Vaccination in Tartu

Vaccination against SARS coronavirus

How does vaccination against SARS coronavirus work?

All Estonian residents aged 12 and over are welcome to get vaccinated. Please bring your ID to get vaccinated!

• Be there PRECISELY at the scheduled time for your vaccination. If you arrive late, the patients after you will also be affected.
• A mask must be worn when coming to get vaccinated. If you have fallen ill please let us know on 1330.
• The vaccine is injected into a muscle in the upper arm. To ensure a smooth vaccination, we recommend that you dress so that you may easily expose your upper arm.
• You have to register yourself before receiving a dose of the vaccine: your personal identification will be checked, someone will answer your questions and you will be given a vaccination leaflet to read. You can take the leaflet home with you if you wish.
• We ask you to sign a consent form in order to receive the vaccine dose.
• A trained nurse will then administer the vaccinate.
• Take into consideration that you will need to be monitored by a healthcare professional for another 15 minutes after vaccination in case you feel unwell afterwards. 
• Please note that the interval between the administration of COVID-19 vaccines and other vaccines is recommended to be at least 14 days.

Please note that some people may experience side effects after vaccination. Therefore, do not plan physical exercise on the day of vaccination.
