Although vaccination for the novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19) began on the 26th of last month, it was pointed out on the 4th that the Agency for Disease Control and Prevention has not yet established a system to report the occurrence of adverse vaccine reactions.
According to the National Assembly’s Office of the People’s Strength Kim Mi-ae, a member of the National Assembly Health and Welfare Committee, the Agency for Disease Control and Prevention informed them to report an adverse vaccine reaction through the explanatory data released in January and February through the’Vaccination Assistant’. However, it has been confirmed that the related system has not been established yet.
According to the data on the’Corona 19 Vaccination Question and Answer’ released on January 28, the Agency for Disease Control and Prevention said, “After vaccination, we intend to operate a general reporting system by reinforcing the adverse reaction monitoring system.” Through the vaccination helper website, the recipient or guardian can check for adverse reactions and receive guidance on how to respond.”
In the vaccination plan that came out on the same day, he explained, “We will provide a mobile-based reporting service so that you can always report and monitor adverse reactions,” and “We will disclose the cumulative and daily reports of adverse reactions in real time after the initial vaccination started.”
On the’Vaccination Helper’, a vaccination information search site operated by the Korean Disease Administration, you can report the occurrence of adverse reactions by entering personal information through’Report Adverse Reactions’ and then selecting vaccination details. However, the vaccinations listed in the options include tuberculosis, chickenpox, hepatitis B, and pneumococcal, but there is no COVID-19 vaccine.
In response, the Agency for Disease Control explained that “the current target of vaccination is a nursing home or a high-risk medical institution, so if an adverse reaction occurs, it is possible to identify itself.” .
Rep. Kim pointed out that “establishment of a system for reporting adverse reactions is fundamental to improve the vaccination rate,” he said. “As the vaccination is delayed, it is necessary to thoroughly prepare and prepare, but the situation is not doing so.”
