The number of recovered people is constantly increasing, currently 1,709,370 people, and the number of active infected people has decreased to 99,318 people. 1,858 coronavirus patients are being treated in hospital, 56 of them are on ventilators. We are in the descending phase of the fifth wave of the epidemic, which is why the government has introduced epidemiological restrictions and the obligation to wear masks has ended. The vaccination campaign will continue this afternoon and Saturday at the hospital vaccination points.
Vaccination is still a priority for the unvaccinated and those who received their previous vaccination more than 4 months ago. The booster vaccination is recommended for everyone who received the previous vaccination more than 4 months ago. By taking the third vaccination, protection can be increased to 80-90% again. The government continues to provide the opportunity to be vaccinated for everyone who wants to take advantage of the opportunity to be vaccinated. Vaccination is still possible at hospital vaccination points, family doctors and family pediatricians. The registration and appointment website is constantly open, and there will be vaccination campaign days every week in March as well.
