Today (December 8), Shanghai held a press conference on the prevention and control of the new coronavirus pneumonia epidemic. Wu Huanyu, deputy director of the Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said that the confirmed case had only received one dose of new coronavirus vaccine , and the full vaccination was not completed in a standardized manner. Vaccination is an effective means to prevent infectious diseases. Vaccination with the new coronavirus can effectively reduce the incidence and severe disease rate and reduce the risk of transmission.
According to the relevant work requirements of the State Council Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism and the work deployment of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, the city actively, orderly and steadily promotes the vaccination of the new coronavirus. As of December 7, 47.1678 million doses have been administered in the city, covering 23.2711 million people, of which 21.6221 million have completed the full vaccination process. Starting from November 1, 2021, the new coronavirus vaccine has been fully launched, and 3.4665 million people have completed the enhanced immunization. Recently, we will focus on strengthening the vaccination work for the elderly over 60 years old and those aged 3-17. Citizens who have not been vaccinated yet are requested to complete the new coronavirus vaccination as soon as possible, and citizens who have completed the entire vaccination and have been over 6 months are requested to strengthen vaccination as soon as possible.
