South Koreans aged 70 and older will be able to get free flu shots starting Monday.
They'll be available at public health clinics and designated medical centers.
Starting with this group, in phases, the free flu shots will cover more than 10-and-a-half million seniors.
The second round will be for seniors aged 62 and above, and that will start the following Monday, October 26th.
Vaccines are available for pregnant women and children 12 and under.
The authorities want to prevent a major flu outbreak, which would make fighting COVID-19 much harder.
