I got an overview of the schedule for the vaccine to begin to reach the municipalities for inoculation for the elderly in Tokyo.

The first four boxes of vaccines distributed from the country to the capital will be distributed to Setagaya Ward and Hachioji City in the week of the 5th of next month.

6400 boxes are required for all elderly people in Tokyo to be vaccinated, but it has not yet been decided when all vaccines will reach the municipalities.

Regarding vaccines for the elderly, the national government will distribute vaccines to each prefecture so that municipalities can start vaccination from the 12th of next month.



The first four boxes for 1950 people are scheduled to arrive in Tokyo next week on the 5th of next month, and the city is considering which ward, city, town, and village to distribute.



According to the people concerned, these 4 boxes are adjusted to be distributed to Setagaya Ward in the 23 wards and 2 boxes to Hachioji City in the municipalities.



The reason is that Setagaya Ward and Hachioji City have the largest population of elderly people aged 65 and over in the 23 wards and municipalities, respectively.



The capital will also distribute the second and subsequent weeks of the week on the 12th of next month in descending order of the elderly population, and plans to deliver 44 boxes to 22 wards and cities by the week of the 19th of next month.



The second week of next month will be


▽ Adachi Ward


▽ Ota Ward


▽ Nerima Ward


▽ Edogawa Ward


▽ Itabashi Ward


▽ Suginami Ward


▽ Machida City


▽ Fuchu City


▽ Chofu City


▽ 10 cities and wards of Nishitokyo City It


is expected that 9750 people will be delivered in total, 2 boxes each.



In addition, the third week of next month 19 days


▽ Katsushika


▽ Koto


▽ Kita-ku,


▽ Shinagawa


▽ Nakano


▽ Shinjuku


▽ Sumida-ku,


▽ Hino


▽ Tachikawa


in the ward and the city of ▽ of Kodaira 10


each A total of 9750 people will be delivered in 2 boxes each.



The 44 boxes up to the third time are for 21,450 people in total, which is 0.7% of the approximately 3.12 million elderly people in Tokyo.



On the other hand, one box will be distributed to each of the other 40 municipalities after the 26th of next month.



All elderly people in Tokyo need 6400 boxes of vaccines to inoculate, and the country has indicated that it will deliver vaccines for elderly people nationwide by the end of June, but all vaccines. It has not yet been decided when the vaccine will reach the municipalities.
