Dr. Yong answered why the elderly and at risk groups Therefore received the COVID vaccine first | Siam Rath

Because the results of all studies have only reduced symptoms of disease and mortality, recent studies have not said that it reduces infectious disease, reduces disease transmission. No studies have shown that vaccination can prevent infection. Therefore, the elderly or people with congenital disease need to get vaccinated first to reduce morbidity and severity of the disease. Reduce sleep in the hospital of the patient. And reduce deaths

20 Jan 2021 at the Ministry of Public Health Prof. Yongphu Worawan, head of the Center of Specialization in Clinical Virology Faculty of Medicine Chulalongkorn University said that vaccines are now a topic of interest to people all over the world. Even with the money, it cannot be bought at this time. Because in the beginning there was a lot of demand. It is impossible that this year Will allocate adequate vaccines to the country After having been vaccinated A minimum of 2 years of follow-up is required; emergency vaccines are permitted. Due to the short development of a vaccine that is completed within one year, the vaccine is a booster to prevent disease. Until there is clear information about the vaccine Which vaccination To reduce the severity of the disease Reduce sleep in the hospital of the patient. And reduce deaths With no reports Clear research that vaccines can prevent infection. Causing it to be injected in the risk group first To reduce illness Death in the hospital

For the vaccination guidelines, the current results of all brands of studies are effective. Reduce symptoms of disease, reduce mortality, recent studies have not suggested a reduction in infection, reducing disease transmission. No studies have shown that vaccination can prevent infection. Please give an example of the diphtheria vaccine. Injected, did not suffer from diphtheria, but the infection was similarly transmitted. So is the COVID vaccine. The current information is Reduce the severity of the disease No need to go to hospital, reduce mortality, but not disease. The vaccination group had only a few illnesses. When the aim is like this Therefore, vaccination has to be given to the living group, the chance of being in hospital is high, the chance of death is high It is the reason that must be given in the risk group, the elderly, the living and then die. Including personnel at the outposts That if one person is attached, all working persons must be detained

As for the question, why is COVID vaccination not being vaccinated in labor or adolescence? In order to not bring the disease to the elderly at home. Prof. Yong said that because the vaccine has no conclusions that prevent infection. Which even a little sick can still spread the disease But if there is a study or proof that it can be prevented, it will be said again. But at this time, no research has been done to determine whether it can be prevented from contracting the disease or even if the infection can infect others, so we have chosen the risk group first to get vaccinated before the working age group.
