At the International Health Industry Fair held in Hainan Province, southern China, participants inhale fumes from plastic cups.
[(Isn’t it like a cup of milk tea?) That’s right. I think you can drink milk tea with unlimited refills.] It is
none other than an inhaled COVID-19 vaccine.
An inhaled COVID-19 vaccine jointly developed by the Military Medical Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Military Sciences and pharmaceutical company Cansinobio was unveiled for the first time.
This vaccine is an aerosol type of injectable vaccine using a nebulizer, and the company said that it has the same effect as receiving a single injection with only one fifth of the dose of the injectable vaccine.
In addition, he explained that if the vaccine is additionally inhaled after receiving the injection vaccine, strong neutralizing antibodies that neutralize the COVID-19 virus are formed.
[Chinese Cancinobio Vice Manager: This vaccine is effective after 14 days after being vaccinated once, so it can be a good choice if you need to leave the country urgently or need to quickly build an immune barrier in the area.] You
do not need to directly inject
.
He emphasized that it has fewer side effects such as local reactions and is suitable for people who are reluctant to inject.
[Field experience: There is little objection]
This inhaled vaccine, which China announced as the world's first, is currently undergoing a secondary clinical trial and is expected to apply for emergency use approval soon.
China, which is adhering to the so-called 'zero corona' policy that does not admit even a single corona patient instead of 'with Corona', that is, a gradual recovery of daily life, is expected to approve the first Chinese-made Corona 19 treatment next month.
