The final announcement next week is the plan for the corona19 vaccination that the government has been preparing for.
We are also speeding up the vaccination preparation work, such as providing a government subsidy for the cryogenic freezer business for vaccine storage.

At the end of this month, the government will finalize the corona19 vaccination plan, which has been in consultation with related ministries and local governments, to be announced at the end of this month.
It contains detailed plans and timetables, such as which subjects will be vaccinated first and when to start and end vaccination for each subject.

Priority vaccination recommendations announced by the government are 9 groups in total, including workers in medical institutions, people living in group facilities, and the elderly over 65.
The government’s official position is that it has not yet been determined who will be vaccinated first.
However, the elders and workers of medical staff or nursing hospitals are the most powerful vaccinations.
Several considerations remain.
As the initial volume of vaccines to be introduced next month is small, it is possible that medical staff will be given first instead of elderly patients in group facilities nationwide.
Successive reports of deaths from elderly patients vaccinated abroad may also influence the final decision.

The quarantine authorities decided to provide government subsidies to local governments for the project of installing cryogenic freezers for vaccine storage.
In addition, SK Bioscience was selected as a domestic distributor of vaccines.
In the future, SK Bioscience will be in charge of real-time monitoring with a customized frozen and refrigerated distribution system for each vaccine.
