500 doses of the vaccine will be donated to key public personnel
The vaccines will go to the Storting, the Supreme Court, ministries and key employees of key agencies such as the National Institute of Public Health, the Norwegian Health Directorate, the Civil Protection and Emergency Planning Directorate and NAV. Those members of the government who have not yet been vaccinated will also be vaccinated. In addition, many doses are donated to the Royal Palace.
Vaccination is scheduled for the 21st week and is to be carried out by military personnel.
The government's decision to vaccinate Storting representatives sparked negative reactions. There are opinions in the comments that parliamentarians want to go on holiday thanks to vaccination. On Monday, there was a call from 125 chief doctors from municipalities asking politicians to... change this decision.
Several members of parliament said they did not agree to this round of immunization. They proposed that the vaccines be delivered to teachers.
