China Youth Daily Client Shanghai, May 23 (China Youth Daily, China Youth Daily reporter Wei Qimeng) in Shanghai this morning At the press conference on the prevention and control of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, Zhao Dandan, deputy director of the Shanghai Municipal Health Commission, introduced that as of yesterday, people aged 60 and over in the city had received a total of 9,617,700 doses of the new crown virus vaccine, covering 3,751,300 people, with a coverage rate of 64.51%; 3,612,000 people were vaccinated in the whole course, with a whole course vaccination rate of 62.11%; 2,283,100 people were boosted with immunization, with a coverage rate of 39.26%.

At present, 163 vaccination clinics in 16 districts of the city have gradually resumed routine vaccination services, accounting for about 40% of routine vaccination clinics. Among them, there are 105 community vaccination clinics, 26 dog injury treatment clinics, 3 BCG clinics, and 29 special needs vaccination clinics.

In order to avoid crowd gathering, community vaccination clinics mainly provide appointment vaccination services. Citizens can make online appointments through the application, Health Cloud App, etc., and pay attention to the announcements or SMS notifications of various medical institutions in time. Ask to go to replant as soon as possible.

Zhao Dandan said that citizens who have not been vaccinated recently, if conditions permit, please make an appointment in time to revaccinate. Delaying vaccination does not reduce the effectiveness of the body’s response to the vaccine. During the postponement of vaccination, please maintain good hygiene and health habits, wash your hands frequently, take the initiative to monitor the health of your baby and family members, and take the initiative to measure your body temperature when you feel feverish.
