拟挨家挨户解释疫苗疑问 黄循财:疫苗不会留给迟疑观望者

拟挨家挨户解释疫苗疑问    黄循财:疫苗不会留给迟疑观望者

黄循财表示,疫苗不会留给迟疑观望的人。

《海峡时报》报道,联合领导政府抗疫跨部门工作小组的教育部长黄循财续指,若有新疫苗将会立即邀请公众上网预约,并表示若有受邀者因某种原因不愿预购,将会立即邀请另一组人接种。

“选择不接种的人,那是你的个人选择,但无论如何我们都会推出疫苗供应,若想要继续等,只能接受结果,之后要接种疫苗可能就没有存货。”

黄循财也强调,疫苗不会留给还在迟疑观望的人。

黄循财补充,今年我国防疫工作重点将会集中在扩大疫苗接种计划,确保国人能够接受接种计划,但并非已定量配给(ratio)的方式分配疫苗,因为这样做不符合国家利益。

颜金勇也说,由于一些疫苗预购协议不一定会落实,为了分散风险,我国已向多家供应商采购足够疫苗剂量为全国人口接种。

“预购协议意味着在疫苗研发出来之前就得下订单,否则将失去优先权。不是所有疫苗都会研发成功,因此必须确保疫苗组合多元化,才会获得足够剂量。”

应对年长者进行公众教育 解释疫苗的安全与重要

尽管如今我国已开始接种疫苗工作,但对于疫苗的理解仍不足,这也会引起公众的忧心,尤其是年长者。卫生部长颜金勇表示,这也凸显了公众教育的必要,尤其是年长者的教育,为了能让他们接受疫苗,或许必须下苦功,挨家挨户解释接种疫苗的安全性与 重要性。

卫生部长颜金勇表示,能够理解公众对于接种疫苗的担忧,因为这毕竟是一款新的疫苗,长期成效仍是未知数。

“这也凸显了公众教育的必要,尤其很多年长者都足不出户,乐龄活动也因防疫措施而暂停。我们别无他法,只能挨家挨户走访,为他们解答疑问,帮助他们上网预约接种。”

至于是否会对接种疫苗者放宽部分限制,黄循财则表示,政府目前仍在研究疫苗能够减低传染风险,现阶段仍无法承诺任何实质的接种好处。

黄循财指出,若全国人口都接种疫苗,政府也会考虑进一步放宽限制,但放宽程度得取决于疫苗的效能和保护作用。

“原则上,若绝大多数国人都接种疫苗,科学证据也证实疫苗能降低传染风险,并达到群体免疫,那么我们可以考虑进一步放宽安全管理措施。相信这也会推动更多人上前接种。”
