On the island public opinion calls for a temporary suspension of vaccination
The authorities: I will get
In fact, there has been constant controversy on the island for high-end vaccines. On the day the high-end vaccine of
started, there were many cases of medical treatment after being unwell after vaccination. Kaohsiung A man in his 20s suddenly fell to the ground not long after the vaccination. Although he quickly recovered his consciousness, he was still sent to the hospital for observation in consideration of safety. In addition, there were 3 cases of discomfort in Taoyuan. One of them immediately recovered from consciousness after fainting, and the other two were suspected of fainting. What is the most worrying thing about
high-end vaccine is that its phase III clinical trial has not been completed, so its protective power is "not clear".
does not have three phases of data. First, it cannot confirm the actual protective power of the vaccine at all, and second, it cannot confirm what side effects, adverse events, and adverse reactions are there. Some doctors on the island pointed out that there are actually quite a lot of similar cases among American drugs. The second phase is excellent, but the third phase is often poor.
Taiwan public opinion even questioned that "it is better to drink fushui than to play high-end", believing that the comprehensive score of high-end vaccines with unknown effectiveness may not be as good as that of folk belief "fushui". It said that the cost of fushui is NT$31, and the cost-effectiveness is higher than that of high-end vaccines with 810 yuan per dose.
Therefore, after the death of a writer named Lu, the next comment with a lot of likes on his post reads: Please don’t test the lives of the people of Taiwan as white mice!
According to People's Daily, after the sudden death case occurred yesterday, a large number of Taiwanese netizens went to Tsai Ing-wen's social media to question the safety of high-end and asked the authorities to provide internationally certified vaccines. There are also many voices asking for a temporary delay in vaccination of high-end vaccines. The current Kuomintang chairman Jiang Qichen said that no one is happy to see the incident happen. The Taiwan authorities' "Ministry of Health and Welfare" should suspend high-end attacks, hoping that the "Ministry of Health and Welfare" will assist the family to find out the truth and give the family an explanation.
senior media person on the island also posted a message calling for the suspension of high-end vaccines. He said that some people dared to take risks for high-end vaccines, which are legendary high-end vaccines are secondary protein vaccines. Although they don’t know how protective it is against the new coronary pneumonia virus, at least the side effects are fewer. Since there are suspected death cases, should completely stop vaccinating high-end vaccines before is indeed found out to avoid more accidents and unfortunate events. Since the German BNT vaccine can come to Taiwan in mid-September, the command center should open the BNT vaccine as a registration option.
However, at yesterday's press conference, Chen Shizhong said that the first death case after receiving the "high-end" vaccine appeared on the island. The initial sentence was due to myocardial infarction, and judicial inspection will be conducted. He said that he would not suspend the vaccination of "high-end" vaccines because of this.

Safe vaccine shortage
may become a super "unexplosive bomb"
Four sudden deaths in two days, but the Taiwan authorities ignored public opinion. Not only did they stop administering high-end vaccines, they also continued to "sell" to more people.
According to People's Daily, citing Taiwanese media reports, Su Zhenchang, the head of Taiwan's administrative agency, recently ordered the Taiwan defense department to evaluate the new recruits being vaccinated and screened quickly to avoid becoming a breakthrough in epidemic prevention.But now only the high-end vaccines are left on the island, and many young people who have not yet served said they would rather be deserters and be imprisoned than to play in the high-end.
In addition to recruits, young students have also become the target of the Taiwan authorities. On the first day of the high-end start, Tsai Ing-wen broadcasted the vaccination process live, doing enough "large internal publicity" to vigorously sell high-end marketing. College students who cannot rank imported vaccines feel panic when they think of the upcoming school opening and can only be forced to receive Taiwanese-made vaccines.
It is reported that a 25-year-old man admitted after receiving high-end vaccination in Taipei that was really because he couldn't wait for other new crown vaccines, so he had to choose this self-produced vaccine.
People's Daily quoted Taiwanese media analysis as saying that although many young people support the DPP, it does not mean that they support the high-end. After all, the security and effectiveness of the high-end are worrying. A poll released by the "Taiwan Public Opinion Foundation" yesterday showed that compared with May last year, only 47% of the people aged 20-24 supporters were left, and the approval rating was directly "halved". As many as 42% of the people were given a score of "failed" to the DPP authorities' vaccine policies.
"Taiwan Public Opinion Foundation" believes that this is a serious warning to the DPP, because it is likely to be a hidden super unexploded bomb, especially when trustworthy vaccines continue to be short of or new severe epidemics are outbreaks.
