Today, three weeks after the Pfizer vaccination began, a second vaccination was given to the first vaccines. The medical staff who received the vaccine today also expressed their anticipation of being able to care for the patient without worrying about the infection. There is a reporter at the site where the second Pfizer vaccination is taking place. Reporter Jung Hyun-woo! A second dose of the Pfizer vaccine is in progress, right? Yes it is. Three weeks ago, the first dose of the Pfizer vaccine in Korea was held at the Central Vaccination Center here. Pfizer ‘number one vaccinators’ who have waited three weeks after the last vaccination are scheduled for a second vaccination at 4pm today. Today, the second vaccination target was about 320 people, including the medical staff and administrative staff of the National Medical Center. Let’s hear the sentiments of a nurse in the Infectious Intensive Care Unit who has completed both vaccinations. Quarantine authorities explain that those who have completed the second dose of Pfizer will have enough COVID-19 antibodies in two weeks. So far, some 56,000 people have received their first injection from Pfizer, including workers at the Corona 19 treatment hospital. It’s about 85% of Pfizer’s 60,000 vaccination targets nationwide. For the 1st inoculation, the National Medical Center provides the 2nd vaccination until the 2nd of the following month. Each regional vaccination center is scheduled to have a second vaccination plan before the 10th of the following month in each corona19 treatment room until the 30th. Since the preventive effect of Pfizer’s vaccine, which has been confirmed in clinical trials, exceeds 95%, there is also an answer that the road to herd immunity is approaching step by step. So when will the second dose of the AstraZeneca vaccine start, which was started before the Pfizer vaccine? Yes, the AstraZeneca vaccine started on the 26th of last month, one day before the Pfizer vaccine. Unlike Pfizer, which takes three weeks apart, the second dose of the AstraZeneca vaccine requires 10 to 12 weeks from the first dose. The second dose of the AstraZeneca vaccine, which has affected 610,000 people, is expected to begin in late April through May. Corona 19 vaccines are on order, and 84% of the 650,000 people who will be vaccinated in the first trimester will receive the first injection and are awaiting the second vaccination. There are also plans for the first vaccination in the second trimester. First of all, people over the age of 65 are also eligible for vaccination. Starting on the 23rd, the vaccination of residents and workers in nursing hospitals and nursing centers will begin on the 30th. In the first week of April, seniors living in senior facilities, except nursing homes, receive the AstraZeneca vaccine, and seniors 75 and older outside the facility receive the Pfizer vaccine. Immunizations for special education workers and health teachers in elementary and middle schools are also scheduled for the first week of April. Furthermore, quarantine authorities have also devised a plan to receive a request for vaccination when traveling abroad for important public affairs and economic activities, even if they are not subject to vaccination.
