After a long wait and painstaking phase III clinical trials, Sinovac's vaccine has finally been recognized by the WHO. Recently, the WHO officially announced that the Sinovac vaccine has been included in the emergency vaccine list, which means that two vaccines made in China have entered the list.
The relevant person in charge of the WHO said that the world urgently needs a variety of new crown vaccine , which has solved the problem of uneven access to global vaccine. And added that vaccine manufacturers who enter the list will be urged to contribute their expertise and data to contribute to the control of the global new crown epidemic. This remark also coincides with my country's theme of controlling the new crown.
The reason why WHO allows Sinovac vaccines to enter this list is not only trusting the quality of Sinovac vaccines, but also its characteristics are very consistent with the global vaccine distribution strategy. As an inactivated vaccine , the storage temperature of Sinovac vaccine can be stored between 2-8 degrees Celsius , which is a great advantage over other vaccines.
For example, the Moderna vaccine must be stored in an environment of minus 20 degrees Celsius, and the Pfizer vaccine needs an environment of minus 70 degrees Celsius, which is difficult for some development and less developed countries . At the same time, the price of Kexing vaccine is relatively advantageous. The current price of one dose is about 15 US dollars, which is lower than the price of Modena's 30 US dollars. When facing the developing country market, it is very cost-effective. Advantage.
The most important thing is that the approval of Sinovac vaccines will allow Chinese vaccines to take the initiative in the international market.Recently, some countries are engaged in vaccine discrimination, resisting injection of China Sinovac vaccine into the country, the reason is very simple, because the vaccine you injected has not been certified by WHO, for example, the full injection of Sinovac vaccine Hungary cannot get access to Austria because the vaccines are different.
Now that both Sinovac and Sinopharm vaccines have entered the WHO list, no country in the world has any reason to block Chinese vaccines. This has greatly improved China's right to speak in the fight against the epidemic. effect.
However, there are still some countries whose hearts against China will not die, and still retain the Cold War mentality . UK Prime Minister Johnson called for the establishment of a " vaccine passport " system. The standard is set by the 7 group . Only by injecting a vaccine approved by western countries can you obtain the right of barrier-free passage in the world. This behavior of Boris Johnson is obviously to show his leadership after Brexit. Unfortunately, this proposal of Johnson was not even passed within the G7.
At present, among the G7 group countries, the UK has the highest vaccination rate of , followed by Canada , American , France, German and Italian , the vaccination rate is similar, but unfortunately Japan vaccination rate is only about 10% , it is impossible for Japan to agree to Johnson's proposal.
At the same time, Johnson's proposal was thrown a pot of cold water. The WHO made it clear that because the vaccination rates of different countries are different, this kind of proposal is a form of discrimination for developing countries with low vaccination rates.At this time, since China's Kexing and Sinopharm vaccines have been recognized by the WHO, they will have the opportunity to enter more markets in developing countries, which is very important for China's friendliness in these countries and China's development of relations with these countries. , are of great benefit.
This epidemic has affected the whole world. Now that there is a vaccine, this should be the gospel of all mankind. In the face of vaccines, there are still three, six, nine, etc. It is meaningless to argue about who is higher and who is lower.
As long as the vaccine is effective and can contain the new coronavirus, then this vaccine should become the common achievement of all mankind. At this time, if cannot share the same hatred against , then it can only be said that some people's brains are either faulty, or the heart of imperialism is not dead!
