China, total 4.5 million vaccinations before approval… Including the initial 1.5 million
China “Ensure safety by mass vaccination before official approval”
China “Complete training to prepare for vaccination…it is possible to secure quantity”
China started vaccination on the 15th of last month in the name of blocking COVID-19 in winter.
It is 15 days before we received conditional approval from authorities at the end of last year.
About 3 million people were vaccinated, with an average of 200,000 people a day in about 10 regions including Guangdong and Sichuan.
When we add up to 1.5 million people who were hit in the early stages of vaccine development, 4.5 million people got the vaccine.
The Chinese authorities explained that the safety was proven through this process.

Vaccination will be faster in China, which aims to vaccinate 50 million people by New Year’s Day next month.
Considering the fact that antibodies must be given twice every three weeks, the required number of vaccinations is 100 million.
It is calculated that this month alone, there should be about 3 million people per day.
The Chinese government has completed vaccination training and is saying that production will be sufficient.

State-owned pharmaceutical company Sinopharm said it would increase its annual vaccine production capacity to 1 billion doses within this year.
It will increase more than 8 times within a year, but when mass production begins, the price of the vaccine is expected to drop significantly.
The Chinese government has said it will vaccinate its citizens for free.

With the introduction of a free vaccination policy following the initial approval of the vaccine, China’s quarantine is expected to gain momentum.
However, first of all, the high-risk group is scheduled to be vaccinated, so the full effect is expected to come out only in the second half of the year.
