Covid-19: Free vaccine for everyone
Elderly people in special housing, people using home care services and people working in social care will be offered the vaccination first. Then people who live with someone who uses home care services, says Johan Carlson, Head of the Public Health Agency of Sweden (Folkhälsomyndigheten).
In total, there are about 600,000 people in those groups.
It’s expected that vaccinations will start in January but it will take a few months before the first groups are done.
TT: Is it compulsory to get vaccinated?
– Each person can decide for themselves. But I am convinced that most people will want to take the vaccine, says Stefan Löfven.
