7.00 Brazil suspends trials of the Chinese vaccine against covid-19 due to a "serious incident"

Brazil's health regulator has announced that it has suspended clinical trials of a Chinese

after a volunteer suffered "a serious incident."

The Sanitary Surveillance Agency (Anvisa) "decided to interrupt the clinical trial of the

and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), an agency of his own government, for not having announced the results of the drug's vaccine earlier.
