A vaccination center will be opened at the A Le Coq Sport venue in Tartu with a capacity to vaccinate up to 1,500 people at a time. The exact opening time of the centre depends on the arrival of vaccine deliveries.
The Tartu City Government, Tartu University Hospital Foundation and Tartu Ambulance Foundation have begun preparations for the opening of the center at Ihaste tee 7.
Safe vaccination areas, vaccination sites and a surveillance area with physicians will be set up in the center and it will be possible to vaccinate 1,000-1,500 people a day.
Tartu Deputy Mayor Mihkel Lees said the building is in a good location, as one third of Tartu s residents live in the Annelinna City District. There are good parking facilities, close proximity to bus stops, spacious rooms and good ventilation.
