In order to respond promptly after the development of the vaccine, the government is coordinating to formulate a basic policy that defines the subjects and priorities of vaccination by the end of next month.

According to the people involved, vaccination is being considered for giving priority to medical staff at high risk of infection and elderly people who are more likely to become seriously ill.

In addition, the government is deciding that all expenses will be covered by public expenses, and the government will start full-scale examination at the "New Coronavirus Infectious Diseases Control Subcommittee" starting next week.
