Preparations for vaccination began when those over 65 were able to receive the AstraZeneca vaccine.

Nursing hospital patients and workers are expected to be vaccinated within this month.

For more details, let’s hear from reporters. Reporter Kim Kyung-soo!

How is the vaccination preparation situation in the nursing hospital?

In the case of this nursing hospital, there are about 200 inpatients aged 65 and over and 8 workers in the hospital.

Work is underway to determine if they are willing to receive the AstraZeneca vaccine.

The vaccine will be administered after the confirmation of the vaccination doctor for the next week, and the vaccine is expected to be available during this month.

Among those 65 and older, residents and workers in hospitals or nursing facilities receive the vaccine first, which covers 370,000 people nationwide.

Previously, the government decided to get the AstraZeneca vaccine even for those over 65, and the speed of vaccination is expected to increase.

Recently, the vaccination committee made up of experts recommended the use of the AstraZeneca vaccine, saying that the effectiveness of the AstraZeneca vaccine is recognized even for the elderly.

In the UK and Scotland, when the vaccine was given to the elderly, it had a preventive effect.

However, since more than a few people over 65 have underlying illnesses in their old age, it seems necessary to especially prepare for any adverse reactions that you may not be aware of.

The government plans to operate an emergency emergency system to guide careful precautions to avoid receiving the vaccine if the person is in poor health and to prepare for serious adverse events.

So far, I’ve been delivering it to you at a nursing hospital in Bucheon.
