The Central Vaccination Center of the National Medical Center in Jung-gu, Seoul, where the second dose of Corona 19 Pfizer vaccine was started for medical personnel on the 20th. Jeong Mi-kyung, who finished the vaccination around 9: 23 am, it looked brighter than the first shot. He said, “Even though there are 400 confirmed cases, I want everyone to get vaccinated quickly until they get to 100 or less, or 0,” he said. “If everyone is vaccinated, we can defeat the mutant virus.”

The second dose of Pfizer vaccine for Corona 19 patient treatment hospital workers went off without a hitch. From the beginning of next month, the antibody holders will be released in earnest, so they will take another step towards herd immunity.

The second vaccination on this day was scheduled for 320 hospital workers who received the first vaccination on the 27th of last month. Unlike the first vaccination, when expectations and concerns crossed, medical staff and vaccinators seemed lighter.

After the second vaccination, 15% had a fever of 38 degrees or higher and 40% had systemic abnormalities. He said: “There will be more complications after the second vaccination, so we are preparing by folding the bed in the observation room.”

Deputy Director Ko said: “(Of the vaccination amount) about 99%, 7 doses (7 doses) came out without any problem,” he said. “There is a good possibility (to increase the amount).”

He explained: “I had no problem getting one more dose even though I changed the type of syringe and hand,” he explained.

When using a special ‘low dead space’, developed by national companies, also known as a ‘squeeze syringe’, the Pfizer vaccine can be administered from 6 to 7 people per bottle, and the AstraZeneca vaccine is per bottle. It is known that it can increase from 10 to 11 to 12 people.
