As noted by Protsenko, vaccination in large shopping centers and other public spaces is a global practice.

"This is normal.

The task is to ensure maximum accessibility ... I cannot understand what the danger is and what is the difference between a vaccination room in a polyclinic, which is organized according to certain SanPiN requirements, if the same requirements are organized at the shopping center sites, ”he said. 

According to him, it is necessary to increase the number of vaccination points as the pace of the vaccination campaign grows, since there is no benefit from many empty places.

Earlier, the head of the Russian Ministry of Health, Mikhail Murashko, spoke about the progress of vaccination against COVID-19 in the North Caucasus Federal District.
