It is the first case in the world to be approved for emergency use of a modder or vaccine.

First of all, the amount that can fit nearly 3 million people will be released from the beginning of next week.
In addition to the Pfizer vaccine, 20 million vaccines within the year are the US primary target.
The plan is that 100 million people will be vaccinated within 100 days of Biden-elect.
The key is resolving mistrust about vaccines.

Vice President Pence was vaccinated while being broadcast live on TV.
House Speaker Pelosi and Republican Senate Representative McConnell also disclosed the vaccinations.
Biden-elect announced that he would be right next Monday.
President Trump has no plans yet.
Local media reported that in California, where the corona spread is severe, there are also attempts to cut through, such as asking if we can get the vaccine if we pay close to $25,000 and our money of 30 million won.
