We are assuming with a probability of more than 90% that children will go back to school again in September in full-time education – Health Minister Adam Nedzelsky said today in Polsat News.
– We suppose the whole school year, I hope, will begin as it always has begun with the meeting and we will simply continue to learn – Niedzielski said.
When asked about children’s vaccines against the coronavirus, Nidzelsky indicated that there is currently such a possibility for children in the 12-15-year-old group.
We have more than 700,000 vaccines. children in this group. That’s about 25%, but remember we have a holiday season and kids go on vacation with their parents or on their own, so that’s not necessarily a priority for them at the moment – Minister said. – But as we approach the beginning of the school year, I hope that this topic of vaccination will be more and more – added.
When asked whether it is possible to vaccinate young children, Nidzelsky stressed that the most important thing in this matter is safety.
– If studies are submitted, and those studies are verified by the EMA, but also, of course, analyzed by our dealing offices, we will allow such a possibility – Nedzelsky noted, noting that the results of clinical trials for vaccinating children aged 5 to 12 years will be presented in September.
