  When I tried to explain 新型コロナワクチン接種の予診票 in English, I had some trouble in understanding Japanese words properly and saying suitable English words. Fortunately, I found the translations in several foreign languages. The site says "※The following are the translations of the official form in Japanese. Please fill in the Japanese form by referring to the following translations."

  I had the first dose of the vaccine and am going to receive the second dose after three weeks. I studied some English words and phrases for the COVID-19 vaccination.
