While occupational inoculation of the new coronavirus vaccine will begin in earnest on the 21st, inoculation will also begin at 17 universities nationwide.

The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology has a policy of expanding vaccinations to local school staff and residents based on the university.

According to the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, there were consultations from 261 universities about vaccination at universities by the 18th of this month, and 174 universities applied for vaccination. 17 universities in the prefecture will start vaccination from the 21st.

The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology has a policy of expanding the vaccination to local elementary and junior high school faculty members and residents based on the university. We plan to expand to the region.



In addition, as it is an issue to secure a leader at a university that does not have a medical department, Tokushima University and others are calling for cooperation between universities and will accept vaccinations from neighboring universities.



If a doctor from an external medical institution is responsible for vaccination at the university, the government will provide a certain amount of financial assistance.



On the other hand, vaccination is based on the premise that the person wants it, and cautions are taken not to be forced by others or to be treated unfairly depending on the presence or absence of vaccination.

What are 17 universities in 11 prefectures?

According to the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology's summary as of 10 am on the 21st, vaccination will start on the 21st at at least 17 universities in 11 prefectures.
