Over 76,000 COVID-19 vaccine doses were administered in the municipality of Chisinau during a year of work of the Municipal Vaccination Center. The local public authorities said the municipality of Chisinau reached the highest vaccination rate in the country, of 48%. However, together with the persons who got vaccinated abroad, the estimated rate exceeds 70%, IPN reports.
Of the 76,000 doses, 18,000 were administered as part of the four marathons staged at the Center. Over 48,000 persons were immunized at mobile bus and trolleybus vaccination points.
“These are only some of the impressive figures achieved in the fight against the pandemic, together with a team of professionals who devoted their time to save the lives and protect the health of citizens,” stated mayor Ion Ceban.
“We organized the best vaccination infrastructure in Chisinau and in the Republic of Moldova – a model applied for the first time, which was highly appreciated by the World Health Organization and by the international partners. We took the decision to close the Municipal Vaccination Center and the mobile bus and trolleybus vaccination points on April 1, 2022, at least in the current pandemic situation.”
