Context

Vaccination against COVID-19 started on 27 December 2020 across the European Union, in a moment of unity.

For now, people in priority groups are vaccinated – elderly people or healthcare professionals. But soon there will be enough vaccines for the entire EU population.

Once enough people are vaccinated, we will be able to get our normal lives back, gradually.
