[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Oh Hwan-joo] Muan-gun, Jeollanam-do (Governor Kim San) announced on the 21st that it will operate two temporary COVID-19 vaccination centers starting from the end of February.

The county will operate the temporary COVID-19 vaccination centers at Seungdal Culture and Arts Center and Namak Health Living Support Center, which offer larger spaces with better ventilation and can comply with quarantine rules, rather than the existing public health centers.

In particular, a COVID-19 Temporary Vaccination Promotion Team has been formed to conduct vaccinations not only at the two vaccination centers but also at about 40 public health sub-centers and entrusted medical institutions.

A Muan-gun Public Health Center official stated, "Recently, the population of Muan-gun has been increasing, and the Oryong district and Namak New Town account for 50% of the total population," adding, "To fulfill the role of the provincial government location, we will differentiate ourselves from other cities and counties by operating two vaccination centers."

Deputy Governor Kim Hoe-pil said, "We will thoroughly prepare in advance to ensure stable and efficient vaccination promotion."

The implementation promotion team is led by the Deputy Governor and consists of seven department heads, including the head of the practical promotion team (Director of the Economic Construction Bureau), the vaccine supply team, and the target management team. Considering all possible situations during vaccination, a regional consultative body will be formed and operated.
