[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Seongbuk-gu (Mayor Lee Seung-ro) will begin COVID-19 vaccinations from the 27th at 102 designated medical institutions within the district for residents aged 65 to 74 and patients with chronic severe respiratory diseases (respiratory disabled persons).

From June 7, vaccinations will start for residents aged 60 to 64 and teachers of kindergartens, daycare centers, and 1st to 2nd grade elementary school students, with all eligible individuals receiving their first dose by June 19.

Additionally, during this vaccination period, those who missed reservations among the second quarter vaccination targets (disabled persons, elderly, veterans, care workers, healthcare workers, essential social workers, and chronic kidney disease patients) can also get vaccinated after making a prior reservation.

The number of eligible residents aged 60 to 74 in Seongbuk-gu is 76,398, with the current pre-registration rate at 55.6%.

Pre-registration continues until June 3, and reservations can be made online or by phone through the Seongbuk-gu call center. A district official explained, “Online reservations can be made by anyone on behalf of family members, so we strongly encourage online reservations. If online or phone reservations are difficult, visiting the local community service center can provide assistance.”

If you wish to cancel or change your reservation two days before vaccination, you can cancel and rebook online or by calling the call center. If you feel unwell the day before or on the day of vaccination, contact the designated medical institution to reschedule and receive the vaccination safely on a day when you are in good health.

Lee Seung-ro, Mayor of Seongbuk-gu, stated, “As the vaccination targets expand, we are making every effort to ensure systematic and stable vaccine administration.” He added, “We will thoroughly supervise the designated medical institutions conducting these vaccinations, and above all, we ask for the cooperation and interest of all residents regarding the COVID-19 vaccination.”
