[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Saeyan] Gyeongsangnam-do conducted a Pfizer vaccine inoculation simulation training on the 18th at the regional vaccination center (Masan Indoor Gymnasium, Changwon City).

Gyeongnam Province will begin administering the Pfizer vaccine to seniors aged 75 and older starting April 1.

The simulation training involved 54 participants, along with about 100 people including officials from Gyeongnam Province, provincial council members, and representatives from 18 cities and counties.

Park Jeong-yeol, Chair of the Culture and Welfare Committee of the Gyeongsangnam Provincial Council, and Heo Seong-mu, Mayor of Changwon City, personally participated as vaccine recipients to inspect the vaccination preparation process.

The simulation training proceeded in the order of vaccination preparation demonstration, simulated vaccination training, and adverse reaction response training, assuming 40 actual vaccine recipients. Participants took on roles as vaccinees and medical staff as in real situations.

Vaccinees underwent a fever check at the entrance of the vaccination center and completed a medical questionnaire. Medical personnel, including doctors, reviewed the questionnaire to assess the health status of the vaccinees and decided on vaccination eligibility.

Before the simulated vaccination training, there was a demonstration of vaccine preparation procedures such as thawing and dilution of the Pfizer vaccine.

After the simulated vaccination training, adverse reaction response training was conducted, which involved initial emergency measures for patients experiencing adverse reactions and transporting them by ambulance to the emergency room.
