Regarding the fourth mass vaccination of the new coronavirus vaccine, Sapporo City temporarily suspended the vaccination at the inhabitant center due to the influence of the polling place for the election of the House of Councilors, but it resumed on the 20th.
Regarding the fourth mass vaccination, Sapporo City has been suspended since the 20th of last month because the inhabitant center, which was the venue, will be used as a voting place before the upper house election.
After that, the city resumed mass vaccination at nine inhabitant centers except Kita Ward from the 20th, saying that it was ready.
Of these, at the Kiyota Ward Citizens Center, people who made reservations in advance visited and received vaccinations at the start of reception at 10 am.
A man in his 80s who received the vaccination said, "Since the number of infected people has been increasing recently, I came to receive the vaccination. I feel a little relieved."
According to the city of Sapporo, as of the 19th, more than 49,000 people received the fourth vaccination, which is 7.4% of the target people aged 60 and over.
Yukio Hosokawa, Chief of the Coordination Section, Sapporo City Vaccination Department, said, "Since the number of infected people is increasing rapidly in Sapporo City, we would like the target people to utilize the mass vaccination at the inhabitant center." ..
