The controversy arose when the quarantine authorities postponed the vaccination of the AstraZeneca vaccine to the elderly over the age of 65. Although there is no abnormality in safety, this was the reason for the lack of clinical trial data to confirm the effect on the elderly. President Moon over 65 is not eligible for AstraZeneca vaccination. Prime Minister Chung said in an interview with Channel A the day before, “It is highly likely that the elderly will be vaccinated with Pfizer vaccine first.” The Pfizer vaccine will be introduced in an amount of 3.5 million people at the end of March.
Prime Minister Jeong said, “The vaccines shipped today will be vaccinated to those who need help first. They also desperately want to receive the vaccine as soon as possible.” “As the KFDA and various experts have completed the verification, I urge the people to believe in the government and actively participate in vaccination without shaking.” “There should not be any dissemination of false or inaccurate facts.” did.

He said, “The government will surely succeed in vaccination so that people who have been lost due to Corona 19 can recover their precious daily life as soon as possible,” he said. “The vaccine loaded on the truck will bring a spring of hope to our people suffering from Corona 19. I look forward to becoming a seed that can be done.”
Prime Minister Jung received a report of the shipment status of AstraZeneca vaccine from SK Bioscience’s Andong plant manager Lee Sang-gyun, and sealed the vaccine transport vehicle.
Earlier, Prime Minister Chung presided over the Corona 19 Central Disaster and Safety Countermeasure Headquarters meeting at the Gyeongbuk Provincial Office in Andong-si, Gyeongbuk this morning.
