In terms of the development of the new crown vaccine, China has now progressed to which stage?

In terms of the development of the new crown vaccine, China has now progressed to the phase III clinical stage.

With emergency vaccinations already in place in many countries, many people are very concerned about when the vaccine will be available. Indeed, having a vaccine is tantamount to having a piece of mind. But most of the countries abroad that have chosen to take emergency vaccinations are taking the risk of doing so because of the severity of the epidemic. These vaccines have not gone through phase III clinical trials, and it is unknown whether they are effective or safe. Vaccines are life-threatening drugs that must go through phase III before they can be approved and marketed to the public.

Of the six vaccines filed with the World Health Organization, half are from China. This means that the research and development of our vaccines is actually one step ahead. In this case, the public for the vaccine research and development or to wait for the good news, after all, China's vaccine has entered the third phase of the clinical, according to the formal procedures, will also soon pass the third phase of the clinical after the safety of the market. At present, our country's epidemic prevention and control is strong, the epidemic control is relatively good, so there is no need for our country to take the risk of emergency vaccination.

The vaccine is not to figure that fast is good, as a pandemic, the virus whether there is mutation, whether the number of variables should be the vaccine should be taken into account factors. Therefore, the vaccine can only guarantee the effectiveness and safety of the vaccine by conducting phase III clinics. Emergency vaccination is not reliable, emergency vaccination is only a matter of rights and interests, the public do not have to be anxious because most of the foreign countries with serious epidemics have already begun vaccination.

Sources close to the new vaccine said it would be approved for production in the second half of the year, and that the vaccine would be available worldwide by next year at the latest. So it's just a matter of waiting a few more months, or until next year, to get a safe and effective vaccine that's been through Phase III and can be safely administered. The fact that the new vaccine has entered Phase III and is nearing the end of Phase III is undoubtedly great news, as the end of the vaccine depends on the vaccine and the end of herd immunization. It has to be said that the epidemic is about to end because the vaccine is about to be introduced.
