Work together to promote international cooperation on vaccines and build a global defense line against the epidemic

In 2021, the new crown pneumonia epidemic continues to spread around the world, and countries are facing the dual challenges of public health crisis and economic recession. This year, China has always demonstrated its responsibility as a responsible major country, coordinating epidemic prevention and control and economic development, while striving to safeguard regional and global public health security... This year, China's fight against the epidemic has delivered extraordinary answers.

This year, the speed of COVID-19 vaccination in China has continued to increase. Up to now, the number of people who have completed the full vaccination in the country has exceeded 1.2 billion, and the number of COVID-19 vaccinations and the number of people covered rank first in the world, and the enthusiasm of the people to vaccinate is very high. "To build an immune barrier for the whole society, it takes the joint efforts of each of us, so when our school organized us to vaccinate, I signed up for vaccination at the first time."

At the same time that the COVID-19 vaccine is being given free of charge throughout the country. Operation Chunmiao is also vaccinating Chinese citizens overseas against COVID-19 from the motherland. "Thank you very much to the motherland for providing us with vaccines and protecting us. Now there is only excitement and gratitude in my heart! A thousand words turned into one sentence: 'Thank the motherland, thank the party!' ’”

China attaches great importance not only to the safety and health of Chinese citizens, but also to the safety and health of foreign citizens in China. At present, many places in China have included foreign citizens in China into the overall epidemic prevention and control system and the working mechanism of grass-roots street communities to ensure their reasonable needs.

China's anti-epidemic "acceleration" is not a day's work. This year, China's new crown vaccine and new crown therapeutic drugs have made significant progress: domestic new crown inactivated vaccines have been included in the World Health Organization's emergency use list; domestic second-generation recombinant protein new crown vaccines have been approved for emergency use in the United Arab Emirates; domestic mRNA new crown vaccines that can be stored for a long time under 2-4 degrees Celsius have also been conducted in phase III clinical trials overseas; the first domestic new crown virus neutralizing antibody combination treatment drugs have been approved...

On December 8, the State Drug Administration urgently approved the registration application for the combination treatment of nuclear antibodies in the new coronavirus, the registration application of ambavir monoclonal antibody injection and romismoswamunb injection, which is the first approved new coronavirus comprehensive antibody combination treatment drug with independent intellectual property rights in China...

One result after another has given us more "weapons" and "confidence" to fight the epidemic. China has also always demonstrated its responsibility as a responsible major country and has always stood firmly in the first phalanx of international cooperation on vaccines. China has committed to vaccines as a global public good. From vaccine assistance to developing countries in dire need, to donating vaccines to peacekeepers from all over the world, to providing vaccines to athletes preparing to participate in the Olympic Games... China is constantly fulfilling its commitments to the world with practical actions.

From Asia to Europe, from Africa to Latin America, the Chinese vaccine that carries hope has a starry journey through the night, crossing the mountains and seas, bringing hope and courage to the people there. Zimbabwean President Mnangagwa said China's COVID-19 vaccine was like "light at the end of the tunnel." "Dear Chinese friends, at this moment, the people of Zimbabwe are struggling to fight the epidemic, and This batch of COVID-19 vaccines in China has brought hope to the people of Zimbabwe and let us see the light at the end of the tunnel. We are very grateful for this life-saving act of kindness. ”

Singh, director of the Nepal Health Service Bureau, said that the arrival of China's new crown vaccine is comparable to "sending charcoal in the snow", "I express my heartfelt thanks to China, thank the Chinese government and Chinese friends for sending charcoal to Nepal again and again." I believe that this batch of Chinese vaccines can help us tide over the difficulties. ”

Egyptian Minister of Health and Population Khali said that China's COVID-19 vaccine is like a "precious gift", highlighting the concept of international solidarity against the epidemic. "On behalf of the Egyptian government and people, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to the Chinese government and people, and express my high appreciation for China's support and assistance to Egypt at a critical moment in the fight against the epidemic. This precious gift demonstrates the humanitarian spirit and international solidarity and anti-epidemic concept that China has always upheld, and the two heads of state have guided the way forward for the two sides to further deepen anti-epidemic cooperation. ”

According to data from the China Agency for International Development Cooperation, China has so far provided 2 billion doses of vaccines to more than 120 countries and international organizations, ranking first in the world and supporting the "lifeline" of the global fight against the epidemic. In addition, China has also carried out technology transfer and cooperative production with a number of developing countries to rapidly promote large-scale production of vaccines. Up to now, Chinese vaccine companies have launched cooperative production in the United Arab Emirates, Indonesia, Malaysia, Egypt, Brazil, Turkey, Pakistan, Mexico and other countries. "We are the waves of the same sea". Because in the face of the epidemic, no one can be alone. In the global fight against the epidemic, China has always been in the same boat with all countries in the world.
