Recently, the governor of the Kostroma region set a task for the region’s medical workers to achieve mass vaccination against coronavirus in the countryside. This is necessary precisely due to the fact that the quarantine measures taken turned out to be effective: there are only a few people who have recovered from COVID in the Kostroma outback (which is good), but therefore collective immunity in rural areas is absent – and this is bad, since it is fraught with the arrival of a “third wave” of the epidemic residents of large cities will send their children to the village to see their grandmother.
Therefore, vaccination in the outback is necessary – and today Sergey Sitnikov, during his working trip to the Galich region, took the time to see how the feldsher-midwife station in the village of Toltunovo copes with this task.
It turns out that it is doing well – announcements of vaccination against COVID were posted here a week ago, and the first 20 people are now on the list for vaccination. The villagers will be able to get it without hindrance – in the new brick building, which the FAP moved to a couple of years ago, there are all the necessary conditions for storing the vaccine.
In addition, the capabilities of a mobile FAP will be used for the vaccination campaign in the Galich region. The Polyclinic on Wheels delivers vaccines to villages in a special container. The corresponding car was purchased for the district hospital under the presidential national project.
