First Financial Reporter: The mainland has carried out COVID-19 vaccination work for people aged 3 to 11, but some parents are still worried about the occurrence of adverse reactions. How effective is the vaccine for children? Which type of children should not be vaccinated?

Wang Huaqing: Thank you for your question. Currently, the vaccines we use urgently among children aged 3 to 11 include the Beijing Institute of Biotechnology, the Wuhan Institute of Technology, and the inactivated COVID-19 vaccine from Beijing Sinovac. According to the results of previous clinical trials, children with these three vaccines have high positive conversion rates of neutralizing antibodies after vaccination, and the antibody levels are comparable to those of adults, and some are even higher than those of adults. Regarding the adverse reactions that everyone is worried about, the number of vaccinations among children aged 3 to 11 has exceeded 140 million. Judging from the results of our monitoring, the adverse reactions were generally stable and there were no abnormalities. Among the adverse reactions that occur, like other people, they mainly include fever and local reactions. Most of these are general reactions.

As for which children cannot be vaccinated with the new crown vaccine , we have already clearly stipulated in the early technical guidelines for the new crown vaccine, and everyone has operated and implemented it in accordance with this regulation. There are mainly the following situations: The first situation is that if you are vaccinated with the new crown vaccine or are allergic to the ingredients in the new crown vaccine , you cannot be vaccinated. The second situation is that the vaccines with the same technical route have been vaccinated before and have acute allergies, which is also one of the cases where people cannot get vaccinated. The third situation is that no matter what kind of vaccine you received in the past, as long as you have severe allergic reactions, it is also a contraindicated object. The fourth situation is whether the patient has a serious neurological disease that is completely controlled, including transverse myelitis and demyelinating lesions. In the fifth situation, if he is in the fever period, or has an acute disease or a chronic disease acute attack, or if the severe chronic disease is not effectively controlled, these situations are also incapable of being vaccinated. Of course, there are some other specific regulations, whether it is a recipient or a vaccinated doctor, it shall be implemented in accordance with other specific regulations in the instructions, grasp the contraindications and the safety of vaccination. Thanks.
