Some hospital-based COVID-19 vaccination centers may reopen this fall after moving vaccinations exclusively to family doctors’ offices from July 1.

“In the next period, we will prepare the necessary legislation so that there will be vaccination centers in health centers – not the vaccination centers that were there before, but in health centers. We need to prepare – and this is very important – a campaign this fall, because if there is really little interest in vaccination now, then in the fall, when doses of the adapted vaccine will appear, we would like to have as many of ours as possible. fellow citizens who can be vaccinated, and this should be promoted,” Health Minister Alexandru Rafila said at a press conference on Tuesday.

Also, family doctors will pay for lost vaccine doses only if they reach 50%: “Also, the problem raised by family doctors, we are solving by successively increasing the acceptable share of vaccine losses to 50% to encourage family doctors. to do this procedure or to group and send their patients to a colleague who vaccinates, as well as to open vaccination centers in health care facilities in the near future,” says the Minister of Health.
