“Please come late in the order of inoculation…”

Controversy about remarks by Commissioner Eun-kyung Jeong

– At this meeting, President Moon asked Chung, “when will our chief vaccination?” and then asked, “When is the president right?” At the president’s question, participants burst into laughter. Ministry of Public Administration and Security Minister Jeon Jeon-cheol, who accompanied him, said to Chief Chung, “I think you should answer well.” The remarks in question came after this.
Commissioner Jeong said, “I hope the order will come a little later… “I replied. The answer was short, as it was a distinctive silent style.

Chief Chung’s words sound like’the president should be beaten a little late’. If you get hit late, you can get the vaccine for Pfizer, Modena, NovaVax, and Janssen. At the end of this month, 500,000 Pfizer vaccines are coming in, which may be the case right away, or three other vaccines.

Or, if the results of an AZ vaccine clinical trial in the United States come out at the end of March, and there is a conclusion that it is acceptable for people aged 65 or older, the AZ vaccine may be given.

If President Moon receives four vaccines including Pfizer or the AZ vaccine, which has been validated for the elderly, it is likely to cause another controversy. This is because the distrust of the AZ vaccine, which started on the 26th, is still not small.

President Moon also said to the medical staff who received the first vaccination at the vaccination site on the 26th, as if conscious of the distrust of the AZ vaccine, “It is true that there is some anxiety. Please say something.”

Disbelief emerged at other vaccination sites. At the vaccination site in Dobong-gu, Seoul on the 26th, Kim Mo (59), a nursing care provider, said, “In fact, I wanted to get a Pfizer vaccine, but I didn’t have any other options. It was enough to say “.

Officials of the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention interpreted Chief Chung’s remarks as follows. One official said, “If the anxiety of vaccination spreads more (in the future), the president may take the lead and get it early,” he said. “This should not happen, and that will mean that the president will meet the specified time according to the vaccination sequence.” said.

Another official said, “It seems to contain the meaning of expecting that the vaccination rate will remain high.” .

According to the government’s vaccination plan, senior citizens aged 65 or older will be vaccinated from May. President Moon is 68 years old, so he falls here.
