At the time of influenza vaccination, the media reportedly indiscriminately reporting’dead after vaccination’, whose causal relationship with the vaccine was not proven, and an analysis that lowered the credibility of the Corona 19 vaccine.
Newstop CEO Kim Joon-il, who participated in the’Corona 19 Vaccine Report, What’s the Problem’ seminar held at Lee Young-hee Hall, Newstapa Center in Jung-gu, Seoul on the 4th, refused vaccination in December rather than October 2020. The increase in doctors explained that it was influenced by media reports.
According to data surveyed by 15 countries by the polling agency’Ipsos’, Korea’s’Vaccine Vaccination (consent rate)’ in October last year was 83%, but in December it decreased to 75%. Of course, all other countries have increased their willingness to reject the vaccine, but it is noteworthy that Korea was the fourth largest out of 15 countries. Even when asked,’Is it right now?’, only 12% of the people answered’yes’, so distrust about the vaccine was high.
Regarding this, CEO Kim said, “(negative) reports about the influenza vaccine from October to November were poured out, and people’s anxiety increased. In this situation, we infer that the rejection of the vaccine itself has increased.”
At that time, the media has been criticized for raising anxiety by describing all cases of death after influenza vaccination as’death by vaccine’ and by reporting horse racing styles in the manner of’an additional number of deaths’. However, as a result of the investigation of 110 cases of deaths reported by the quarantine authorities after vaccination, there was no case of death from the vaccine.

Breaking a line that actually distorts
As such, CEO Kim explained the phenomenon of media reports “interfering with the overcoming of Corona 19,” by categorizing it into ▲the standards of entertainment ▲politicization of quarantine ▲how to report incidents ▲centered on breaking news ▲splitting articles ▲depending on government announcements.
The’entertainment rhythm’ was especially raised during the vaccine introduction process. At the end of last year, when voices criticizing the government for’the vaccine is late’ grew, the media changed the standards as needed and chose the logic.
Regarding this, Kim said, “Sometimes they criticized that they could not introduce a vaccine very urgently, and sometimes they said that stability is important.”
‘Politicization of quarantine’ is also explained by data on the amount of change in news. <뉴스톱> As a result of an analysis of vaccine articles, the presidential name’Moon Jae-in’ and the keyword’vaccine’ move in a similar pattern. In short, when the amount of vaccine coverage increased, so did the amount of coverage of the president.
Looking at the analysis of’Keywort Trend’ of Big Cains by the Korea Press Promotion Foundation,’Moon Jae-in’ and’Vaccine’ have a correlation coefficient of 0.3761. If 0.376 is a clear quantitative linear relationship, the proportional relationship between the two keywords is clear. This is the point that shows that the vaccine is linked to the political sphere, such as criticism or support for the current government.
In addition,’case article’-style reporting according to the six-and-a-half principle was also a problem. CEO Kim said, “I don’t have the ability to analyze, or I don’t have time. A few people died. They continued to die. They said they died,” he explained, explaining that these reports are not suitable for vaccine reports that must be analyzed based on science.
In fact, he pointed out that the problem is a’breaking news’ report that removes the context by exporting only one line title as an article, and’splitting’ that secures the number of clicks by splitting what appears as a single article.
In particular, he cited the briefing of adverse reactions to vaccines by the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on the 3rd. Numerous media outlets reported one line under the title of “the authorities “died after vaccination, 402 people in the UK and 113 people in Germany”. In fact, however, the briefing made it even more important to note that all of them are deaths without a causal relationship to the vaccine.
Regarding this, CEO Kim pointed out, “People who have seen the article for a while have no choice but to raise negative perceptions about the vaccine through this report,” he pointed out, “while competing for breaking news in this way, the vaccine report and the entire Corona 19 quarantine report become a mess.” .
“Is it unintelligible or unintelligible…”

Lee Jae-gap, a professor of infectious medicine at Hallym University Kangnam Sacred Hospital, who participated in the seminar, said, “The tone of disaster reporting and vaccine reporting should be different.”
Professor Lee said, “Because disaster reporting needs to be quick and fast, there is bound to be a competition for breaking news. But vaccines are related to science and affect vaccine psychology,” said Professor Lee. “We need to go out carefully based on scientific facts in the form of planning articles.” Pointed out.
He added, “When politicians mention abuse of vaccines, reporters should check the facts and reveal exactly what is wrong.” did,
Professor Lee said, “According to KDI’s undisclosed data, the acceptability of vaccines differs according to political orientation, and attitudes toward accepting vaccine facts are different. It is a pity to consume different information according to political orientations.” He pointed out that it should be reported with that in mind.
In addition, Professor Lee said, “In foreign countries, all cases of death from’after vaccination’ are not’vaccine side effects’, but only in Korea are reporting as if’dead because of the vaccine’. I don’t know if I’m doing it or I don’t want to understand it,” he criticized.
