About the start of the flu vaccination campaign!
Vaccination against influenza is the main and most effective way to prevent the disease. This year, we plan to vaccinate at least 45% of the population. Special attention will be paid to risk groups, namely, children, pregnant women, people with chronic diseases, people over 60 years of age and medical professionals. In this category, we plan to cover at least 75% of the population.
Influenza remains one of the most severe viral diseases, which is transmitted by airborne droplets, and can simultaneously affect large masses of the population. Anyone can get the flu. Every year, during seasonal epidemics, flu affects from 5 to 10% of the world's population, which is about 1 billion people. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), up to 650 thousand people die from influenza every year. Only timely vaccination is most likely to help a person save life and health in the event of infection with dangerous influenza viruses.
You can get vaccinated in state medical organizations at the place of residence, work or study, as well as in non-state medical organizations that have a license to perform vaccination works (services).
