"New Coronary Pneumonia Vaccine Implementation Plan" receives 700 million doses of three vaccines

WHO warns that the emergence of vaccines does not mean the elimination of the new crown

　　On December 4, local time, WHO held a routine press conference for new coronary pneumonia.

Director General Tan Desai pointed out that currently 189 countries and economies have joined the "New Coronary Pneumonia Vaccine Implementation Plan". The plan has received a total of 700 million doses of three new coronavirus vaccines. By 2021, at least 2 billion doses of safe and effective vaccines worldwide will be ensured. Available.

　　Chief scientist Sumia Swaminathan stated that he hopes that the "New Coronary Pneumonia Vaccine Implementation Plan" can distribute 500 million doses of vaccine in the first quarter of 2021. It is expected that the vaccine production and distribution speed will increase in the second quarter of 2021.

　　On the same day, Michael Ryan, the head of the health emergency project, warned that the emergence of a vaccine does not mean that the new crown can be eliminated.

Ruian emphasized that vaccines will be a powerful tool, but only relying on vaccines will not be able to respond to the epidemic. They should be included in existing public health strategies, continue to manage personal behavior and hygiene, and realize that there will not be enough vaccine supplies in early 2021. All people are vaccinated.

U.S. single-day confirmed cases and single-day deaths both set records

The CDC for the first time urged people to wear masks indoors

　　On the 3rd local time, there were 217,664 new confirmed cases and 2,879 new deaths in the United States. Both figures set the highest record since the outbreak.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on the 4th announced new epidemic prevention guidelines, which include recommending that people should "use masks universally" except at home. This is the first time that the agency advocates the use of masks indoors.

　　The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warned that as the weather gets colder and the holiday season approaches, people are more indoor activities. The United States has entered a "high-level transmission stage." Continuous and correct use of masks is crucial.

The agency pointed out that because emergency personnel need N95 masks, but these masks are still in short supply, people should wear "valveless, multilayer cloth masks or non-medical disposable masks."

　　On the other hand, the Director of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Hahn said that after reviewing the vaccine developed by Pfizer on December 10, the agency will take prompt action and expect to vaccinate 20 million Americans in 2020.

Hahn said that once the vaccine is approved, "I will be the first to line up for injection, and I will also encourage my family to get this vaccine."
