According to Hřib, in the “state” vaccination centers in the metropolis, approvals from the Pfizer company are accumulating, and thus they are lying idle. On Monday morning, there must be around 33.5 thousand batches “in stock”, ie more than double the amount from the previous week, always new deliveries always come from the central stock during Tuesday.
“I have therefore sent a letter to the Prime Minister. I challenged him to arrange for these vaccines to be vaccinated in Prague or to be distributed elsewhere. The basic problem is that mine, as a region, does not have the opportunity to coordinate vaccination with a safe Pfizer, “said Hřib.
The leader of the Prague coalition complains that the head of government refused “unlike other regions” to leave the responsibility for the application of security to Pfizer to the local government. According to the mayor, Babiš justified this with an “excuse” for the absence of powerful “freezers” owned by the metropolis.
Mushroom to say that in January Prague bought sufficiently powerful freezing equipment needed for storage. Last week, about 23,000 people in the capital received safe Pfizer. For this Monday and Tuesday, the reservations were for less than seven thousand people.
It is the day before the race and today there are 33,528 doses of the Pfizer infirmary in Prague. That’s more than twice as much as last Monday. It therefore accumulates in Prague at state vaccination sites. I appeal again to the premiere to ensure their speedy vaccination in Prague or delivery to other regions.

“Daily numbers are no longer rising in Prague. They are basically stagnant. They are similar to January. At the same time, it really depends on every day. In the Czech Republic, about two hundred people die of covid-19 every day. That is why it is necessary not to wait and be vaccinated with anything, “the mayor emphasized.
The prime minister did not comment on the mayor’s allegations until the deadline for the issue. The Ministry of Health, led by Jan Blatný (for YES), rejects any doubts on its part. “All hospitals in Prague are vaccinated according to plan and supplies are protected. The mayor apparently turned on a filter showing the conversion of capacities to the ratio of appointments. Anyway, the vaccinations are running, “watch the resort over the weekend through the Smart Quarantine system.
Prague will have its own vaccination center
The prime minister himself boasted of a growing rate of vaccination on Sunday. “Hi people, we inoculated more than a million Protectors by yesterday. In the last week, we have been vaccinating faster than Germany, Poland and Slovakia, “Babiš said in his regular program.
In April @PrahaEU open the high – capacity vaccination site in @KCP_CZ. The vaccination center will be designed to have a daily capacity of 200 to 1,000 people vaccinated…https://t.co/XCU3cwovrn# COVID-19 #Prague #okovanovani #hshmp @HasiciPraha @CCK_Tweetuje pic.twitter.com/WOAz9rC5yb

From the beginning of next week, a large-capacity vaccination center in the practice of the Prague Congress Center (KCP) should start working in a trial mode in the capital. The metropolitan vaccination center has the ambition to “download” part of Pfizer’s growing shipments safely, speeding up their application.
Initially, KCP requires “giving” two hundred doses a day, as a result at least a thousand. “Capacity is scalable with respect to fluctuations in protected supplies. In this way, we are fulfilling the principle of our strategy not to allow us to have protection and have nowhere to vaccinate it, “said Councilor Milena Johnová (Prague herself).
