“When it comes to the COVID-19 crisis - compared to any other advanced nation - our country is overcoming it in a stable manner. We will also surely prevail over this fourth wave fueled by the spread of the Delta variant. The inoculations are also approaching their target. In October, 70 percent of the total population will have received their second shots, and vaccination rate targets will be raised once more.”

“The current social distancing plan was revised with the aim of relieving the socio-economic burden, so it is less effective in curbing the virus. The daily tally may climb to 3,000 unless stronger regulations are implemented. One of the most important goals of the vaccination drive is to prevent elderly people from falling into a critical condition and reducing the death rate among them. It seems appropriate to finish the second round of vaccinations for people aged 60 or older, and then proceed to those in their 50s. The first dose is insufficient to prevent Delta variant infections. Recent findings show that the variant is as twice as contagious than the original virus and more likely to cause severe illness.”
