[정치][현장영상] Prime Minister Jung “I urge you not to use vaccines as a subject of science…

[정세균 / 국무총리]

It is a warm weekend as spring has come.

Although the number of confirmed cases from once more than 600 has decreased to 400, it is still a situation that cannot be relieved.

The war against Corona 19, which has been continuing for more than a year, has caused national fatigue, but various risk factors still lurk everywhere.

The number of mutant viruses introduced from abroad continues to increase.

As the new semester begins with a warm spring, the amount of activity will increase.

Even after vaccination is initiated, there is a significant amount of time left until mass immunity.

The week starting today will be an important milestone in determining the direction of future quarantine strategies.

Hopefully, once again, we hope that it will be a week to bring together our strength to break the momentum of the third fashion and prepare for the spring of hope.

Corona 19 vaccination has entered the countdown

On the 26th, the first vaccination is made in nursing hospitals and nursing facilities with AstraZeneca vaccine produced in Korea.

On the same day, 117,000 doses of Pfizer’s vaccine will arrive in Korea from Cobax Facility.

This amount will be vaccinated to medical professionals treating COVID-19 patients from the 27th.

As a result of confirming the willingness of the first vaccination subjects, it is expected that the participation in the early stage will be high enough that 94% agree to the vaccination.

As the government has been responsible for verifying the safety and effectiveness, I urge the citizens to believe in this and actively participate in vaccination.

When everyone needed to work together for a successful vaccination, a few days ago, the medical association opposed the discussion on amendments to the National Assembly’s medical law, and expressed the possibility of a general strike, causing many people to worry.

Moreover, even if you make a traffic accident, you cannot forbid deplorability because you misrepresent the facts as if your doctor’s license is unconditionally revoked.

The interests of a particular job cannot take precedence over the lives and safety of the people.

If illegal collective action becomes a reality on the basis of this, the government will respond firmly.

Recently, some political circles are creating social anxiety by using stimulating terms that are far from reality, such as refusal of water vaccines or vaccinations.

Vaccines are the realm of science.

It is also a critical affair in the country where the lives and health of the people depend.

Please refrain from using vaccines as the subject of political disputes, and I sincerely ask that everyone from all walks of life contributes to the smooth vaccination.

We are fortunate that the number of highly pathogenic influenza outbreaks is decreasing as of the end of this month.

The Ministry of Agriculture and Food has accepted on-site recommendations and adjusted the killing standards from February 15 to within 1 km of the 3 km radius of the farm.

For these mitigations to be maintained, thorough quarantine must ensure that the spread of the virus between farms is reliably stopped.

The Ministry of Agriculture and Food and the local governments are encouraged to continue to do their best to prevent gaps in quarantine with this measure, and to closely check the supply and demand of eggs.

Thank you.
