According to him, experts have developed standard operating procedures that govern all stages of drug delivery and use.

Their implementation guarantees the maximum effectiveness of vaccination, the head of the Ministry of Health noted.

“To prepare for mass vaccination, we instructed the regions to increase the number of vaccination points and their throughput,” TASS quotes Murashko.

Earlier, President Vladimir Putin, during a meeting with government members, instructed to switch from large-scale to mass vaccination of Russians against coronavirus from next week.

Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova said that the relevant departments are ready to fulfill the order, and added that by the end of January, 2.1 million doses of the vaccine will go into civilian circulation.
