Let's take a closer look at this with medical reporter Cho Dong-chan.



Q. About an hour ago, so there was news that the 80s who had the flu in Daejeon died 5 hours after the flu. Is there any further confirmation?



[Cho Dong-chan/medical reporter (specialist): This is the last news. A 82-year-old man who had a flu shot in Daejeon at 10 am today must have returned home, but the family went to the hospital at 2 pm and fell down. After moving to, he eventually died at 3 o'clock, so the quarantine authorities began an investigation because it was only 5 hours after vaccination.]



Q. As this information is constantly being known, it is okay to get the flu vaccine, but some of you are worried about this. Probably, but is it good to be right?



[Cho Dong-chan / Medical reporter (specialist): In the United States, the number of flu deaths is about 10,000 each year, and in Korea, according to the data from the National Statistical Office in 2018, it is about 2,900.

With the flu shot, the mortality rate is reduced from 52% to up to 79%.

Even if you hold it low, you can save as many as 1,500 lives in Korea.

In particular, 90% of flu deaths are aged 65 or older.

I think it would be better to get it right.]



Q. However, people who died after getting the flu vaccine came out, so people may be worried, but are there frequent side effects?



[Cho Dong-chan/medical reporter (specialist): There are so many people who get flu shots, so I have always suffered from side effects.

It is expected that 29 million people will be hit in Korea this year, and regardless of the flu vaccine, it is bound to overlap with patients who fall due to stroke or heart attack.

Nevertheless, acute shock or severe neuropathy such as paralysis of the lower extremities may appear, so even one possibility needs to be thoroughly investigated.]



Q. Now, for those who plan to get the flu vaccine in the future, especially when going to get hit, especially nervous Is there anything I need to use?



[Cho Dong-chan/medical journalist (specialist): I think it would be good to take a close look at the sudden initial symptoms described in the U.S. Disease Control and Prevention. Difficulty breathing, a throat breathing Hives, a pale face, weakness in the body, and rapid heartbeat or dizziness.

Influenza vaccination can be life-threatening, so you need to get immediate first aid. These symptoms appear within minutes to hours, and the more dangerous it is, the sooner it is.

That is why the UK health authorities recommend that you stay at the hospital for at least 15 minutes after vaccination, and go home and take a comfortable rest for



3 hours

.]

Q. So, after getting hit for about 3 hours, you should take a break, you should observe this. Who else should be more careful?



[Cho Dong-chan/medical reporter (specialist): Those who have had an egg allergy or had a flu vaccination and had a difficult experience should tell their medical staff in advance and be more careful.

Besides mild headache and mild fever, muscle aches only common, uncommon, although not greatly worry.]
