The talks are to take place at Poland’s National Security Bureau (BBN). The meeting is also expected to be attended by Health Minister Adam Niedzielski and the head of the Prime Minister's Office, Michał Dworczyk, who has been tasked with coordinating a national vaccination programme.
Paweł Soloch, the head of the National Security Bureau, said that President Duda wants the vaccination programme to run “as transparently as possible and without raising doubts among citizens.”
“This requires good coordination and that will be the purpose of the meeting on Monday, among other things,” Soloch added.
Over 8,000 facilities across the country have applied to be registered as COVID-19 vaccination sites, the Polish health ministry has said.
Dworczyk told reporters on Saturday that according to initial estimates, some 3.4 million people could be vaccinated each month.
Morawiecki announced last week that Poland had reserved and bought over 60 million doses of coronavirus vaccines from six leading world producers.
At the beginning of this month he said that Poland could start free, voluntary, two-stage vaccinations against the coronavirus in February.
Poland on Sunday reported 8,977 new coronavirus infections and 188 more deaths, bringing its total number of cases to 1,135,676 and fatalities to 22,864.
