Park Neung-hoo “All domestic vaccinations are not overpaid … no disputes required”
People’s Power “You must prepare until spring” … Expected difficulty in handling additional bills
The Health and Welfare Committee of the National Assembly issues ‘free influenza vaccine for all citizens’
Health and Welfare Minister Park Neung-hoo, who attended the National Assembly, said that opposition to the assertion of the people’s strength to inoculate the flu vaccine for free to all the people was not payable.
Korea’s influenza vaccination rate is sufficient and it is difficult to produce additional vaccines, but the force of people has continued to argue that the number of production and vaccination targets should be increased as influenza may continue until next spring.

[기자]In the Health and Welfare Committee of the National Assembly for the review of the fourth supplementary bill, the ‘free influenza vaccine for all citizens’ became a major issue.
Health and Welfare Minister Park Neung-hoo agreed in common sense with the earlier national vaccination claim, but drew a line that there was no need to further debate the issue of the flu vaccine, saying no you pay more.
[박능후 / 보건복지부 장관 : 의료적으로 볼 때는 그것이 과도하면, 과유불급이죠. 너무 과도하면 오히려 비효율을 낳을 수 있고….]In addition, he emphasized that the amount and rate of vaccination were sufficient, noting that 6 out of 10 citizens have already secured a vaccine that can be inoculated.
[서영석 / 더불어민주당 의원 : 충분한 물량을 확보하고 있다고 단정해도 틀림이 없는 거죠?] [박능후 / 보건복지부 장관 : 의료적 관점에서는 지금 저희가 비축하고 있거나 하고자 하는 백신의 접종 비율이 충분하다고 판단하고 있습니다.]As for the possibility of additional production, it took 5 to 6 months to produce the vaccine, and the production facility was also assigned to Corona 19 vaccine, he said negatively.
[박능후 / 보건복지부 장관 : 현실적으로 물량을 수급할 수가 없습니다.]In response, the force of the people continued to argue that as the flu pandemic until spring, vaccine production should be increased and the scope of vaccination should be expanded.
[서정숙 / 국민의힘 의원 : 보통 독감이 3, 4월까지 유행합니다. 코로나19 상황이 아직 종식되지 않은 상황에서 우리가 또 어떤 파도를 겪을지 모릅니다.]Ultimately, the Wellness Committee decided on the budget under its jurisdiction as originally drafted without reducing disagreement over the flu vaccine.
The Democratic Party has been examining whether the popular power can accept part of the free vaccination of the influenza vaccine, which it affirmed as an alternative to supporting the communication costs of the entire public, within the current production volume.
However, even Lee urged the government to come up with other reasonable alternatives, saying it would be really difficult for the state to recover private vaccines and conduct more free vaccine screenings.
The government has repeatedly expressed its position that it is difficult to expand free flu vaccines, and if the same debate is repeated in the Special Budget and Accounts Committee, which will be held next week, the process of the fourth supplementary bill faces difficulties.
