Covid-19 vaccination

Read useful information about vaccination against the Covid19 pandemic and how to obtain a vaccination certificate

BENEFITS OF VACCINATION

  • It is a simple, safe and effective way to protect people from harmful diseases and their consequences.
  • We protect ourselves so that if we come into contact with the virus we do not become seriously ill, but only have mild symptoms.
  • The more people we vaccinate, the less risk of the pandemic spreading to those around us.
  • By reducing the number of people who become ill, we help doctors to more effectively care for those who have contracted the virus.

COMPLY WITH THE PROTECTION MEASURES

Like all vaccines, Covid-19 vaccines do not provide 100% protection. It is important after you have been vaccinated to continue to follow all protective measures such as wearing a mask, keeping your distance and washing your hands frequently.

SIDE EFFECTS OF VACCINATION

The unwanted side effects that may occur are mild and transient, such as pain in the arm at the injection site, fever, nausea, myalgia and headache. All these symptoms subside quickly. It is very rare for a severe allergic reaction to the vaccine to occur. If it does occur, it usually occurs within minutes and the staff administering the vaccine are trained to deal with any allergic reactions immediately.
