To ensure the quality of the vaccination campaign, five teams have been set up to provide vaccinations to all employees of these priority groups both at medical facilities and outside of them in a mobile mode.

Both vaccines are effective and are approved for use in the European Union and many other countries around the world. All healthcare workers who provide vaccinations and are part of mobile medical teams have undergone appropriate training, education and received certificates," said Iryna Kulish, acting head of the Center for Preventive Medicine.
