Rector’s announcement on the organisation of COVID-19 vaccinations at the University Vaccination Point

The registration deadline for vaccinations at the University Vaccination Point has been extended until 12th May (Wednesday).
We publish an announcement of the University of Warsaw Rector on setting up the University Vaccination Point.

Dear Sir or Madam, 

The University of Warsaw is going to organise the University Vaccination Point in the University of Warsaw Library building (sports area at the -1 level), following the government’s guidelines for the programme to set up vaccination centres at workplaces, that will begin at the turn of May and June 2021.

The programme is dedicated to those who have not been vaccinated yet. It aims to build a safe place for working and studying regardless of age (one general condition needs to be fulfilled – people aged 18 and over).

UW is planning to run the University Vaccination Point in collaboration with CenterMed that offers occupational medicine services.

The overall medical service, including the registration, arranging appointments, informing patients about their vaccination dates, and carrying out vaccinations, will be provided by CenterMed. In the programme, there is no possibility to choose a type of vaccine that will be provided by the Government Agency for Strategic Reserves to CenterMed.

Those, who have registered for vaccinations as part of a country-wide vaccination programme, who have a scheduled date or are awaiting their appointments, will be able to get vaccinated at the University Vaccination Center if their scheduled date of vaccination is later than the one resulting from the schedule at the University Vaccinated Point. 

Registration for vaccination at the University Vaccination Point means to consent to the personal data transfer to CenterMed and is aimed at determining the number of people and then arranging the vaccination date. CenterMed will order the number of vaccines and then register for exact dates, verifying the applicants with the list obtained earlier from the university.

Those, who have booked a vaccination as part of a country-wide vaccination programme, have a scheduled date or await their appointment, will be able to get vaccinated at the University Vaccination Center if their scheduled date of vaccination, is later than the one resulting from the schedule at the University Vaccinated Point.

Acting in line with the government’s guidance, the University of Warsaw joins the action enabling getting vaccinated at workplaces and launches the University Vaccination Point (Uniwersytecki Punkt Szczepień, UPSz).
