The announcement of the Ministry of Research, Innovation and Digital Policy

emvolio 1 VACCINATION GATE

The Ministry of Research, Innovation and Digital Policy wishes to inform the public that the Covid19 Vaccination Portal has been temporarily shut down due to system overload resulting when multiple users simultaneously select the same appointment at the same vaccination center for the same beneficiary.

The gate will be reopened today, April 15, at 14:30 until 20:00, for people aged 61-63.

It is reminded that the Vaccination Portal can accommodate up to 35.000 users simultaneously.

Today, April 15, and while the number of potential beneficiaries is around 26.000, a multiple number of connected users was recorded at 07:30 am, resulting in the system being overloaded and not responding.

A warm appeal to the citizens, as for every beneficiary, an effort is made by only one person to arrange an appointment, in order to avoid the constant overload of the system and the consequent suffering of the citizens.
