Flu vaccinations to begin in mid-October in Greece
Published
Health authorities in Greece are preparing for the start of the new seasonal flu vaccination period. According to recent statements by the president of EINAP, Matina Pagoni, the process is expected to officially begin in mid-October.
Vaccination is considered the most important preventive measure for protecting the population, especially for vulnerable groups, such as the elderly and individuals with chronic diseases. Experts emphasize that timely immunization of the body is essential before the peak of the virus outbreak during the winter months.
Citizens belonging to high-risk groups are encouraged to contact their personal physician to receive the necessary instructions. The process will be carried out through health centers and pharmacies, and access to vaccines will be free for those who meet the criteria set by the relevant authorities.
This year's vaccination campaign aims to avoid pressure on the national health system, which is called upon to manage both flu cases and other respiratory infections. Adherence to personal hygiene measures remains, at the same time, a key ally for protecting public health during the autumn and winter.
