Zurich releases 30,000 new vaccination appointments in pharmacies
The Swiss canton of Zurich has released 30,000 new vaccination appointments in pharmacies.
The appointments are valid immediately and will be available in the city’s pharmacies.
These appointments are only available to people 18 years of age and older, the city said in a press release.
The main reason for this is that only the Moderna vaccine is used in pharmacies in the canton.
This vaccine, unlike that from Pfizer/Biontech, has only been approved for people aged 18 and over.
These are the only two vaccines that are being administered in Switzerland.
