“Seeing last week that people are no longer interested in the first AstraZeneca vaccine and almost no one chooses it, we decided to invite people who have already passed 4 weeks since the first vaccination to come to the vaccination center. It is obvious that there are many people who want the second vaccine earlier than planned and this caused problems ”, said K. Krasauskas in the program“ Delfi diena ”.
However, he emphasized, live tail is currently the only method that can be used, as the national registry system does not allow the second AstraZeneca vaccine to advance.
According to K. Krasauskas, after 4 pm On Monday there were no queues at the vaccination center, but there are still vaccines, so the municipality will continue to invite residents to prevail with the second AstraZeneca.
“This time we will get along much better, there are two separate lines. One for people who sign up, those people travel on their own time, and people who line up should self-assess the chances of being there and receiving the vaccine. It is likely that in the morning more people will arrive, towards the evening the queue decreases ”, said K. Krasauskas.
“The vaccine does not have to be stored in warehouses or on shelves, it has to reach the people who want it as soon as possible and we are doing everything possible to make that possible,” he added.
Last week, people also flooded the Kaunas Vaccination Center, but, as its manager, Justinas Dzidzevičius emphasizes, there is no live queue at this center; registration is required.
“There is no live queue in Kaunas, people were misled by the information that was announced in the evening that a live queue is forming at the campaigns organized by the National Blood Center. A large number of people arrived who misinterpreted the information provided, “said J. Dzidzevičius.
According to him, there are also residues of the AstraZeneca vaccine in Kaunas.
“It really is a holdover, so we are waiting for a national decision on how to deal with the booster vaccination. We also have vacancies for Pfizer vaccination for vaccination this week,” said the director of the Kaunas Vaccination Center.
Today, the Pfizer vaccine remains the most popular in both Vilnius and Kaunas. It is true, as K. Krasauskas, the vaccination coordinator of the Vilnius city municipality, warns, and it is not being seized as quickly as before.
“We still have vacancies from Pfizer this week and they are not dissolving as quickly anymore. With the opening of mass vaccination in the next two weeks, we will see the desire to vaccinate generally suppressed and we are reaching 50-55%. limit from which in Israel and the United Kingdom there are even challenges to invite people to get vaccinated, no matter what the vaccine is, ”said K. Krasauskas.
“With the increase in the doses of the vaccine, we will gradually move to the local centers, we will return to the polyclinics, both in the city and in private institutions, we are happy that we also use pharmacies. Basically, the vaccination process will have to become such that it will be an emotional decision for people who have not been vaccinated so far: I came to the supermarket to buy, there is a nearby pharmacy that offers vaccines, I went to get vaccinated. It will be necessary to move towards a more decentralized model, “he said at Delfi Day.
