Prime Minister Jeong Sye-gyun said on the 29th that the government’s new vaccine against coronavirus infection (Corona 19) is assured: “I will try to make sure that more than 60% of people can get vaccinated without problems.” This afternoon at the ‘Press Conference on Overcoming the Crown Emergency 19’ held at the government office in Jeokseon-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul.

In addition, Prime Minister Chung explained that the fact that the second step of social distancing in the Seoul metropolitan area did not rise to 2.5 as a result of an accurate quarantine when finding the one with the highest risk of transmission.
“There is no contract to supply 100% vaccine”
First, Prime Minister Chung said, “The government’s target (to secure vaccines) is 30 million people.” However, he said, “there is no certain guarantee that the vaccine will be ‘100% supplied’ when a given contract is made.” In that case, in fact, there may be cases where only advances are paid and no vaccines are provided. ”
Currently, the government plans to first insure 10 million people through the ‘COVAX Facility’, an international organization for the joint purchase of vaccines. The strategy is to negotiate individual negotiations with global pharmaceutical companies to obtain the remaining 20 million people.
Secure additional quantities in consideration of failed supply lines
Prime Minister Chung said: “Even if we receive the promise to supply vaccines for 30 million people (from various pharmaceutical companies), if there is a faulty supply line, the (quantity) will fall.” “In consideration of that, we will secure a little more quantity.” said.
Currently, there is public opinion that it is necessary to ensure a volume of vaccines equivalent to 44 million people (85% of the population), led by the Democratic Party. In this regard, Prime Minister Chung said: “It is not a story at all, but it is not the final draft of the government.
Third Disaster Grant “The government also deems it necessary
Also, regarding the third 4 trillion won disaster grant, which is being promoted by politics, he said, “the government is also considering it necessary.” Prime Minister Chung added: “However, since women and nights are expressing their opinions, we will discuss with the Preliminary Committee of the National Assembly so that good results can be achieved.”
The Central Headquarters for Security and Disaster Countermeasures (Company) discussed ways to strengthen social distancing in a meeting on the 29th. In the metropolitan area, opinions were collected to reinforce some quarantine rules while maintaining the 2nd stage of distancing as before. It was decided to raise the non-metropolitan area to step 1.5.
Prime Minister Chung “goes back to the people who regulate excessive distances”
The daily average of confirmed cases during the last week (23-29) was counted as 416 (excluding overseas entries). By looking only at the daily average of confirmed patients, you meet the 2.5-step standard for increasing distance. Therefore, it is noted that “it was practical.”
Prime Minister Chung said: “It is normal to do whatever it takes to regulate” and “if too much regulation is done, the damage will remain intact for the people.” He added: “It is a precision quarantine to find places with high risk of transmission and to strengthen quarantine measures,” he said. “By doing an accurate quarantine, you can minimize the spread of Corona 19 and mitigate harm to the public due to regulations.” Prime Minister Chung explained that it was the result of sufficient discussions and consultations with various experts.
