Regarding the vaccination of the new corona virus, the LDP working team called on the government to utilize Pfizer's vaccine in a large-scale vaccination of the local government that suspended the acceptance of applications because the delivery of the moderna vaccine has not caught up. I confirmed such things.
The Liberal Democratic Party's working team and others held a joint board meeting over the vaccination of the new coronavirus, and said that the delivery of the Moderna vaccine was not catching up, so the local government suspended the acceptance of applications for large-scale vaccination and occupational vaccination. We discussed the response.
Then, regarding the large-scale inoculation of local governments, it was confirmed that the government would be requested to utilize the unused Pfizer vaccine that was delivered for inoculation at medical institutions.
In addition, it has been pointed out that there is a risk of blood clots occurring extremely rarely after inoculation, and the AstraZeneca vaccine, which the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare has decided not to use for public inoculation for the time being, will be used after hearing the opinions of experts. I was urged to consider whether it could be done.
The working team and others will apply to the Minister for Regulatory Reform Kono within this week.
