(27 Dec 2020) A nurse at the main coronavirus hospital in the Polish capital Warsaw received the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine on Sunday, the first person to be vaccinated in Poland as part of a coordinated rollout across the European Union.
Alicja Jakubowska, head nurse at the Interior Ministry hospital, was given the shot by a medical director of a temporary hospital at Warsaw's National Stadium, Dr Artur Zaczyński.
Doctors and other health workers were also vaccinated.
Meanwhile, vaccinations in dozens of other hospitals were scheduled to begin across Poland on Sunday.
Poland received its first shipments of the vaccine a day earlier as part of an EU plan to rollout vaccinations in a coordinated effort across the 27 countries of the bloc.
According to the Polish government vaccination plan, health care workers are first in line to get the vaccine.
Later, when the mass vaccination programme begins in January, others will qualify, including senior citizens, teachers and police officers and other first responders.
