Two new mobile flu vaccination points have opened in Moscow — on Vorobyovy Hills and in Zaryadye Park. This was reported by Anastasia Rakova, Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Social Development.
“We strive to ensure that the opportunity to take care of yourself is always nearby — on the way to work, during a walk or leisure time. Therefore, we are opening flu vaccination points in popular urban spaces. At Vorobyovy Gory, we chose a cable car cabin, popular among Muscovites and visitors to the capital, for this purpose. We transformed it into an art object where you can get a flu shot. Another point opened in Zaryadye Park, where the pavilion became part of the landscape. Now, Muscovites can get vaccinated outside of clinics at 20 mobile vaccination points,” noted Anastasia Rakova.
During the vaccination period, the cabin of the Moscow cable car with the medical station will remain stationary. The others will continue to run across the Moscow River but with unusual decoration. One of the cabins has been styled as a virus, and on the ones following it, the phrase “Keep your distance from the flu” has been placed. This is done to attract more attention to seasonal prevention of infectious disease and to remind about the importance of taking care of health.
The point is located near the entrance to the ropeway station on Kosygin Street. It operates on Mondays from 14:00 to 20:00, and from Tuesday to Sunday — from 11:00 to 20:00.
In addition, a separate orange-red pavilion has been installed in the central part of Zaryadye Park. Vaccinations can be done there on weekdays from 12:00 to 20:00, and on weekends from 10:00 to 20:00.
There are a total of 20 mobile vaccination points operating in Moscow. Of these, 18 sites are located near metro stations, Moscow Central Circle and Moscow Central Diameters in various districts of the capital, including Zelenograd, Troitsky, and Novomoskovsky administrative districts. All mobile points operate daily, no prior registration is required.
Before vaccination, the doctor conducts an examination and checks for contraindications. On average, the entire procedure takes 10–15 minutes. It is sufficient to bring your passport, and if available, the compulsory medical insurance policy.
You can also get a free flu vaccination at all city polyclinics. Registration for vaccination is available in the mobile application “EMIAS.INFO.” Children are vaccinated at schools and kindergartens with the consent of parents or legal representatives. Organizations and enterprises can invite a mobile medical team to vaccinate employees at the workplace.
This procedure reduces the risk of contracting influenza and developing severe complications. Inactivated vaccines are used for prevention — they do not contain live virus and cannot cause flu. The composition of the vaccines is updated annually based on the recommendations of the World Health Organization and forecasts of the strains expected in the new epidemic season.
