Accelerating the vaccination rate of new crown virus vaccines for the elderly, especially the elderly, is good for individuals, families, society, and country.

New crown virus vaccination,

Can I prevent severe illnesses and death?

The new crown virus is a new virus, which is susceptible to the whole population, and among the susceptible people, the most vulnerable is the elderly. Because the immune function of the elderly itself is weaker than young people, and most of them have various basic diseases. Once infected, compared with adults and children, the risk of severe illness and death is very high.

The vaccination of the new coronal virus vaccination has a good protective effect on preventing severe illnesses and preventing death. In other words, vaccinating the new coronary vaccine is effective for reducing the severe and death of the elderly.

New crown virus vaccination

Unsafe to the elderly?

Existing data show that at present, the elderly who have vaccinated the Chinese new crown virus vaccine worldwide are hundreds of millions of doses, the highest age, overseas is 106 years old and domestic is also 106 years old. After relevant data statistics, the adverse reaction rate of the elderly who vaccinated the new crown virus vaccine was slightly lower than that of young people, so the vaccination of the new crown virus vaccination was safe for the elderly.

The elderly rarely go out and live remotely.

Do you want to get vaccine?

Some elderly people may feel at home, rarely go out, or do not go to the countryside, so the risk of infection should be very small.

However, with the popularity of Omikon's mutation, because of its faster transmission, more hidden characteristics, and the increase in vaccine vaccination coverage, asymptomatic infections are increasing. If the family of asymptomatic infected people return home, it will inevitably bring the danger of infection to the elderly. Not long ago, there were also reports that the grandson of the asymptomatic infected person went home to see the 99 -year -old grandma, and the 99 -year -old grandmother was transmitted to the new crown pneumonia virus.

Because my country's epidemic prevention and control is well done, our country's vaccination strategy is based on high -risk people and key groups, and finally gradually transition to elderly people over 60 years old. If we want to build a strong immune barrier, this short board must be supplemented. Only by improving the vaccination rate of the elderly, can we truly win the initiative and time for the prevention and control of our country's epidemic.
