When and where will I get the COVID-19 vaccine? And since individuals don’t have a choice of vaccines, what is the most likely vaccine for me? On the 28th, the government announced a detailed plan for the COVID-19 vaccination, but there are still many things that are unclear. From the perspective of the citizens who will be vaccinated, I have pointed out some questions.
◆In the first quarter, Pfizer medical staff and nursing hospital patients may be vaccinated with AstraZeneca
First of all, from February, starting with the medical staff who treat patients with Corona 19, the elderly and workers in nursing hospitals and facilities will receive the Corona 19 vaccine first. The subject is about 1.3 million. Currently, the vaccine that is confirmed to be imported in February is 1.5 million doses of AstraZeneca vaccine (750,000 people). AstraZeneca and Pfizer vaccines will also be available in February in the multinational vaccine association’CoVax Facility’, and the supply will be confirmed at the end of January. Then, the first vaccination targets, medical staff and elderly people in nursing hospitals and facilities will be given AstraZeneca vaccine or Pfizer’s vaccine.
The distribution of Pfizer vaccine is very difficult. It is difficult to get the Pfizer vaccine in medical institutions without cryogenic freezers because it must be stored and distributed at a cryogenic temperature of -70 degrees Celsius. There is another vaccine like this, it is a modder vaccine. Pfizer and Moderna vaccines are’mRNA’ vaccines, also called nucleic acid vaccines. It is a new technology vaccine that is given to humans for the first time. The government plans to set up 250 vaccination centers nationwide equipped with cryogenic freezers, and inoculate Pfizer Modena vaccines there. The AstraZeneca Janssen vaccine, which can be distributed at room temperature, is vaccinated at 10,000 designated medical institutions nationwide.
The Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention decided to decide who would get what vaccine after consulting the Immunization Review Committee. However, it is likely that medical staff who can go to the vaccination center will receive the Pfizer vaccine, and the elderly in nursing hospitals and facilities with difficult mobility will receive the AstraZeneca vaccine. Nursing hospitals and facilities For seniors, medical staff will directly visit the facility to inoculate the vaccine.

◆In 2Q, it is likely to be included in the Janssen vaccination targetsIn the second quarter (April-June), users and workers of elderly home welfare facilities, and elderly people 65 years of age or older will be vaccinated. Elderly people receive vaccinations in order of age. Vaccinations are also provided for those who urgently need to leave the country for essential public affairs or important economic activities.
There are only AstraZeneca and Pfizer vaccines in the first quarter, but the types of vaccines will be diversified from the second quarter. AstraZeneca, Janssen, Modena and Vaccines come in one after the other. In a briefing on the 28th, Chung Eun-kyung said at a briefing on the 28th that “the government plans to select and inoculate targets for each type of vaccine introduced by the Vaccination Review Committee and experts.”
First of all, the Janssen vaccine is more likely to be selected for those who are difficult to get twice. The AstraZeneca, Modena, and Pfizer vaccines require primary and secondary vaccinations, because the Janssen vaccine only requires one vaccination. Emergency departures may be eligible for Janssen vaccination. Seniors who are unwell and are unable to go to the’Vaccination Center’ where Pfizer/Modena vaccines are given are expected to receive the AstraZenecan or Janssen vaccine at a medical institution.
◆ In the third quarter of the general national vaccination, the vaccine to be vaccinated is’Bokbulbok’
In the third quarter (July-September), vaccinations are given in the order of adults with chronic diseases, 50-64 years old, and 19-49 years old. This is the time when vaccination is in full swing. There are many different types of chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease. How do you determine the range? I haven’t decided yet. First of all, only the degree to which chronically ill patients receive vaccinations in order of age is being discussed.
The third quarter is the time when the Pfizer vaccine will be fully introduced. The government has signed a contract with Pfizer to import the vaccine in the third quarter. Pfizer vaccines coming in Q1~2 will be supplied by Cobax Facility, and it is unlikely that there will be a lot of stock. At this time of vaccination for different age groups, it is expected that the vaccine supply schedule will determine what type of vaccine will be given. Even if we signed a contract with Pfizer to bring in 10 million people and Modena and 20 million people, it is difficult to receive this quantity at once. The government has made a plan to form collective immunity by November, with 70% of the population vaccinated against Corona 19 by September.

◆The 4th quarter of the 2nd vaccination, non-vaccinated and re-vaccinated
In the fourth quarter (October-December), the second vaccination, vaccination for the unvaccinated, and re-vaccination are performed. What’s the difference? AstraZeneca, Pfizer, and Modena vaccines excluding Janssen need to be vaccinated once and then twice every three weeks to form antibodies and activate the immune function. Those who received the vaccination in August can finish the second vaccination in September. However, those who receive the vaccination in September can only receive the second vaccination in the fourth quarter.
Those who have not been vaccinated are those who refused to receive the vaccination when their order came, or were pushed down the ranks because they could not be met. Vaccinations for these people are given in the fourth quarter. Revaccinates are more likely to be those who received the vaccine in the first quarter. The duration of antibodies after vaccination is known to be 6 months. If you were vaccinated in February, the antibody could be effective in September. In this case, the government is preparing for revaccination. However, how long the antibody will last should be further confirmed through future studies.
The website (http://ncv.kdca.go.kr) that provides information on the COVID-19 vaccination will be available from February 1. Advance reservations for vaccination can be made through the vaccination information provision website or the call center (1339). Priority vaccination candidates who start vaccination from February will be determined collectively by individual vaccination institutions and timing, and general candidates who receive vaccination in the 3rd and 4th quarters will be informed of when vaccination is available for each vaccination target through a text message or’National Secretarial Service’. The expected.
