The Gävleborg region will follow the recommendation and pause vaccinations with Astra Zeneca's vaccine with immediate effect.
- Half of the vaccine disappears, says Tina Mansson Söderlund, vaccine coordinator Region Gävleborg.
However, the following vaccination sites to continue vaccinating with another vaccine on Tuesday:
Gävle University
Ljusdal health center
Bollnäs culture house
The family doctor emergency room in Söderhamn
Health partner in Sandviken
However, it is unclear how the Swedish Public Health Agency's recommendation will affect vaccination in Gävleborg in the long term.
During Tuesday morning, the appointment for vaccinations at 1177 was also temporarily closed due to the Public Health Agency's decision.
In Swedish Radio P1 Morgon, vaccine coordinator Richard Bergströmsvarar answered the question what to think if you received the astra vaccine.
- Talk to your doctor if you are worried and be alert for symptoms such as bruising, then you can contact your doctor.
There is information on 1177 about the side effects of vaccines, he says.
