Therefore, the online scheduling platform will be modified so that elderly and vulnerable people should take priority in appointments.

The goal is that during a day 25% of the appointments for the anti-Covid jab should be destined to people from the key sectors and 75% to elderly and vulnerable people, the Vaccination Coordination Committee has announced on Thursday.

“For the people registered by the employer on the vaccination platform, the number of the appointments will not exceed 25% of the ones available on a daily basis , and those registered will log on individually based on their personal identity code.
