Hungary extended the free vaccinations on the border with Ukraine for residents of Transcarpathia at two checkpoints “Záhony-Chop” and “Barabás-Kosino” until the end of August.
UA reports this referring to InfoPost.Media.
Mobile vaccination teams have been set up on the borders with eight countries bordering Hungary. Only for residents of Transcarpathian region of Ukraine did the Hungarian government extend the opportunity to vaccinate until the end of August.
For all neighboring countries, except Ukraine, there are different types of vaccines that are available in the deposits. Residents of Ukraine can be vaccinated with Janssen vaccine by the American company Johnson & Johnson, which demands only one injection.
According to the Hungarian government’s website, between July 2 and 22, 2021, a total of 10,491 people from the regions of neighboring countries bordering Hungary were vaccinated, namely, Ukraine, Serbia, Romania, Croatia, Slovenia, Slovakia and Austria.
Vaccinated residents of Transcarpathian region will be able to obtain a Hungarian certificate of a European standard at the Consulate General of Hungary in Uzhgorod.
To remind, starting August 7, 2021, citizens of Ukraine can cross the Ukrainian-Hungarian border without restrictions imposed because of the spread of coronavirus.
