防衛省、大規模接種センターを公開　東京と大阪で

　防衛省は９日、自衛隊が東京と大阪で運営する新型コロナウイルスワクチンの大規模接種センターでの接種の様子を報道陣に公開した。公開は５月２４日の開設初日以来で、対象地域を７都府県に拡大してからは初めて。
　東京・大手町の会場では、副反応が懸念される人向けに、接種から経過観察までベッドに横たわったまま受けられるブースなどが新たに公開された。現場を取りまとめる「接種隊長」の河野修一１等陸佐は「来場者の不安を払拭（ふっしょく）できるよう改善に取り組んでいる。しっかり説明して対応したい」と語った。
　大阪会場で妻と一緒に接種を受けた兵庫県西宮市の自営業盛林勉さん（６９）は「地元の接種は８月半ばになると言われてこちらに来た。外回りの仕事で感染しないか不安だったが、安心できる」と話した。（2021/06/09-12:30）

Japan's Defense Ministry showed the press the COVID-19 vaccination process at Self-Defense Forces-run sites in Tokyo and Osaka Prefecture on Wednesday.
   The ministry opened up the vaccination venues for people aged 65 or over to the media second time after a similar press event was held on their opening day on May 24.
   At the Tokyo site in the Otemachi district, the members of the media were shown new booths in which people who may suffer side effects are able to go through the entire process, starting from receiving the vaccine until the follow-ups, while lying down.
   "We're working to make improvements to dispel people's worries," said Ground SDF Col. Shuichi Kawano, who is in charge of operations at the Tokyo venue.
   At the Osaka site, western Japan, Tsutomu Moribayashi, a 69-year-old resident of the city of Nishinomiya, Hyogo Prefecture, who came with his wife, said that he chose to be vaccinated at the venue as he would have to wait until mid-August to receive his shot locally.
