Increase in pneumococcal vaccine coverage in 2021
During the second campaign of the pneumococcal vaccination program for adults (NPPV) in 2021, people born in 1948 to 1952 were invited for vaccination. Of these, 74.1% were vaccinated. This is higher than in 2020, when people born in 1941 to 1947 were invited and 73.0% were vaccinated.

Vaccine coverage did not differ much between the years of birth and was between 72% and 74% in all birth years. The vaccine coverage was slightly higher in women (74.4%) than in men (73.8%).
