According to the government's survey of municipalities nationwide regarding the third vaccination of elderly people who had completed two vaccinations by the end of July last year, about 84% of all municipalities will be vaccinated by the end of next month. I answered that it is expected to finish.
To move ahead with the vaccination of the new corona vaccine, the government has announced 1741 cities nationwide regarding the time when the third vaccination will be completed for the elderly who have completed the second vaccination by the end of July last year. We conducted a survey on the wards, towns and villages.
As a result, 1456 local governments, which account for 83.6% of the total, answered that the vaccination is expected to be completed by the end of next month, which the government is aiming to end.
In addition, in 21 prefectures such as Aichi and Kyoto, all municipalities are expected to finish by the end of next month.
On the other hand, the local governments who answered that it will not be completed by the end of next month have said that it is not possible to secure medical staff to inoculate because the government has announced that it will be ahead of schedule.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications says, "We would like to hear issues from local governments, share information within the government, and encourage the progress of inoculation."
