[아시아경제 김유리 기자] By the end of this year, China has vaccinated 890 million people with the Corona 19 vaccine, and is actually trying to immunize them.

According to the state-run Global Times on the 3rd, China is planning to inoculate 560 million people, or 560 million people, of the total population of 1.4 billion people, by the end of June. Then, by the end of the year, additional vaccinations will be given to 330 million people, so that 64% of the total population will receive the Corona 19 vaccine. Currently, China’s COVID-19 vaccination rate is 3.5% of the total population.

On the 2nd, the China Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reviewed plans to speed up the vaccine vaccination rate for Corona 19 at a video conference with each branch. The foreign press reported that the Corona 19 vaccination meeting was convened to hold important events such as the communist party’s 100th anniversary ceremony in July, the second half of the international conference, and the next year’s Beijing Winter Olympics without any problems.

Some local governments in China, such as Anhui Province and Shanghai, have already set a goal of vaccinating 40-50% of the region’s population in the first half of the year. China is also equipped with conditions for accelerating vaccination in China by mass-producing domestic-made Corona 19 vaccines at Sinopharm (Chinese Medicine Group) and Sinobac.
