Index – National – Here is the vaccination plan for Budapest

“Today I am going to the Prime Minister’s Office where I will present the vaccination plan for the capital. People will only really have confidence, the desire to vaccinate will only increase if we speak clearly, act predictably. At the moment, a lot depends on whether or not people trust the vaccine, ”Gergely Karácsony posted Budapest’s six-point vaccination plan on the community page with this statement.

In his post, the mayor stressed that the Budapest leadership is ready to help the government move faster and smoother with vaccination.

“We are all interested in getting as many people as possible vaccinated as soon as possible. It is the solution to finally free ourselves from our slavery so that we can finally be together, go to the theater, the cinema or the restaurant, shake hands and hug, “he wrote.

• In the first point, in addition to the surgeries of the GPs, the Christmas parties, together with the districts, propose the establishment of dedicated vaccination points, thus speeding up the procedure. A total of 30 vaccination points can be established and 3,000 people can be vaccinated per center per day.
• In the second point, they commit to transplant workers or newcomers (nursing homes, homeless people) and critical infrastructure personnel of the capital (BKK, FKF and other companies) with the involvement of doctors.
• They also offer our appointment system, which has already proven its worth during population screening, to municipal and government vaccination points – it says in the third point.
• In addition to providing locations for vaccination centers, they can also help volunteers and police officers get vaccinations, read the fourth.
• They are launching an information campaign to increase the propensity for vaccination. It is very important that people have confidence in vaccines – they point out in the fifth.
• Currently, vaccination is only possible under strict conditions in a doctor’s office, so a temporary waiver from the government is needed to start mass vaccinations, says the sixth point. Sports and cultural institutions may be the most suitable, where removable places can be easily solved with washable and disinfectable screens, they point out. There are even concerts in London at the big vaccination points, so they combine the pleasant with the useful. Why not in Budapest? They ask the question.

He closes his post as mayor: I hope we can work with the government. Our common interest is to vaccinate as many people as possible in the shortest possible time.
