The minister of Health, Alexandru Rafila, declared that in Romania there are already sufficient quantities of vaccine adapted to the new strains of coronavirus, according to Agerpres.

„In Romania there are already sufficient quantities of vaccine with the new formula, that combined vaccine (…) based on messenger RNA for the currently circulating strains BA 4, BA 5. All people who have completed a full vaccination schedule can vaccinate with this product, people over the age of 12. We especially recommend it to people over 65 and to people who have chronic diseases. (…) Vaccination is not mandatory. Those who want the new vaccine are vaccinated with the condition that they have completed the initial vaccination schedule. (…) Vaccination can be done both at the family doctor and at the level of vaccination centers,” said Rafila.

„This vaccine has no particular adverse reactions compared to the other vaccine variants that were the basis of the primary scheme and can be administered simultaneously with other vaccines, and I am referring here, above all, to the flu vaccine,” the minister explained.
