Although there were variables in the journey back to daily life, it did not return to the past when the government enforced strong distance. Instead, in order to increase the vaccination rate, we decided to set the validity period of the quarantine pass to 6 months, and to expand the target of additional vaccinations to adults 18 years of age or older.

From the 20th of the next month, the current quarantine pass is only valid for 6 months from the date of issuance, that is, the date of completion of vaccination.



The validity period is determined by adding one month to the recommended booster dose interval of 5 months to meet the vaccination date.



[Jung Eun-kyung/Director of the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention: In case of additional vaccination, the effect of the quarantine pass will take effect immediately after the



inoculation

You cannot eat food in the Vaccine Pass Hall, etc. in movie theaters where only those who have completed inoculation enter.



This is in consideration of the fact that mass infection cases occurred in movie theaters after the recovery of daily life.



In addition, leisure and welfare facilities for the elderly, such as senior centers and senior welfare centers, are only available to those who have completed the booster vaccination.



We decided to review the application of the quarantine pass to facilities such as PC rooms and academies mainly used by teenagers.



Vaccination was more aggressively recommended.



The booster dose, which was centered on the elderly and those vaccinated by Janssen, expands to all adults.



Those between the ages of 18 and 49 are included, and the vaccination interval is 5 months after the completion of the vaccination.



From the 2nd of the following month, you can select the inoculation date through the advance reservation website, and you can inoculate from the 4th.



If the medical institution you visited has residual vaccine, you can get it right from the 2nd of the next month.



At nursing hospitals and facilities that are undergoing booster immunization, the number of visiting immunization teams will be significantly increased to complete booster immunization by this week.



Seniors over the age of 60 will complete the booster vaccination within this year.
