68: Today, many older people have taken the opportunity to get vaccinated against COVID-19 without prior registration.
Klaipėda residents aged 65 and over were vaccinated with the AstraZeneca vaccine at a vaccination center located in the mental health center. The most active vaccination in the morning soon waned. Only a few people were drawn to the center.

However, when the vaccine was found to be safe, it was updated. However, many still fear vaccines. It is true that AstraZeneca did not intimidate Klaipeda residents who spoke at the vaccination center on Saturday.

“I got myself vaccinated last week, but with the Pfizer vaccine. They offered me one and I accepted. The hand was a little sore at the injection site, but I didn’t feel any side effects,” said Rima happily.
She initially admitted skeptical of the vaccine.
“But then I thought, if I can contribute so much, why shouldn’t I? After all, in ancient times, smallpox and other diseases were overcome with vaccines. So why resist now? I trusted science, ”Rima opened.
S. Dabravalskis, who runs the vaccination center, says there was no shortage of people until vaccination began. But then the flow slowed down.
“In the morning, the girls worked for a good half hour on their belts. And then they came one by one,” said S. Dabravalskis.
However, vaccination is not promising for everyone.
“It just came to our knowledge then. I live alone. Since last year, I have not been sick or taken any medication. The daughter says: go get vaccinated. I came to be calmer. That crown is already on her throat. You will not listen. nothing else, just the crown and crown. And the masks got bored. When you walk into the store, as soon as you run out of breath, you can already hear someone yelling. Thank yourself and use it if you want. Like what kind of dogs “, said a Klaipėda resident who left the vaccination center.
Until now, vaccination was pre-registered. Vaccination and weekends in a common line this week was decided by the Ministry of Health in consultation with the mayors of cities and districts. This is expected to speed up the vaccination process. The more people gain immunity, the sooner it will be possible to release quarantine restrictions.
