The Seoul City Council is currently holding a meeting of the Corona 19 Security and Disaster Countermeasures Headquarters, chaired by Prime Minister Jeong Sye-gyun.

Let’s hear all the comments from Prime Minister Chung’s meeting a while ago.

[정세균 / 국무총리]

Today is the first day of the new year. This year, we must reclaim the daily lives of our people lost due to Corona 19 as soon as possible.

We urge all public officials across the country to be true to their responsibilities before planting.

At the end of last year, the government completed a total of 56 million COVID-19 vaccine contracts.

This is enough for all citizens to receive the vaccine.

The timing of introduction of the contracted vaccine is also gradually being confirmed, making it a critical time to prepare detailed vaccination plans in advance.

The major countries of the United States and Europe already started vaccination three weeks ago, but there are reports that vaccination is not adequately accelerated due to insufficient preparation.

There is even concern that large quantities of vaccines have expired and need to be discarded.

This should never happen with our vaccines, which will start next month.

From the moment the vaccine arrives, the Korean Centers for Disease Control and Prevention must prepare the entire process, such as delivery, storage, vaccination, and follow-up management.

We urge you to actively cooperate with the Ministry of Welfare, the Ministry of Public Administration and Security, the National Assistance Office and the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transportation, which are related departments of the government, so that there are no interruptions in preparation.

Until the end of this month, that is, until January 31, please carefully prepare and complete the vaccination plan and inform the public about the progress from time to time.

It is said that tomorrow will be the coldest of the year.

In particular, the use of heaters is expected to increase as freezing cold is forecast for this week.

When observing the results of epidemiological investigations on prisons or nursing homes, where a large-scale group infection has recently occurred, the so-called dense environment, which is dense, sealed and closed, is noted as an important factor.

In particular, it is unavoidable to use a heater in winter, and ventilation is often not possible due to cold weather.

Since Bangdaebon prepared the winter ventilation guidelines at the end of last November, it is impossible to confirm that they are being properly observed at the site.

Quickly supplement ventilation guidelines by carefully considering the characteristics of each facility and situation, and further strengthen advertising, guidance and inspection activities so that they can be properly practiced in the field of life.

Thank you.
