“It just came to our notice then. … The last few months will again become clear from the news, when we will know what quantities of vaccines will be delivered to Lithuania in March,” the minister told LRT radio on Tuesday.
He expected more vaccinations to be recorded during this time as well, which would further expand vaccination opportunities.
On Tuesday, the minister and experts are preparing to present vaccination plans for priority groups for the next three months.
According to A. Dulkis, it is currently known that regular vaccine shipments will arrive in Lithuania every week for the next three months, allowing for clearer prioritization.
The minister also says that the data on the vaccination process is expected to be as public as possible.
The first batch of vaccines was distributed to five major hospitals in the country last weekend, medical vaccination began, and these doses of vaccine were used in the middle of last week. A person needs two doses of the vaccine three weeks apart to develop immunity.
On Tuesday, doctors are scheduled to continue getting vaccinated in two subsequent batches of the vaccine.
The BioNTech and Pfizer vaccine is the first and so far the only one authorized in the European Union.
