Life / Swine flu vaccinations taking place in Poland? [52]

Hi all,

I haven't found any information about swine flue vaccinations taking place in Poland. At least our "home country" is now starting the vaccination to whole population, but since we live here in Poland (are residents here) - we can't get it from home.

Does anyone kwow latest news on this area? I want to have my whole family vaccinated, but don't know where to turn to. Has Poland even ordered the vaccination? If yes, how can us foreigners get that? Or are there any private instances providing the vaccinations?

Thanks for your help...

Well, cost is not the problem - insurance will cover this anyway.

Germany, UK, all Scandinavia etc. will be vaccinating their whole population, so no question that we are not taking it. The question is more or less where to find it. It would be so much easier to do it here in Poland than book flights to home country just for vaccination. Not really making sence. But if needed, so be it.

I see, so no comments on the issue where to get it here in Poland.

Well, I think I need to start booking flights to north to get it - where (by the way) the whole population will be vaccinated, starting phase to phase next week and vaccinations going on till end of the year. Of course, people can deny the vaccination and it is their personal choise - but as it is recommended by our health care system, I will be going after it as well.

No offence, but seriously - do you guys (foreing ppl living in Poland) truly trust and rely on Polish system/judgement when it comes to these issues.

I know that Poland has ordered 4M vaccinations now, but problem is that we (as foreigners) don't have access to those.
