Reporter Ahn, Pfizer vaccine is also arriving in Korea today.
<Reporter> About
58,000 Pfizer vaccines are expected to arrive at Incheon Airport around 12:00 noon today. These vaccines will be delivered directly to 5 vaccination centers nationwide without going through the distribution center.
The first vaccination of Pfizer's vaccine will be administered tomorrow at the Central Vaccination Center in Seoul for 300 medical staff at the National Medical Center and a hospital dedicated to Corona 19 in the metropolitan area.
As the distribution and storage temperature of Pfizer vaccine is difficult to be around -75 degrees Celsius, vaccination begins at the vaccination center that can manage it first, and then it is expanded to each medical institution.
