On January 27, the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council held a regular press conference. Spokesperson Zhu Fenglian said that the new crown pneumonia vaccination work is currently being implemented in an orderly manner in various parts of the mainland, and proper arrangements will be made for eligible citizens, including Taiwan compatriots.
Many Taiwan compatriots interviewed said that they have confidence in the mainland vaccine and are willing to vaccinate as soon as possible.
A reporter asked a question. According to reports, the Beijing Taiwan Association has begun to organize Taiwanese businessmen in Beijing to vaccinate Taiwanese compatriots from the new crown. Could the spokesperson tell us about the current status of the vaccinations for Taiwanese compatriots in mainland China?
In response to the continuous vaccination of Taiwan compatriots in mainland China, the DPP authorities and the green camp media have not only frequently attacked the safety of vaccines in mainland China, but also claimed that Taiwanese businessmen are being vaccinated "semi-forced." What is the spokesperson’s response to this.
Zhu Fenglian said that at present, the new crown pneumonia vaccination work in various parts of the mainland is being implemented in an orderly manner, and proper arrangements will be made for eligible people, including mainland Taiwan compatriots.
Many Taiwan compatriots interviewed said that they have confidence in the mainland vaccine and are willing to vaccinate as soon as possible.
She pointed out that Beijing started the vaccination of key populations of the new crown pneumonia vaccine on January 1, and has completed the first dose of vaccination for more than 1.9 million key populations.
The vaccinations of eligible Taiwanese businessmen and Taiwanese compatriots who are voluntarily vaccinated in Beijing will be arranged by the Beijing Taiwan Affairs Office in coordination with the Beijing Association of Taiwanese Enterprises.
Zhu Fenglian emphasized that the mainland vaccination is carried out entirely on the premise of voluntary application and informed consent.
Some politicians and some media on the island contend that the so-called "semi-forced" vaccination is completely malicious.
Zhu Fenglian said that vaccination requires an informed consent form for vaccination, and every Taiwan compatriot who is vaccinated will fill out an informed consent form to express his wishes.
She continued that since the mainland officially launched the new crown vaccination work for key populations on December 15 last year, as of January 20, a total of 15 million vaccinations have been carried out.
More than 40 countries have put forward the need to import the mainland new crown vaccine, and some have approved the use of the mainland new crown vaccine.
These have fully proved the good safety of the mainland's new crown vaccine.
The mainland’s vaccination work is progressing in an orderly manner and is free of charge for all citizens, so that eligible people can achieve "every need", and gradually build an immune barrier to stop the spread of the new coronavirus.
Zhu Fenglian said that facts speak louder than words.
The DPP authorities and some media on the island slandered and discredited the mainland's vaccination, with despicable intentions.
