- We have about 160,000 orders. We are delivering 100 doses each to individual points. We will see what the so-called vaccination rate will be this time, that is, how many people will want to be vaccinated. On Friday morning, a list of vaccination points will be available online, and it will be possible to check where we have the closest one and go for a vaccination," announced Deputy Health Minister Wojciech Konieczny in an interview on RMF radio. We checked whether it was easy to make an appointment for vaccination through my IKP.
There are already referrals for the COVID-19 vaccination. How about booking appointments?

As the deputy health minister admitted, the wave of illnesses has accelerated this year, and we have already been at its peak for a week.
- The virus is changing its nature, and who knows if we will not diverge in the next years with the so-called seasonality. This will make it more difficult to fight it, because companies that develop vaccines also need to have time," Wojciech Konieczny pointed out.
Although the first vaccines against the latest COVID-19 mutations were registered some time ago, Poland has not received shipments.
- The Law and Justice government has abandoned the COVID-19 joint vaccine procurement formula within the EU, Minister Izabela Leszczyna explained in late September.
As a result, the first shipments of vaccines didn't arrive until October, and the e-Health Center began making referrals in the closing week by the end of the day all Poles should already have them in their patient accounts. Enrollment for vaccinations has also started. We decided to check whether you can book an appointment in the myIKP app without any problems. In Warsaw, you can make an appointment for vaccination even for today. The situation is similar in other provincial cities. However, there are problems in county towns. For example, in Piaseczno or Piñczów there are no slots to book.
