In one year, more than 13,000 boys aged over 11 were vaccinated against the human papillomavirus (HPV), the National Public Health Centre (NVSC) announced.

Lithuania on Sunday started to vaccinate its medical workers against the coronavirus in a coordinated push by the European Union against the global pandemic.

Lithuanian Health Minister Arunas Dulkys expects the medical community to be vaccinated against COVID-19 by the end of January if vaccine deliveries go smoothly.

Lithuanian municipalities are ready to organize the COVID-19 vaccination process, but want the central government to clarify the procedure, President Gitanas Nauseda said on Monday.

As the European Commission said vaccination from the coronavirus should start on December 27, Lithuanian President Gitanas Nauseda says Lithuania should stick to this schedule.
