We reached the point of realization. “At this point, no one should be left out,” Ms. Theodoridou said recently. He even stressed that “since we started talking about an infection that can be prevented with a vaccine, we have beaten another infectious disease of the 21st century.”
He business planning for the supply and distribution of vaccines that will arrive in our country, but also the development of 1,018 vaccination centers in public structures of Primary Health Care, was undertaken by Marios Themistikleous and as he had said:
“Business planning presents a lot of complexity and greater technical difficulties, which are mainly due to the different characteristics of the vaccines of each company. Each vaccine has different storage and distribution specifications, as well as different technical specifications for carrying out the vaccination. Thus, the planning was done with the objective of being able to distribute the vaccines safely throughout the country, even in the most remote places. The effort is made to digitize everything, to digitize the entire process ”.
