The system of the Vaccination Portal did not fall, it is slow due to overload by users, said to KYPE, the Deputy Minister of Research, Innovation and Digital Policy Kyriakos Kokkinos.
Today the Vaccination Gate opened from 7:30 and will remain open until 8 pm, for ages 39 and 40.
"The Portal works just fine. It is slow for the first 5-10 minutes. "Citizens are complaining that they can not be served," said Mr. Kokkinos.
He added that the Portal worked normally during its first minutes of operation.
"Due to overload, some citizens may have experienced that the system was slow and could not be serviced immediately, but it was a matter of half or a minute for the system to serve them," he added.
Mr. Kokkinos stated that according to the information he had, 80% of the available appointments have been closed so far.
