[전국]Nursing hospitals are also ready… Medical staff inoculate within 5 days

[앵커]

AstraZeneca vaccine has also arrived at 290 nursing hospitals ahead of the corona 19 vaccination.

The nursing hospital where medical staff reside is self-vaccinating, and aims to complete the first vaccination within 5 days of the arrival of the vaccine.

A vaccine transport truck arrives at the nursing hospital, escorted by military vehicles.

The vaccines that arrived here were transferred directly to a dedicated refrigerator in quantities that could fit 200 people.

Nursing hospitals with medical staff were able to inoculate themselves, so they received the vaccine directly without going through a public health center.

Vaccination targets are workers and residents under the age of 65.

There are 120 people who are eligible for vaccination in this nursing hospital, and the vaccination will be performed after checking their health.

Everything is ready for vaccination.

The vaccination site was prepared in the place where the usual medical examination was performed, and emergency treatment equipment was also prepared in case of any emergency such as an adverse reaction.

Some nursing hospitals with many vaccination targets plan to receive vaccinations by date.

The nursing hospital explained that it had provided preliminary training to ensure that the vaccination subjects were not anxious.

It was also expected that this vaccination would help prevent the spread of infection in hospitals.

[이보인 / 대전 성심요양병원 원장 : 종사자들에 의한 전파 가능성이 더 커서 이번에 직원들이 백신을 잘 맞고 나면 입원해 계신 환자분들의 안전에도 큰 도움이 되지 않을까 생각합니다.]

The first vaccination is given at 290 out of 1,600 nursing hospitals nationwide.

Vaccine delivery to nursing hospitals will continue until the 28th.
