Influenza vaccinations in Southwest Finland

Vaccination is the best protection against seasonal influenza. In the Wellbeing Services County of Southwest Finland (Varha), the influenza vaccine administration for the 2023 season will start in November. The information on this website will be updated as the vaccinations proceed.

The vaccinations will be administered in your municipality of residence. Select your group below for more information on vaccinations as well as their locations and times.

Influenza vaccination and COVID-19 vaccination at the same time?

A booster dose of COVID-19 vaccinations can be administered at the same time if you belong to the target group of COVID-19 booster vaccinations.

Pneumococcal vaccines, included in the national vaccination programme, will not be administered at the same time as the COVID-19 vaccine. A separate appointment will be booked for pneumococcal vaccinations at your own health centre.

Do you have questions?

If you have questions about vaccinations or want to give feedback, please contact the health centre in your municipality of residence. Alternatively, you can also contact us through our feedback form.
