"This year's flu vaccine is very in short supply. The vaccine arrived a few days ago and it was sold out the next day. Some people even came to queue up just at dawn." A staff member of a community hospital said.
Since the beginning of this year, influenza vaccine shortages have occurred in many places such as Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Zhengzhou, Chongqing, and Zhenjiang. Some consumers said that making appointments for vaccines is comparable to Spring Festival travel rush. Based on this situation, various medical channels are stepping up the stock of influenza vaccines, including some e-commerce platforms.
Starting from October 21, Pinduoduo began to launch influenza vaccine appointment vaccination services in more than 30 cities across the country, including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Changsha, Nanjing, Xi'an, etc. Most of them are extremely popular "spot vaccines" on the market, with prices as low as 159 yuan.

"At present, the scarcity of influenza vaccines on the market is obvious to all. We urgently coordinated large domestic medical platforms and institutions, and finally transferred the vaccine supply for special outpatient clinics in private hospitals. So far, we have prepared 5,000 sets of spot vaccines in Shanghai, and 2,000 spot shots in Beijing and Hangzhou to meet the needs of consumers." The person in charge of Pinduoduo Big Health said.
Although vaccine resources are scarce, Pinduoduo's subsidies have not shrunk. "From now on, our 10 billion subsidy will fully subsidize influenza vaccines, with the lowest price reaching 159 yuan, and the subsidy intensity exceeds the past." The person in charge said.
It is reported that consumers only need to search for "flu vaccine" in the Pinduoduo app to find the corresponding product. After consumers complete the purchase of products in the corresponding city, they can make an appointment for vaccines. At the same time, each box of vaccine has a unique drug monitoring code traceability, which can scan and verify the truth and traceability to ensure safety, so that consumers can rest assured.
In addition, in addition to vaccine appointments, the platform also sets popular science pictures and videos of influenza vaccination on the product page: when to get vaccinated, why to get vaccinated, how to get vaccinated, and other issues can all be solved in one-stop.
