During the last two weekends of October, residents of Tallinn can once again give away hazardous waste free of charge. On October 23, hazardous waste are collected in Kesklinn and Lasnamäe, on October 24 in Kristiine and Põhja-Tallin, on October 30 in Pirita and Mustamäe, and on October 31 in Haabersti and Nõmme.
From October 20 to October 26, COVID-19 counselling and vaccination points will be open in Haabersti, Põhja-Tallinn, Kesklinn and Nõmme, where everyone can ask for advice on vaccination and at the same time get vaccinated. Two-dose Pfizer / BioNTech and Moderna vaccines and a single-dose Janssen vaccine are administered. The counselling and vaccination points will be located in the local election polling tents that were set up last week.
Tallinn voters who cannot vote in the local elections at the polling place because of a health condition or other compelling reasons can order a ballot box at home by contacting the city district government.
By Tuesday evening, 15,922 voters had cast their votes in Tallinn polling places, which is a little over half of the people who had voted in polling places all over Estonia.
