New Vaccination Program in Hungarian Schools for Children Under 12 Years Old
Schools will host coronavirus vaccination days on August 30-31 and September 2-3, the government’s information website shows.

Children under 12 years of age who for some reason cannot make an appointment online for inoculation will have an opportunity to be inoculated.

Parents must inform schools before August 25 whether they want their children to be vaccinated.

Pfizer vaccines will be administered to the children by involving school physicians and family doctors.

Nearly 200,000 children in the 12-17 age group have registered for the inoculation, of whom 162,000 have been inoculated.
