Vaccination during the war:.
vaccinated in all regions except Donetsk and Lugansk regions - there are no regulatory, legal or organizational grounds for stopping vaccination. However, a significant obstacle to vaccination is the reduction of infrastructure;
vaccinated with only two vaccines: CoronaVac and Pfizer - according to the Ministry of Health, they are enough for everyone who wants to get vaccinated. There are no Moderna and AstraZeneca vaccines in the country;
for safety reasons and due to the reorientation of health workers, the work of a thousand vaccination points, almost a thousand mobile teams and about 350 mass vaccination centers was stopped;
Additional brigades are working to vaccinate internally displaced persons and people living in remote areas to the west.
