Yongin City Launches Fourth COVID-19 Vaccine Inoculation... "Pre-reservation for Preferred Dates"

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Park No-hun] As COVID-19 infection cases are rising again, Yongin City is urging active fourth-dose vaccine inoculation to protect high-risk groups.

Yongin City is accepting pre-reservations for inoculation for those aged 50 and over (born before 1972) and those aged 18 and over with underlying medical conditions who have completed their third dose more than four months (120 days) ago.

Pre-reservations can be made through the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency (KDCA) vaccine inoculation website (ncvr.kdca.go.kr), the KDCA call center (1339), Cheoinn-gu Public Health Center (031-324-2717), Giheung-gu Public Health Center (031-324-6038), and Suji-gu Public Health Center (031-324-8499).

Same-day inoculation is available through Kakao Talk or Naver's remaining vaccine reservation, and you can also confirm availability by calling medical institutions directly.

For elderly citizens who find it difficult to make reservations themselves, guardians or children can make reservations on their behalf.

A city official stated, "COVID-19 vaccination is the most effective and important means to protect the health of ourselves, our families, and everyone in our community," and urged, "We call on elderly citizens and those with underlying medical conditions, who face high risks of severe illness and death from COVID-19 infection, to actively participate in the fourth dose inoculation."

The official added, "We ask citizens to comply with quarantine and prevention measures to prevent the spread and infection of COVID-19."
