All vaccines are available in Ukraine - Ministry of Health

In Ukraine, all vaccines are available in accordance with the vaccination schedule and a shortage of these drugs is not expected. This was stated by First Deputy Minister of Health Oleksandr Komarida, Ukrinform writes .

We have a schedule for the receipt of vaccines - both from international partners and at the expense of the state budget. All of them, in accordance with the vaccination schedule, are available, and their shortage is not foreseen. Therefore, you need to be vaccinated, you need to protect yourself in accordance with the vaccination schedule, he said.

He said that from the very beginning of the full-scale war, the Ministry of Health had taken measures to redistribute both medicines and vaccines from the eastern regions to the western regions so that internally displaced persons would not have problems with access to any treatment or vaccination.

Also, there is enough vaccine against coronavirus in the public domain. There are fewer vaccination points, but vaccinations are carried out every day, the official noted.

At the same time, the deputy minister expressed hope that there would be no shortage of medicines.

In Ukraine, before the start of a full-scale war, most medicines were domestically produced.

This not only gives Ukrainians the opportunity to be treated with quality medicine, but also helps the Ukrainian economy,” the First Deputy Head of the Ministry of Health concluded.
