Right now, a meeting is underway at the Seoul Government Complex to see how the Corona 19 vaccine and treatment plan is progressing, chaired by Prime Minister Jeong Sye-gyun.

The government plans to check the status of obtaining additional vaccines in addition to the 44 million people previously hired, and to receive reports of the results of clinical trials for national drugs that are about to be launched.

Just now, let’s listen to Prime Minister Chung’s comments.

[정세균 / 국무총리]

Last week, the government informed the public about its pre-purchase plan for 44 million Corona 19 vaccines, which was confirmed through the State Council.

However, as the number of confirmed corona19 patients has increased recently and news that vaccination has started in the UK and US, there are voices calling for speedy vaccination and some people are concerned that our plan introduction of vaccines is interrupted.

As we are well aware of the concerns and concerns of citizens, the government will carefully prepare and prepare plans at the ministry level so that the vaccines purchased in advance are introduced in time from the first quarter of next year and can be vaccinated without problems.

In particular, as Prime Minister of Corona 19 Company Headquarters, we will take care of everything from now on, from now on so that the public does not worry.

Although some countries have started vaccination in a hurry because the corona19 situation is very serious, we will do our best to introduce the insured amount as soon as possible so as not to delay the scheduled vaccination time for Korea.

In addition to the amount already insured, we will actively design additional safety measures that focus on safe and effective vaccines by listening to the opinions of experts.

On the other hand, I would like to say that we are preparing a plan that can be used rapidly for the treatment of confirmed patients while closely monitoring the progress of the development of home treatment, which has reached the final stage of clinical trials.

We will make decisions and support one by one through this meeting until citizens are confidently vaccinated and can be safely treated even if they are infected with Corona 19.

In particular, it can be said that this week will be a milestone week in defense K.

We look forward to the first meeting to verify the status of vaccines and treatment held today as a starting point for the hope of overcoming the current crisis situation.

Thank you.
