Covid-19 vaccine to be free of charge in Moscow: Mayor

Vaccination against the coronavirus infection in Moscow will be free of charge, Russian capital Moscow’s Mayor Sergey Sobyanin said on Friday.

"As soon as it (a vaccine) is available, we will launch an inoculation campaign," he said in an interview with the Vesti news program on the Rossiya-1 television channel. "Vaccination will be free at all out-patient medical establishments."

He also called for vaccinating against season flu to avoid two autumn-time epidemics simultaneously. "A lot of work is to be done. We are getting prepared for that," he added.
