It was counted that 1,217 people were vaccinated nationwide on the 27th, the second day of the new coronavirus infection (Corona 19) vaccination.

Accordingly, the cumulative vaccination of the vaccine is 2,322, adding 19,105 vaccinations on the first day (26 days). The inoculation rate compared to the domestic population (based on 52 million people) is 0.039%.

According to the vaccination status released by the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on the 28th, 917 people were vaccinated against AstraZeneca the day before and 300 people were vaccinated against Pfizer.

AstraZeneca vaccination targets 31,130 hospitals, residents and workers under the age of 65 in a total of 5,813 nursing hospitals, nursing facilities, mental care and rehabilitation facilities nationwide. The cumulative number of inoculations until the previous day was 22,200, and the inoculation rate was 6.5%.

The Agency for Disease Control and Prevention announced that the number of vaccinations on the 26th, the first day of vaccination with AstraZeneca, was 18,489, but revised the number to 19,000. This is because 616 people were entered into the computer late.

Pfizer vaccine targets 55,000 medical staff and workers at Corona 19 patient treatment hospitals and life treatment centers, with a cumulative inoculation of 300 and an inoculation rate of 0.5%. The Pfizer vaccination started the day before.

If the number of inoculations on the previous day was classified by 17 provinces, Seoul was the largest with 351, followed by Gyeonggi 303, Busan 146, Gwangju 141, Jeonnam 109, Gyeongnam 44, Ulsan 30, Incheon 22, and Daejeon and Chungbuk 20 each. There were 11 people, Chungnam 11, and 10 each in Daegu and Jeonbuk. There was no inoculation in Sejong, Gangwon, Gyeongbuk, and Jeju.

The significant decrease in the number of vaccinations on the second day compared to the first day of vaccination seems to be due to the effect of the weekend. On Saturdays, the number of workers in nursing hospitals and nursing facilities decreases somewhat, and in the case of nursing facilities, it is known that many places have set the vaccination date as a weekday where medical treatment is smooth in case of an adverse reaction.

Currently, the corona 19 vaccination is in progress as the first dose of AstraZeneca and Pfizer vaccines. Both vaccines require two doses to form immunity.

The adverse reaction statistics reported the day before will be released on the afternoon of the day. There were 15 adverse reactions reported on the first day of AstraZeneca vaccination, all of which were mild, such as headache, fever, nausea (nausea), and vomiting, and’anaphylaxis’ (severe whole body allergic reaction), which is the most worrying about vaccination, did not appear.
