The booster dose against covid can be given at the same time as the flu vaccine (co-vaccination). If you belong to a risk group, you will receive the covid vaccine for free. Bjørnafjorden municipality does not send out invitations for vaccination. You must book an appointment yourself.
How to get the covid vaccine
Order the vaccine at the two municipal medical offices:
Osøyro medical center, phone 56 57 00 20 or Eikelandsosen medical center, phone 56 58 02 90
