Yaita City, Tochigi Prefecture has decided to subsidize vaccination costs for all citizens, and in order to encourage vaccination, households with children who have been vaccinated early and elderly people aged 65 and over will receive 2000 yen. I will mail the gift certificate of.



There is also a movement to subsidize the full amount of vaccination costs, such as children up to 6th grade in Okayama prefecture, elderly people aged 65 and over who are at high risk of becoming severe in Osaka prefecture, and people aged 60 and over who have heart and respiratory disorders. I decided to subsidize all the vaccination costs for the people.



In addition, the influenza vaccine is expected to secure about 63 million people in terms of adult capacity, but it is expected that the number of people who want to be vaccinated will increase rapidly, and the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare said that it is 65 years old or older. For those who are eligible for regular vaccination, such as the elderly, we have decided to give priority to vaccination from the 1st of next month, and we want other people to wait until the 26th of next month.
