Seungmin Yoo is giving a lecture. [사진 출처 = 연합뉴스]Former Future Integration Party (People’s Power) member Yoo Seung-min criticized President Moon Jae-in and the current government’s uncomfortable attitude towards obtaining vaccines, fearing the future of the ‘Vaccine Division’ .
The vaccine gap is a term that explains that in the era of Corona 19, the economic gap between countries that have secured enough vaccines and supplied them quickly and those that have not, will be severe.
Representative Yoo, who is called “economic pain”, apparently criticized President Moon Jae-in and the current government’s attitude towards vaccines. From 9-11, he posted on his Facebook page for 3 consecutive days only on the subject of ‘vaccines’, which is unusual.
The problem of obtaining vaccines between President Moon Jae-in and the current government, pointed out by former legislator Yoo, can be divided into three main categories. The biggest problem is the vaccine itself and the timing of vaccination, which the government said it had ensured. Currently, the government said it has secured a vaccine for 44 million people, of whom a contract was officially signed, and it is known that about 10 million AstraZeneca vaccines are known, which have not yet been approved by the Administration of US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Vaccines like mine are backed by contracts with the concept of ‘safe’. Also, in terms of prevention rate, AstraZeneca 70% or more, Pfizer or Modena 90-95%, and AstraZeneca vaccines are widely evaluated.
For this reason, Representative Yoo said that “the freedom to choose whether the public will be vaccinated or which pharmaceutical company will be vaccinated must be clearly guaranteed.” “The government does not have the authority to force you to have an injection. Will the US FDA approve a vaccine that is unstable and is not approved by the Korean Food and Drug Administration?” He asked.
Time is also an issue. Representative Yoo said: “The UK has already started vaccination, and governments in other countries will get the vaccine early and start vaccination soon. We are not even sure when we will start vaccination.” Ten million people at AstraZeneca concluded that they are “planned to be introduced in phases from February to March”, but it is very likely that they will not be approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) within this year, as that phase 3 clinical trials are not finished. “At the same time,” Pfizer, modder and vaccines, which have been “hype” as “acquisition” on which the government has signed a pre-purchase agreement, have to be supplied from the huge amount of ‘contracts’ from other countries, so when we signed a contract belatedly I was in a dark state if it could be assured. ”
Another problem for Representative Yoo is the ‘wrong words’ from the government and President Moon. Representative Yoo said: “The government has announced that it should ensure a corona vaccine for 44 million people.” This amount is enough, and vaccination can be done later, more slowly and slowly than in other countries, “he said. After the premise,” By the way, President Moon Jae-in said: “Secure more vaccines, advance the vaccination plan “. The president gave the Minister of Health and Welfare a U-turn in one day.
He said: “The Blue House said that only the 8.15 mid-day recovery reduced its GDP by 0.5% Q. If so, if the vaccination is delayed for at least 3 months, or in the worst case, one year, what? how many percentage points will GDP decrease? ” He criticized that the enormous opportunity cost that is paid for fighting with political struggles such as the pride of the quarantine K or the airlift is part of the people. Noting that current small business owners have gone bankrupt due to Corona 19’s social distancing measures, “economic growth is also a problem, but what’s more serious is ‘corona polarization,'” he said. “In 2021, the economy will depend on the ‘vaccine division’. A country that has sufficient security will take the train of economic recovery, and we, who have not managed to secure an early vaccine, must remain at Corona Station,” he warned .
