[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Choi Hyun-joo] The Public Health Center of Haman-gun, Gyeongnam, will resume the free winter flu vaccination, which was temporarily suspended due to issues in the vaccine distribution process, starting from the 13th.


According to the health center, middle and high school students aged 13 to 18 can receive the vaccination sequentially from the 13th, and seniors aged 62 and above can receive it from the 19th. Children aged 12 and under and pregnant women have been receiving vaccinations since the 25th of last month. Those who wish to get vaccinated should bring their ID and visit designated medical institutions or health centers.



A health center official stated, "For safe vaccination, we recommend making a prior reservation at a nearby designated medical institution," adding, "Since the preventive effect appears about two weeks after vaccination, it is advised to complete the vaccination by next month considering the effectiveness."
