Access to the Vaccination Portal for the arrangement of appointments by individuals aged 59 and 60

  • 124,165 individuals received the 1st dose by April 7
  • 50,461 individuals received both doses by April 7
  • 15,020 appointments only for individuals aged 59 and 60

According to the National Vaccination Plan against COVID-19, the vaccinations of the population continue on the basis of the age criterion. Specifically, only individuals aged 59 and 60 will have priority for arranging an appointment on Friday, April 9th, from 8 am to 8 pm. A total of 15,020 vaccination appointments will be available at Vaccination Centres across Cyprus.

The above adjustment was made after consultation with the Deputy Ministry of Innovation, in order to reduce the technical issues by overloading the system. For this purpose, older individuals (aged 61 and over) will not have access to the Vaccination Portal on April 9th, instead, they will be given the opportunity to make an appointment proportionately, on Saturday, April 10th.

As of April 7th, a total of 174,626 vaccinations have been administered, of which 124,165 concern the administration of the 1st dose, and 50,461 concern the administration of both doses of the vaccine. The 1st dose of the vaccine has so far been administered to 9,788 individuals who fall into the vulnerable groups of the population.
