The Department of Education and Training also said: At present, the fact that students in the whole province are given priority for vaccination is a very encouraging thing to ensure the safety of students when they return to school. On the part of the Department of Education and Training, all students aged 12-17 in all schools have been screened and detailed instructions have been issued to facilitate the coordination of vaccination.

Currently, all students are vaccinated at school. However, due to their young age, ensuring students' psychological well-being before and after vaccination is very important and the Department notes that schools need to do a good job of propaganda so that students understand and feel secure, avoiding anxiety and nervousness.
