Seongbuk-gu Opens 2nd COVID-19 Vaccination Center at Jongam Intersection

Pfizer Vaccinations for Ages 18-59 in Progress... Vaccination Hours: 6 Days a Week, 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM

[Asia Economy Reporter Jong-il Park] Seongbuk-gu (Mayor Lee Seung-ro) will open a second COVID-19 vaccination center at Jongam Intersection starting from the 5th.

The plan is to expand the scale of vaccinations in the second half of the year and accelerate the vaccination process by adding an additional vaccination center.

The second center is located at 'Jongam Box Park,' an underpass space beneath the internal circulation road at Jongam Intersection.

Originally, this site was intended to be a multipurpose facility for residents' leisure by utilizing idle land, but in the second half of this year, it will be responsible for vaccinating citizens aged 18 to 59 due to COVID-19.

Vaccinations will be conducted six days a week, Monday through Saturday, from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM.

Before the operation began, on the morning of the 2nd, Mayor Lee Seung-ro conducted a final inspection of the center overall. He instructed, "Please focus all efforts to ensure residents can receive vaccinations safely and comfortably by thoroughly sectioning the movement flow of vaccine recipients by area and securing space to quickly transfer to medical institutions in case of severe adverse reactions." He also repeatedly urged, "As variant viruses are rapidly increasing, we must raise the vaccination rate to achieve herd immunity in the second half of the year."
