The delta variant dominates - plenty of free vaccine times in both regions

The infection control doctor says that the biggest spread of infection right now is among younger people who hold private parties and travel around.

And that when schools and universities start again then the spread of infection will pick up speed again and there is a risk of a new delta wave.

- The infection chain is right now among those who have been out and about and had private parties.

Where you meet and socialize quite intimately for a long time.

This has enabled the infection to spread, says Lisa Labbé Sandelin.

She sees vaccination as a solution to slow the spread of infection.

- It is very important, I think you actually go and get vaccinated and now it is open for everyone to do it, says Lisa Labbé Sadelin ..

At the same time as more young people are infected by the delta variant, there are several available vaccine times in Kalmar County.

At present, there are free vaccine times in almost all municipalities in the county.

Most free vaccine times are in Västervik municipality.

There are also plenty of vaccination times in Kronoberg County.

When SVT Nyheter Småland's reporter tries to book an appointment, it is possible to pick and choose among the times in all municipalities in the county.

- If you want to get vaccinated, there are times, says Annika Tigerhielm, coordinator for phase 4 of the vaccination.

The vaccine coordinator has no explanation for why there are unbooked vaccine times in quantities.

- The pressure on bookings has decreased significantly, it may be because it is a holiday, Annika Tigerhielm says to SVT.

Can you understand why people do not book appointments? 

- I understand, but this is very important if you get a vaccine if you have received an offer, says Annika Tigerhielm.
