- A few days ago we went out to the municipalities and said that we are doubling the pace, so you must have more staff.
You can not do this with the planning, it overturns all plans every time they make a change, says the regional board chairman Mikael Johansson (M).
The reason for the reduction is that Pfizer, which manufactures the vaccine, reduces deliveries for four weeks.
This means that approximately 15 percent fewer doses will be delivered to Sweden.
Reduction in Kalmar and Kronoberg
Therefore, the Swedish Public Health Agency made a new distribution between the regions.
But at the same time as the Jönköping region is allowed to keep its approximately 3,000 doses a week, the distribution to Kronoberg is halved from 2,000 to 1,000, a distribution that Mikael Johansson does not understand.
- If you want to make a change, it must be fair, he says.
Region Kalmar has also received reduced deliveries - by a third.
- It is very sad that it comes at short notice.
It adds a lot to the planning.
There will be problems, I will not stick under the chair with that, says Mathias Landerdahl, head of medicine in Kalmar.
SVT is looking for the Swedish Public Health Agency for a comment.
In Klippet you can hear Mikael Johansson how this affects the vaccine plans in Kronoberg.
