Included in the shipment is also a consent form that must be signed by the guardian and taken with the vaccination.
- Even if the guardian is required by law to give consent to the vaccination, an exception can be made if the young person is judged to be mature enough to make the decision themselves.
We will have experienced school nurses and other professional groups on site at the vaccination centers who can do this if necessary, says Kerstin Jonsson, vaccination coordinator in the Östergötland Region in a press release.
