Hallengren gives information about the autumn vaccinations

Today it’s time again: A press conference with the Minister of Social Affairs about covid vaccination.

In the morning, Minister of Social Affairs Lena Hallengren (S) will hold a press conference together with the Public Health Agency’s Director General Karin Tegmark Wisell to talk about recommendations for the autumn for vaccination against covid-19.

The authority’s current advice is that everyone who is 12 years and older is vaccinated, that everyone who is 18 and up also takes a third dose and that everyone who is 65 and older also takes a fourth.

According to the latest statistics from the Swedish Public Health Agency (May 19), 65 percent of the population aged 18 and up have received three doses of covid vaccine.

In the group twelve years and older, 85 percent have received at least two doses.
