“I am calling on the population to be vaccinated, please come. Every day from 10 o'clock in the morning in the vaccination room of the polyclinic of the RMMC, you can consult a doctor and be vaccinated,” Naniev addressed his fellow citizens.

Earlier it was reported that the Health Ministry had requested the vaccine in August, however, due to technical issues between the companies, the supply of the vaccine to the Republic was delayed. Also, for the vaccinated, it remains a problem to recognize certificates on the territory of Russia and assign a QR code through the State Services, the issue is being resolved by the government of the Republic.
