　　China News Service, Shenyang, January 12 (Li Xi) According to a press conference held by the Information Office of the Shenyang Municipal Government on the 12th, 82,727 key populations in Shenyang have been vaccinated against the new crown virus. The next step is for ordinary citizens to receive free vaccination.

　　Wang Ping, deputy director of the Shenyang Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said at the meeting that my country’s current vaccination strategy is to follow the "two-step" plan, and the first step is to vaccinate key populations.

The key populations mainly include those who are engaged in import cold chain, port quarantine, ship pilotage, aviation air service, fresh food market, public transportation, medical disease control and other high risk of infection, as well as those who go to work or study in high-risk countries or regions The vaccination of this part of the key population can try to ease the pressure of imported epidemic prevention and control, and reduce the risk of local cases and domestic outbreaks; 82,727 people have been inoculated.

　　As vaccines are approved for marketing, and vaccine production gradually increases, more vaccines will be put into use.

Through the orderly implementation of vaccination, ordinary people who meet the conditions will be vaccinated free of charge on the premise of knowing and voluntarily, gradually building an immune barrier among the population, and controlling the epidemic of new coronary pneumonia in China.

　　Wang Ping said that after vaccination, for individuals, the protective effect of vaccination is not 100%, and it takes a certain amount of time to produce protective antibodies; for groups, without the formation of an immune barrier, the new coronavirus remains Easy to spread.

Therefore, to prevent the rebound of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, other prevention and control measures must be adhered to at this stage, including protective measures such as wearing masks, washing hands frequently, frequent ventilation, and maintaining social distance.
