[사설] It was because the government took responsibility for doctors and increased distrust of vaccines.

Lebanese medical staff are holding a Pfizer vaccine on the 14th. Countries around the world, including the United States and European advanced countries, as well as Lebanon, have already secured the Corona 19 vaccine and entered the vaccination, but only on the 24th, Korea will receive the first AstraZeneca vaccine, which is highly controversial for efficacy.

– The government’s COVID-19 vaccine policy is not consistent from the start. It is not enough to start vaccination until the end of this month (26th), which is much later than other countries before securing the vaccine, and it is raising distrust about the vaccine by dismissing unclear information and taking responsibility for the medical staff. There is even concern that the vaccination rate will drop due to the rejection of the vaccine.

Corona vaccination detailed plan announced today
Set clear guidelines to increase the inoculation rate

– The central quarantine countermeasures headquarters today announces detailed implementation plans related to the corona 19 vaccination. The biggest concern is whether the controversial AstraZeneca vaccine can be vaccinated over the age of 65. Although 60,000 Pfizer vaccines will be coming soon through Cobax Facility, an international vaccine program for developing countries, the vaccine for which the time of introduction has been confirmed will be delivered from the 24th to 750,000 AstraZeneca sequentially for five days. Unique. The quarantine authorities initially had a policy to apply this vaccine to the elderly and workers staying in nursing homes. However, due to the lack of clinical trials, many European countries including France banned vaccination for the elderly.

Ahead of the introduction of a new vaccine, safety verification is an essential procedure. However, when the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety approved AstraZeneca’s domestic use on the 10th, it created unnecessary controversy with a clue that’the use for the elderly over 65 should be carefully decided.’ Kang-rip Kim, head of the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, said, “The doctor who is vaccinated should consider the benefits of vaccination according to the condition of the person to be vaccinated.” Passed over. Even at several meetings of government experts, opinions differ, and even the quarantine authorities fail to come up with clear guidelines, and it is a behavior that goes beyond incompetence to let the individual doctors in charge of inoculation decide on their own. It is common sense for any government to take responsibility for all side effects of vaccines and start speeding up because vaccines must reach a certain level of inoculation rate to achieve the purpose of collective immunity. The government should be responsible and provide clear guidelines.

Regardless of what conclusions are drawn, disbelief is the urgent priority. If you allow vaccinations over the age of 65, you should honestly explain to the public about your decision and seek understanding. It is also a way to relieve anxiety by inoculating key members of the party, government, and government first. If the previously announced vaccination ranking is changed and the vaccination is postponed after 65 years of age or older, it is necessary to persuade the public and a careful vaccination plan to prevent vaccination rejection or vaccination turmoil. If government officials first devise to avoid being responsible, vaccination will inevitably fail. Keep in mind that the key to securing the quantity of vaccines and whether or not the public trust in the quarantine authorities is as important as the speed of vaccination.
