There were 224 people who received the government flu vaccine suspected of being exposed to room temperature.

In particular, it turned out that some hospitals received free government-backed vaccines and received adult money, but there were no penalties other than simple termination of the contract.

It is a great hospital in Jeonju, Jeonbuk.

In this hospital alone, 60 people have received a flu shot that is suspected of being exposed to room temperature.

The government banned vaccines from the night of the 21st, but this hospital received money from adults with free vaccines that were forbidden.

Initially, the government provided the vaccine to adolescents 13 to 18 years old and people 62 years of age and older.

There are 13 hospitals in Jeonju that used vaccines whose vaccination is prohibited.

179 people have been vaccinated.

Jeonju canceled the contracts of five hospitals that used the government vaccine in advance, and took precautions in the eight places that received the vaccine even on the 22nd without knowing the ban on vaccination.

However, no further legal action has been taken and routine vaccination is still continuing.

The Agency for Disease Control and Prevention said 224 people were vaccinated in four regions, including Seoul, Busan, Jeonbuk and Jeollanam-do, but the possibility of a further increase remains.
