Public health authorities said that 15,769 adverse reactions had been reported among those who received the vaccines by Monday morning.
Meanwhile, a total of 503,673 doses have been wasted in the rollout, according to the Polish health ministry.
As of Monday, Poland had injected over 20.1 million first doses of COVID-19 vaccines, while more than 19.8 million people had been fully inoculated, health ministry data showed.
The tally includes two-dose vaccines from Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna and AstraZeneca as well as Johnson & Johnson's one-shot vaccine.
Poland on Monday reported 2,950 new coronavirus infections and no new deaths related to COVID-19. The latest cases bring the country’s total number of infections during the pandemic to 2,975,880, while the death toll stands at 76,447.
Deputy Health Minister Waldemar Kraska told public broadcaster Polish Radio on Monday that third doses of the COVID-19 vaccine would be made available to all adults beginning November 2.
Poland's government last month recommended a booster dose of the COVID-19 vaccine for healthcare workers and people over 50.
Kraska told reporters at the time that the booster shot would be administered at least six months after the second shot.
In late August, people with compromised immune systems were advised to receive a third dose of the vaccine.
By Monday, a total of 618,993 booster shots had been administered, while 195,467 people with immunity problems had received a third vaccine dose, government data showed.
