In the clip, some Gothenburgers react to the vaccination rate in the city.

Only 30 percent have started vaccination in the region's capital, according to the latest comparable municipal figures from the Public Health Agency, FHM.

- It is deplorable, says Dane Kreckovic from Gothenburg, 41, who has not yet received any vaccination. 

Used all vaccines

Vaccination coordinator in the Västra Götaland region, Kristine Rygge, says that all large cities in Sweden have a lower proportion of vaccinated.

Vaccinations are distributed according to age, with the oldest first, and there are more young people living in the big cities.

But why Gothenburg is worse off than both Malmö, 32%, and Stockholm, 37%, she has no answer to.

- We have vaccinated with all the vaccines we have and followed the priority order that is in place, she says.
