On the 7th, the Director of the Disease Administration said, "The best gift of filial piety is vaccination. Be aware that your parents' vaccination advance reservations begin, so take a look at them so that you can pre-book vaccinations through mobile, online, and phone lines. I hope to give it to you."
A briefing on the 7th of the critical script said, “Of the deaths who reported adverse reactions to the Corona 19 vaccination, the causal relationship between vaccination and adverse reactions has not yet been recognized.” “After vaccination, the number of cases of adverse reactions reported is the lowest among those over 65 years of age. Appeared,” he said, “no side effects death and safety over 65 years of age.”
"There is no scientific reason that only Korea has severe side effects," said Yoon Tae-ho, head of the quarantine team. "The 8th is Mother's Day. He said, "Please help me to schedule the vaccination with the phone call for the elderly so that the elderly can receive the vaccination with confidence."

The government will also make more efforts to become a government that works well for all the elderly," he said, sharing the role of vaccination implementation through SNS.
In a briefing on the 6th, Yun Tae-ho said, "Even if 70% of the population completes vaccination and forms collective immunity, the virus will not completely disappear." The government's goal is to minimize damage while vaccinating as if responding to seasonal flu.
In a briefing on the 7th, Yoon said, "The rare thrombosis side effects caused by vaccination occur in about 0.001 per 100 people and 1 per 100,000 people according to overseas survey results. There are no cases in Korea yet, and treatment is possible even if most of them do occur," he said. "He said'vaccine advantage'.

The Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (KCDC) revised the work report in January, “The total mobilization of all government resources for vaccinating 70% of the population in November.”
“Collective immunity will be difficult to achieve,” said Oh Myung-don, chairman of the Central Clinical Committee of New Infectious Diseases (Seoul National University's Infectious Medicine Professor) on the 3rd.

On the 7th, Kwon Joon-wook, head of the National Institute of Health (deputy head of the company headquarters), said, “Before November, 70% of the population can have a collective immunity effect before vaccination.” “The basics of distancing and quarantine in the'Basic Reproduction Index' are solid. "The effectiveness of vaccination can appear faster and more effectively."

We plan to provide customized support by preparing guidelines by June. “Achievement of collective immunity is a very important goal and task,” he said. “The government will make every effort to introduce vaccines ahead of time in order to achieve collective immunity in November.
