Imsil-gun Awarded as an Excellent Institution in the National Vaccination Program

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Nosik] Imsil-gun, Jeonbuk, announced on the 16th that it was selected as an excellent institution in the 2020 National Immunization Program performance evaluation and received the Jeonbuk Governor's institutional commendation.

The National Immunization Program Excellent Institution award is given to local governments that have contributed to creating an atmosphere that protects the health of residents from infectious diseases and strengthens social safety.

This year, the county was highly evaluated for its performance in the pneumococcal vaccination program for seniors aged 65 and over and the children's national immunization program.

So far, efforts to improve vaccination rates have been continuously made by promoting vaccinations and providing customized intensive management for unvaccinated individuals, as well as analyzing problems and devising improvement plans for underperforming areas.

In particular, by securing its own budget, Imsil-gun implemented free flu vaccinations for all residents, making the best efforts to block and prevent the spread of infectious diseases through vaccination support for the entire population.

With this award, the Health and Medical Center plans to further activate the National Immunization Program by promoting vaccinations through various channels, thoroughly managing vaccination records, and tracking unvaccinated individuals to contribute to the health promotion of residents.

County Governor Sim Min said, “This year, we paid special attention to infectious disease prevention by providing free flu vaccinations to all residents in preparation for the simultaneous outbreak with COVID-19,” and added, “We will continue to work harder to protect the health of residents from infectious diseases and build a healthy Imsil-gun.”
