So far in Kosovo, about 2 students, aged 200 to 12, have been vaccinated. While the vaccination of students is being carried out with mobile teams only in the capital of Pejë, the Ministry of Health says that soon the same will be done in all schools of Kosovo. From this institution they said that the administration of the third booster dose of the vaccine against COVID will soon begin, while the citizens welcome such a thing.
The "1 Tetori" hall in Pristina, which is also the largest vaccination center against COVID-19, was quiet and with little movement on Friday.
The few citizens who came at noon came to get the seasonal flu vaccine, because they had already been immunized with both doses of the coronavirus vaccine. However, the greatest interest seems to be in secondary schools, where the vaccination of students is continuing.
The Ministry of Health has said that so far, about 2 students have been vaccinated, and that the vaccination of this age group has started in Pristina and Peja, to continue in the following days in every school.
Meanwhile, the administration of the booster dose and the third dose of vaccines has also been announced in Kosovo. The Ministry of Health says that this issue is still being addressed in the committee for immunization, and that it is expected to start something similar in Kosovo soon.
"Vaccination of students in schools with the vaccine against COVID-19 has started in Pristina, in Pejë there was also vaccination in schools, while in the future it will take place in every school where the students have received confirmation from their parents by signing the Declaration of Compliance for vaccination and where schools are willing to host vaccination teams. It is the beginning of the process and so far about 2.200 students aged 12-15 have been vaccinated against COVID-19. The MOH expects interest to grow. The administration of the booster dose and the third dose is expected to be done soon, since there are enough vaccines in stock, it seems that there will be interest from the citizens and this issue has also been addressed by the Committee for Immunization against COVID-19", said the Ministry of Health.
