<Reporter> The



first day that Seoul and Gyeonggi Province started autonomous vaccination.




340,000 people, including academy instructors, delivery drivers, and transportation workers, get the Pfizer vaccine for two weeks.



Each local government has selected priority vaccination targets in consideration of regional characteristics and quarantine conditions.



[Kim Nam-ho/Seoul Transportation Corporation employee: I got a text saying that it was possible to get it right, so it was difficult to perform music these days, so I was pleasantly hit.] The



vaccination notification was made hastily a day before, or there was no guidance at all, which caused some confusion.



[Song Eun-cheol/Seoul Metropolitan City Infectious Disease Control Division: During the verification process, the list was merged and there was some confusion. For those who have not been vaccinated, check the current status and get vaccinated… .]



380,000 people, including kindergarten and elementary school first and second grade teachers, and daycare workers, have also started getting the vaccine.



Elementary school 3rd graders and older, middle school teachers and staff will be vaccinated from the 28th.



From next week, vaccination will also start for 630,000 high school students and faculty members who have agreed to the vaccination.



So far, 30.4% of the total population has been vaccinated at least once.



On the 21st of last month, when the inoculation was in full swing, the first vaccination rate was 29.2%, and it rose only 1.2% points until yesterday, 22 days later.



It is expected that the speed of inoculation will gain momentum again when a large-scale inoculation begins for the general public in their 50s at the end of this month.
