A vaccine that is expected to be the "trump card" for the convergence of new coronavirus infections.
Now, preparations for vaccination are in progress nationwide.
I summarized the movement of 3 days.
1. Temporary inoculation venue Built and provided as a whole <Osaka>
A company in Osaka City started a service to build and provide a temporary inoculation site using a large tent, and a simulation of the inoculation work was carried out.
This service was started by a company in Osaka City that rents equipment for events, and a temporary venue was built on the site of the company in Suminoe Ward, Osaka, using large tents and partitions from 1 to 2 days. On the 3rd, a simulation was conducted to confirm the work flow of inoculation.
Inside the venue, which is 15 meters wide and 25 meters long, there is a space for reception and consent forms, a waiting area, etc. according to the guidance of the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare.
In addition, the venue is a one-way street where inoculation can be carried out by the flow of three systems of people at the same time, and another large tent is set up as a waiting place for those who have completed the inoculation.
On the 3rd, the person in charge of the local government also visited and took a video of the inside and measured the interval between chairs.
A person in charge of Neyagawa City, Osaka, said, "I came to study to create a special venue. I would like to consider whether to introduce it based on the information obtained this time."
According to the rental company, it takes about 1000 square meters = about 4 tennis courts to set up a venue of this size, but it can be built in about a day.
Also, the installation and rental costs are about 20 million yen a month.
Mr. Koji Nishio, president of the rental company "Nishio Rent All", said, "I thought that the local governments were also worried, so I tried to make something that could be made with our materials. I would like to provide a venue of a scale that matches the actual situation of each local government."
2. Notify municipalities of the outline of the system for grasping the inoculation status <Government>
Toward the vaccination of the new coronavirus, the government is building a new system that allows local governments to grasp the vaccination status of each individual in near real time by using My Number. Was notified to municipalities nationwide.
According to this, if a new system is constructed, it will be possible to improve the response in case of receiving two vaccinations in different local governments due to reasons such as moving, or losing the coupon required for vaccination.
In addition, we have introduced a mechanism to grasp the inoculation status by reading the number and barcode printed on the coupon ticket, and we do not handle my number or my number card at the inoculation venue.
In addition, although the new system does not support vaccination reservations, it will consider cooperation if the local government introduces it.
The government will continue to provide information to local governments about the new system, which will lead to smooth vaccination.

We will share information and deepen cooperation, and a smooth and prompt inoculation system. We would like to work together as a team to build the building. "
The meeting was held privately except at the beginning, and according to the city, the medical association reported the number of medical workers scheduled to be vaccinated before the residents.
In addition, the municipalities reported on the status of preparations for vaccination of residents.
In the future, the team will share information such as the availability of venues for actual vaccinations to solve problems, and the city will coordinate with the national government to show information such as vaccination schedules.
