The head of the Crimean Ministry of Health recalled that it is necessary to undergo immunization before the seasonal rise in the incidence of ARVI and influenza. This can be done in any medical organization — a clinic, a medical outpatient clinic, a paramedic and obstetric station. Employers can initiate organized vaccination of their employees; to do this, they must contact the head of the nearest clinic.
It is recommended for all categories of the population to be vaccinated; children can be vaccinated from six months. Before the injection, the patient is examined by a medical professional. After vaccination, it is recommended not to wet the injection site for three days, not to visit the sauna, not to drink alcohol, and to avoid excessive physical exertion.
