During the summer, there has been a shortage of vaccines on Gotland.

Due to this, Region Gotland and Region Västmanland decided to redistribute 550 vaccine doses to the island.

As of Tuesday, July 27, the extra vaccine doses are available for booking.

- With these extra doses, we can give people who have taken their first dose in another region, their second dose here.

It is positive that more people can be fully vaccinated and receive full protection against covid-19, says Christine Senter, vaccine coordinator on Gotland, in a press release.
