China continues to expand vaccinations without announcing the efficacy or safety of domestic vaccines.
There is a forecast that 50 million people will be vaccinated by New Year’s Day next year.

The Chinese government has also announced that the vaccine will be in full swing soon.
To curb the spread of the winter in advance, they will try to immunize them with a vaccine.
First of all, people at risk of infection, such as medical staff, quarantine personnel, and cold food workers, are eligible for vaccination.
The plan is to expand in the order of the underlying disease, the elderly, and the general public.

However, neither the Chinese government nor pharmaceutical companies have officially announced the efficacy and safety of their own vaccines.
It is reiterated that more than 1 million people have been vaccinated and there have been no serious side effects.
The Chinese government is currently reviewing the phase 3 clinical trial, and it will be announced when the time comes.

In this situation, Sichuan Province has started vaccinating 2 million people in high-risk groups.
There are also observations that 50 million people will be vaccinated across China before the Lunar New Year in February next year.
It is about 3.6% of China’s population, and it means that all people at high risk of infection, including police officers and firefighters, will be vaccinated.
Tangyuan, a small and medium-sized city on the border with Russia, first announced that it would also accept applications for vaccinations from the public.
It seems that China’s strategy is to increase the efficacy and safety while expanding the vaccination as soon as possible.
