    The joint prevention and control mechanism of the State Council today issued the "Work Plan for Strengthening the New Coronavirus Vaccination of the Elderly", requiring adherence to the principle of "due diligence"; Adhere to the government's leadership, departmental linkage, and implement territorial management responsibilities; Adhere to accurate investigation and fine management; Insist on optimizing services and providing convenience; Persist in taking multiple measures at the same time and strengthen mobilization; Persist in strengthening supervision and promoting implementation
    .
    Accelerate the vaccination rate of people over 80 years old, and continue to increase the vaccination rate
    of people aged 60-79.
     
    The "Plan" pointed out that in the near future, all localities have insisted on focusing on the elderly over 60 years old, further compacting territorial responsibilities, increasing organizational and social mobilization, and striving to increase the vaccination rate
    of the new crown virus.
    The first dose vaccination rate of people over 60 years old has exceeded 90%, but it is necessary to continue to do a good job of full vaccination and booster immunization for people aged 60-79, especially people over 80 years old
    .
     
    The Plan calls for booster vaccine selection and time intervals
    .
    All vaccines and combinations approved for booster immunization can be used for the first booster dose in the following combinations:
     
    2 doses of inactivated vaccine + 1 dose of inactivated vaccine (5 approved inactivated vaccines for conditional marketing or emergency use, such as Sinopharm Zhongsheng Beijing Company, Wuhan Company, Beijing Kexing Zhongwei, Shenzhen Kangtai, and Institute of Biomedical Research of the Academy of Medical Sciences, can be used in combination);
     
    2 doses of inactivated vaccine + 1 dose of CanSino intramuscular recombinant new coronavirus vaccine (adenovirus type 5 vector);
     
    2 doses of inactivated vaccine + 1 dose of CanSino inhaled recombinant coronavirus vaccine (adenovirus type 5 vector);
     
    2 doses of inactivated vaccine + 1 dose of recombinant protein vaccine [optional Zhifeilong Kema recombinant new coronavirus vaccine (CHO cell), Zhuhai Lizhu recombinant new coronavirus fusion protein (CHO cell) vaccine];
     
    1 dose of CanSino intramuscular recombinant new coronavirus vaccine (adenovirus type 5 vector) + 1 dose of CanSino intramuscular recombinant new coronavirus vaccine (adenovirus vector type 5).

     
    1 dose of CanSino intramuscular recombinant new coronavirus vaccine (adenovirus type 5 vector) + 1 dose of CanSino inhaled recombinant new coronavirus vaccine (adenovirus type 5 vector).

     
    Time interval
    .
    According to real-world research and clinical trial data at home and abroad, combined with the actual vaccination of the elderly population in China, the interval between the first dose of booster immunization and the full vaccination is adjusted to more than
    3 months.
     
    The comprehensive group of the joint prevention and control mechanism of the State Council requires that local joint prevention and control mechanisms at all levels should establish special classes, make special arrangements for the new crown virus vaccination work for the elderly, clarify relevant responsibilities, timely grasp the progress of work in the jurisdiction, timely communicate and unify the "blocking points" in the work
    .
    Further implement the vaccination of the elderly in key places such as nursing homes, dry rest homes, nursing homes, universities for the elderly, elderly activity centers, and fitness and entertainment venues for the elderly, as well as gatherings, large-scale activities, group tours and other key activities with a large number of
    people.
     
    Do a good job of mapping the target population
    .
    All localities should make full use of big data means to carry out big data comparison through databases such as population, social security, medical insurance, and residents' health records, accurately find out the base of target groups over 60 years old, and establish target group accounts
    .
    Scientific assessment of contraindications, for those who do have contraindications to vaccination, to list the specific reasons
    one by one.
     
    All localities should continue the various measures that have been effective in the early days to facilitate the people, and continue to provide maximum convenience
    for the elderly through measures such as setting up green channels for the elderly, temporary vaccination sites, and mobile vaccination vehicles.
    It is necessary to carry out training on the determination of contraindications to vaccination step by step, and guide medical staff to scientifically determine contraindications to vaccination (including: (1) severe allergic reactions have occurred during previous vaccination, such as anaphylactic shock and laryngeal edema; (2) Acute infectious diseases are in the fever stage and vaccination is suspended; (3) Severe chronic diseases are in the acute attack period to suspend vaccination, such as tumor patients undergoing chemotherapy, patients with hypertensive crisis, coronary heart disease patients with myocardial infarction, autoimmune nervous system diseases in the advanced stage, epilepsy patients in the seizure stage; (4) Life has entered the terminal stage due to serious chronic diseases).

    For the disabled and semi-disabled elderly, medical personnel with rich experience in diagnosis and treatment and vaccination can be selected to form vaccination teams, carry common equipment and drugs needed during post-vaccination observation period, and provide door-to-door vaccination services
    .
    Vaccination sites should do a good job in medical security in accordance with the "four haves" requirements of having on-site medical personnel on duty, first-aid equipment and drug guarantees, 120 ambulances to transport patients, and having transfer channels and green channels for treatment, and do a good job in monitoring and handling
    suspected abnormal reactions to vaccination after vaccination for the elderly.
    During the vaccination process, in addition to strictly following the requirements of "three checks and seven to one verification" and vaccination work specifications, it is necessary to carefully and meticulously explain to the elderly, patiently answer the inquiries of the elderly, pay attention to the physical condition of the elderly, and improve the temperature
    of vaccination services.
     
    All localities should broaden their thinking, take multiple measures at the same time, adopt diversified methods, produce easy-to-understand publicity materials according to the characteristics of the elderly, and mobilize the whole society to participate in mobilizing the elderly for vaccination
    .
    It is necessary to vigorously strengthen publicity through the whole media, including the necessity of vaccination, the safety and effectiveness
    of vaccines.
    It is necessary to carry out scientific education on the meaning and benefits of vaccination, and fully publicize the effect of
    vaccines on preventing severe disease and death.
    It is necessary to strengthen publicity through programs that the elderly like to watch or listen to, concentrate publicity in places where the elderly are active, and use the new media matrix to produce public interest advertisements for timely publicity
    .
    It is necessary to fully mobilize the enthusiasm of the families of the elderly, and mobilize the elderly to be vaccinated
    through family members.
    It is necessary to strengthen technical guidance for popularizing science and improve the ability
    of professionals to communicate and publicize.
    It is necessary to increase the frequency and coverage of publicity, strengthen official media release work, respond to social concerns in a timely manner, organize experts to give more publicity and interpretation, and guide the public to actively vaccinate and take the initiative to vaccinate
    .
     
    All localities should strengthen the supervision and evaluation of vaccination work for the elderly in their jurisdiction, fully grasp the progress and quality of vaccination work, summarize vaccination work experience, find weak links, and continuously improve work
    .
    It is necessary to go deep into the grassroots level for investigation and guidance, and resolutely put an end to simplification and "one-size-fits-all"
