Shanghai Mobile Team went to the village for vaccination. Can this improve the vaccination rate of the elderly?

It will definitely improve the vaccination rate of the elderly, because the actions of the elderly have not changed, so it is definitely possible for joint defense personnel to go directly to the village to vaccinate the elderly with mobility difficulties. It can be said that it is effortless for us young people to go to the hospital for COVID-19 vaccination, but it is a challenge for the disabled or the elderly. Considering this, many provincial and municipal governments have specially sent vaccine teams to the countryside to expand the vaccination rate.

What happened? The Shanghai municipal government held a vaccination meeting, at which it was clearly proposed to improve the vaccination rate in rural areas, so the local government sent vaccine mobile teams to the village in batches to vaccinate the elderly with mobility difficulties. It not only improves the vaccination rate, but also effectively prevents the possibility of virus spreading from cities to rural areas. It is helpful to cut off the route of vaccine transmission fundamentally and let the vaccines in Shanghai pass through customs as soon as possible.

Mobile teams are a very good measure. It is a very good way for vaccines to enter the village. Many villages are left-behind elderly people at present, and a large part of them have low awareness of the harm of the virus. The vast majority of elderly people are reluctant to be vaccinated because they think vaccination is of little use, so the vaccination rate in rural areas can be improved by entering the village. On the one hand, the life safety of the elderly is guaranteed, and the task of vaccine coverage can also be completed in terms of interests.

The government should actively go to the countryside to publicize the benefits of vaccination. The low vaccination rate in rural areas is entirely due to insufficient understanding. At present, the phenomenon of low cultural literacy of the elderly is widespread in rural areas. The local government should send staff to the countryside to publicize the benefits of vaccination. At the same time, it can also give some material rewards to the elderly who are actively vaccinated and the elderly who are inconvenient to move. This has been promoted in many cities, and many cities often provide incentives such as cooking oil and rice to people who are vaccinated.
