Vaccines have been saving lives since 1796, when the first smallpox inoculation was made.
April 24 marks the start of World Immunization Week. Meanwhile, Ukraine has been at war for two months now. However, the war does not cancel the spread of dangerous infections, but, on the contrary, contributes to their spread.
Therefore, it is very important to follow the National immunization schedule (if you stayed in Ukraine) or the immunization schedule of the country to which you had to move.
To get the vaccine, go to the nearest outpatient/hospital that provides primary care. In Ukraine, vaccinations made in
National immunization schedule, free of charge.
