This time in Europe, the coronavirus is spreading faster. In Germany, a 101-year-old man was vaccinated for the first time, and 27 member states of the European Union have also started vaccinating against coronavirus. The UK will also approve the use of the corona vaccine developed by AstraZeneca earlier next month, and it is likely to begin mass vaccination.
This is Kim Yong-cheol.
The COVID-19 vaccine, jointly developed by Pfizer and Bio&Tech, began shipping to 27 EU member states starting Saturday.
It was decided to be vaccinated at once from Sunday, but Germany, Hungary and Slovakia started vaccinating as soon as they received the vaccine.

In Germany, where vaccination was started in the elderly, a 101-year-old woman was first vaccinated in a nursing home in Saxony-Anhalt.
In Slovakia, a member of the government’s Corona 19 Countermeasure Committee received the vaccine first to give confidence in the vaccine.

Most of the vaccines delivered first to EU countries are less than 10,000 doses, so full-scale vaccination is expected to be available from next month.
On the 6th of next month, the European Union is planning to review emergency use approval of the Corona 19 vaccine developed by the US pharmaceutical company Modena.
The British daily Telegraph reported that the British government will soon approve the COVID-19 vaccine jointly developed by Oxford University and AstraZeneca and will distribute it from the 4th of next month.
