It turns out that when the general population is vaccinated against the coronavirus, people will have to register online (through the esveikata.lt system), and the vaccine will be delivered to the first person who registers. This was announced by the BNS news agency based on the publication of Kauno Dienas.
The former Minister of Health, in principle, does not criticize such an idea. In your opinion, difficulties may arise from the beginning.
“In the first hours, when it starts, it will probably be a ‘Hunger Games’ effect. There are people who are anxious about vaccination (for various reasons, they want to go somewhere, they want to do something), so the beginning may be Like this. You have to tell people that there may be some kind of interruption, but then when the flows disappear, that shouldn’t be a problem. This is probably the most convenient way, “said A. Veryga.
In his opinion, the Esveikata.lt portal itself is quite comfortable to use.
“It is a portal for patients where you can connect. And you can log in and see which institution you are visiting. I look at my data there, everything always connects for me. There I find what medications have been prescribed for me, what visits and exams are scheduled.
I do not see any problem, I use it and I like it, it suits me. Not for everyone, especially older people, this can be very convenient. Therefore, there should probably be another way to register, for example by phone, “said A. Veryga.
The former health minister does not see a more convenient way to allow people to register. In his opinion, it would not be fair to ask for vaccination of all his patients, such as family doctors.
“A family doctor usually has a thousand people in the area (there may be more). Some of them will already be vaccinated, but do you really need to do the work? The family doctor team really has a direct main job: consulting, providing health services. If we had to actively invite people to get vaccinated, then we would have to look for more people, “said A. Veryga.
The greatest communication difficulties
According to the parliamentarian, the main difficulties now with the vaccination process are related to communication.
“The diminishing confidence in some vaccines, the refusal of people to get vaccinated, the desire to choose a vaccine, are things related to communication. And doctors complain that it takes a long time to interpret, to convince some vaccines That is the communication problem ”, said A. Veryga.
Commenting on the news that some countries (the Netherlands, Ireland, Denmark, Norway, Iceland, the Piedmont region of Italy) have postponed vaccination with AstraZeneca, the former Minister of Health emphasized that the decisions were in many cases political.
“The decision is made by a politician and an expert has to calm down. Then dissonance arises. It seems to me that many people are deceived, ”said A. Veryga.
The start of mass vaccination is expected in late spring.
The launch of the mass vaccination is expected by the end of spring, and the representatives of the Ministry of Health (SAM) have not said so far neither the exact date nor the time it will take for those vaccinated.
However, the vaccination procedure will change: when mass vaccination begins, people will have to register to receive the vaccine, writes Kauno diena, cited by BNS.
“When we start mass vaccination, there will be a general registry for all residents, regardless of age, 45 or 21 years. Everyone on the esveikata.lt portal will be able to register for the vaccine in their free time, and if there is not such, queue and wait. Those who do not use a computer or do not know how to register online can do so by phone by calling the vaccination center, “explains Lukas Galkus, Chief Specialist of the Department of Information Resources and Electronic Health System of SAM.
“The sooner you register, the faster you will get the vaccine. Others may have to wait because the vaccine supply is not enough to meet everyone’s needs,” he added, asking if the electronic system would resist the flow of people who want to register for the vaccine.
According to him, when vaccinations for people over 65 are completed, vaccinations will start for younger people and those with chronic diseases.
After the start of mass vaccination, according to a SAM specialist, all people over 16 years of age will be vaccinated, and the start of it will be determined by the Ministry of Health.
