Government will create special immunization agency

The Cabinet of Ministers will create a special body that will make decisions regarding immunizations, Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko announced during a meeting with immunologists, according to the Premier's official web-site.

According to her, this will be either a scientific, scientific-organizational council or expert group. "But this needs to be a constantly functioning group, whose composition may change. The result of their work will be a clearly outlined strategy for immunizing the Ukrainian population," Yulia Tymoshenko noted.

"Today we're holding a meeting to identify tactics and strategies on immunization in Ukraine. Today, there are difficult epidemic conditions, Ukraine and the world face a great challenge, we have to think on the one hand how to prevent the spread of the virus, protect people and create conditions so that the epidemic ends as soon as possible, and on the other hand we need to think about a strategy for organizing the immunization system in Ukraine," the head of government believes.

"When the country faces such difficult challenges as today's epidemic, we need to not only think about how to protect people, but how to create a strategy for protecting our people," she concluded.
