From April 5, Hecht GGD Hollands Midden will open combined injection locations in nine locations across the region where visitors can receive both HPV and corona vaccinations. This can be done with or without an appointment. This is also the case in Alphen aan den Rijn.
This way anyone who wants and qualifies for it can get these vaccinations easily and nearby. The combined injection locations are open until June 2023.
HPV and corona vaccinations
From 5 April, the following vaccinations will be available free of charge at the injection locations of Hecht GGD Hollands Midden without an appointment:
- HPV vaccination: This vaccination is only available for young adults born between January 1, 1996 and December 31, 2003 who have not yet been (fully) vaccinated against human papillomavirus.
