(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Chang-Yong Shin = The government announced that AstraZeneca’s vaccine for the prevention of new coronavirus infection (Corona 19) will surely enter Korea from February to March next year.
“AstraZeneca vaccine is sure to come into Korea in February to March next year,” said Son Young-rae, head of the Strategic Planning Division of the Central Accident Recovery Headquarters (heavy water version) at the Corona 19 back briefing on the 21st.
AstraZeneca is the only pharmaceutical company that the Korean government has officially signed a vaccine purchase contract so far.
The government has announced several times that the AstraZeneca vaccine will be introduced in Korea from February to March next year, but the possibility of delay in introduction has been raised.
In particular, it was argued that the specific timing, such as the date of supply or quarter, was not specified in the purchase contract signed by both sides.
Strategic Planning Division Head Son said, “This part will come in several times from February to March of next year. It has been confirmed and guaranteed by several channels.” “Comes in.”
“This is a part that is guaranteed through AstraZeneca and various procedures and channels,” he added.

Although the government has announced a specific plan for introducing the AstraZeneca vaccine several times, it was confused that the reliability was questioned.
“I am embarrassed by repeated questions about whether AstraZeneca vaccine will be supplied,” said Son, head of Strategic Planning.
Earlier, the government announced that it has secured 34 million copies, including 10 million bottles each from AstraZeneca, Pfizer, and Modena, and 4 million from Johnson & Johnson and Janssen.
Among them, AstraZeneca vaccine was signed with the pre-purchase contract, and the contract with Pfizer and Johnson & Johnson-Jansen will be completed within this year, and with Modena in January of next year.
Apart from these overseas pharmaceutical companies, the government also decided to purchase 10 million people through the COVAX facility, an international project for joint purchase and distribution of vaccines.
