This infographic presents the findings of the report: "Reducing COVID 19 transmission and strengthening vaccine uptake among migrant populations in the EU/EEA"
This infographic summarises some key messages from ECDC's technical report Interim public health considerations for COVID-19 vaccination of adolescents in the EU/EEA.
