The Chinese government is also the first to approve the domestic synofam corona 19 vaccine.

It was announced that the prevention rate was 79%, but it is expected that the full-scale vaccination will begin as the new year begins.

The Chinese government first approved the launch of a domestic vaccine on the last day of 2020.

Sinopharm, a state-owned pharmaceutical company, accepted the application based on the data collected during the phase 3 clinical trial.

Although development is not complete, authorities have acknowledged the need for emergency use as it is.

The prevention rate of conditionally licensed Chinese vaccines is around 79%.

It is lower than those made by US or German pharmaceutical companies, and slightly higher than those made by UK pharmaceutical companies.

Chinese pharmaceutical company Sinopharm, however, has postponed its disclosure, saying it will release specific data later.

China, suffering from COVID-19 responsibility, has hurried to develop vaccines as a public good.

In addition, as Western countries competitively released vaccines, it would have been difficult to delay further release.

The Chinese government has stated that it will perform thorough quality control in the future as it has conditionally allowed it.

China has already begun vaccination in 10 provinces including Guangdong, Jiangsu and Sichuan.

We have even completed transport training with the goal of inoculating 50 million people with a high risk of infection by New Year’s Day next year.

It was heralded that the vaccinations in China will be in full swing from the beginning of the new year.

Overseas, countries with large populations in South America and Asia, such as Brazil and Indonesia, mainly contracted vaccines made in China.

As the dose increases, the superiority and inferiority to other vaccines are expected to gradually become masked.
