<Reporter>



I am in front of the SK Bioscience plant in Andong, Gyeongbuk, where the AstraZeneca vaccine is consigned.



Ahead of the first vaccine shipment this morning, the military and police personnel patrol around the factory 24 hours a day.



From today, the amount of vaccine shipped is 750,000 people, 1.5 million doses, which are stored in a refrigerated warehouse between 2 degrees and 8 degrees.



The vaccine is first transferred to a distribution center in Icheon, Gyeonggi-do.



The transport process is overseen by the military, and from today, it is divided into 150,000 portions every day for five days, and the vaccine is stored in a container that is stored in a 5-ton vibration-free truck before being transported.



During the transfer process, you will be convoyed by the military and police, and once you arrive at the distribution center, you will check once more to see if the standard temperature is maintained.



And from tomorrow, the amount will be transferred to public health centers and nursing facilities across the country according to the number of facilities.



Civilian ships and military transport planes will be used in island areas.



The AstraZeneca vaccine starts vaccination against residents and workers in nursing homes and rehabilitation facilities nationwide from the day after tomorrow.
