South Korea yesterday announced plans to expand its immunization campaign in the second quarter to include more elderly citizens, healthcare workers and other front-line professionals, with an aim to inoculate nearly one-quarter of its 52 million people by June.
Starting next month, more priority groups are to receive a vaccine, including more people aged 65 or above, other healthcare workers, police officers, firefighters, soldiers and flight attendants, the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency (KDCA) said.
South Korea began inoculating high-risk medical workers and the critically ill at the end of last month as it battles a third wave of COVID-19 and seeks to achieve herd immunity by November.
