While vaccination of the new corona virus has begun at 100 hospitals nationwide for medical professionals, one of the targets, a hospital in Musashimurayama City, Tokyo, is for employees who are planning to be vaccinated on the night of the 18th. A briefing session was held in Tokyo.
At the Murayama Medical Center of the National Hospital Organization in Musashimurayama City, Tokyo, where the briefing session was held, vaccination will begin on the 20th, and about 300 people including doctors and nurses are scheduled to be vaccinated.
About 40 of them participated in the briefing held on the night of the 18th.
At the briefing session, data on clinical trials in the United States comparing the new corona vaccine and the influenza vaccine were introduced regarding side reactions after vaccination.
Participants asked questions such as how many people declined the second vaccination due to side reactions after vaccination, and the conditions under which it is better to refrain from vaccination.
At this hospital, after hearing this explanation, the staff will submit the final consent form for vaccination.
The doctor who participated said, "The explanation resolved my vague doubts and anxieties."
Mr. Yoshiyuki Tanito, director of Murayama Medical Care Center, said, "There may be problems in the future after vaccination has started, but I would like to deal with each one and prepare for vaccination for the general public." It was.
