"When the vaccination started, my wife and I were among the first to come and get vaccinated. I don't understand what people are afraid of. Different winds should not be trusted with words. Isn't it better to be safe from the virus? Last year, at the height of the epidemic in the summer, we were waiting for the vaccine to come out. It is important to think about both your own and the health of another!" says zheke Uteshov, a resident of Taldykorgan.
Albina Atanasova, a resident of the Koksu district, expressed the same opinion. He urged people not to neglect the epidemic. "Not only a coronavirus, but also a vaccine that will stop any disease? I drew both components of my own free will. Now I'm waiting for a transplant," said a resident of Koksuk.
Currently, explanatory work on vaccinations continues in the region. Recently, the Civil Headquarters of "I am sowing for the country" arrived in Taldykorgan, where he met with residents. They disseminate official information about the fight against the epidemic, vaccination, and its benefits among the population of the country.
