On June 11, Cui Gang, the second-level inspector of the CDC of the National Health Commission, stated at the State Council’s joint prevention and control mechanism press conference that at present, China’s new crown virus vaccination is mainly carried out for people over 18 years old, and the relevant state departments have approved it. For people aged 3-17, emergency use of the new coronavirus inactivated vaccine can be carried out.
According to the situation of the epidemic, the needs of prevention and control work and the characteristics of relevant populations, we will organize experts to study and formulate specific policies for vaccination for people aged 3-17.
At the same time, we will work with relevant departments to organize and implement the inoculation of children and adolescents.
