The Department of Health of the Lviv Regional Government reminds that immunity after vaccination weakens after a few months, therefore it is important to follow the schedule of vaccinations and get boosters and additional vaccinations.
29,250 m-RNA vaccines of American production “Comirnaty” were delivered to Lviv Oblast.
“Infectious diseases should not be underestimated, especially during wartime. Given the dire circumstances the country is in, wearing masks, social distancing and quarantine have taken a back seat. However, the constant gathering of a large number of people, whether healthy or with signs of illness, creates all the favorable conditions for the spread of COVID-19. Therefore, it is important to make all vaccinations according to the full course of vaccination”, – said the director of the department, Orest Chemeris.
As reported in the Lviv Regional Center for Disease Control and Prevention of the Ministry of Health, currently in the Lviv Oblast there are Komirnati and Koronavak vaccines against covid.
