How to Approach Vaccination: Expert Advice

Many today forget about anti-epidemic rules, even though they remain relevant. According to Mary Ter-Stepanian, an associate professor at the Department of Epidemiology, it is very important to continue wearing masks, especially in healthcare facilities where vaccinations are carried out.

In enclosed spaces, where large numbers of people gather and adequate ventilation is not provided due to cold weather, the likelihood of virus transmission significantly increases. To avoid infection, specialists recommend following anti-epidemic rules and always wearing a mask in healthcare facilities.

“The vaccination process is currently quite intense, and even queues are forming at primary healthcare institutions. It is highly desirable to maintain anti-epidemic rules there, so that individuals do not get infected while attending preventive measures, and the vaccination process does not become an additional risk factor,” the expert stated during an interview with reporters.
