The new crown pneumonia vaccination plan has begun. An 87-year-old man was sent to the Vaccination Center of Guanyong Gymnasium in Jordan yesterday (4th) and was accused of being too old to be vaccinated.

He emphasized that elders over 85 years old must not be given injections, but they need to consult a doctor after arriving at the scene, and the doctor will give advice on vaccination.

The centre has also vaccinated healthy elderly people in their 90s.

Guo Baoxian, medical director of the Guanyong Gymnasium Vaccination Center, said that age is one of the high-risk factors of "relative (vaccination) taboo". The center will carefully handle vaccinators over 85 years old.

He emphasized that the group of elderly people must not be given injections, but they need to consult a doctor after arriving at the scene, report the medical history and condition, and then the doctor will give advice on vaccination.

He said that this practice has started on the first day of operation of the center, and the center has also vaccinated healthy elderly people in their 90s.

He revealed that the 87-year-old uncle who was denied vaccination yesterday suffers from high blood pressure and heart disease. "We hope that the elderly will know that it is for the sake of their safety if they are beaten, and that they may not be beaten today, but they will be beaten on the first day. Got it."

The Civil Service Bureau stated that the vaccination plan does not set an upper age limit for vaccinated persons. Whether the elderly is suitable for vaccination depends on the assessment of medical staff in community vaccination centers, public and private clinics.

Liu Yulong, chairman of the Scientific Committee on Vaccine Preventable Diseases, stated in February that elders over 60 can be vaccinated with Kexing vaccine, and the committee has never set an upper limit on the age for injection.

For Fosun/BioNTech's "Fubitai" vaccine, the committee recommends that the elderly with severe frailty and those over 85 years old should be evaluated by the attending doctor before being vaccinated.
