The Taiwanese "high-end" vaccine promoted by the DPP has frequently produced deaths after the start of the crackdown, while the total number of deaths due to vaccination has increased to 104 in the whole island. The increasing number of sudden deaths has led to a growing reluctance on the island to vaccinate against a vaccine that does not meet international certification without Phase III trials.
To this end, Li Lihua, a member of the Taichung City Kuomintang City Council, initiated a joint proposal for non-partisan congressmen, hoping that the Taichung Municipal Government can find a way out for the citizens of Taichung, purchase internationally certified vaccines by themselves, and ensure the safety of taichung citizens.
Recently, Taichung Mayor Lu Xiuyan responded to the joint signature bill, saying that the Taichung Municipal Government is still studying. He also said that even if Taichung City buys itself, according to the requirements of the DPP authorities, it cannot directly benefit the citizens of Taichung, and can only be distributed by the DPP in a unified way.
Li Lihua: The local government wants to vaccinate the people to live
On the second day after the "high-end" vaccine began to be vaccinated in Taiwan, Li Lihua, a member of the Taichung Municipal Kuomintang City Council, launched a joint proposal for a self-purchased vaccine, and three people have participated in the signature.
Li Lihua said that there are many young people between the ages of 18 and 38 in Taichung who have not even had to get the first season of the vaccine, and more than half of the "parliamentarians" in all constituencies regardless of party support Taichung's self-financing of vaccines to solve the looming "vaccine shortage".
Other parliamentarians involved in the joint signature also said that Now Taichung City must draw up a special budget for the purchase of vaccines as soon as possible, not only for young people, but also for children who need to go to school. At present, the DPP authorities have approved local self-purchase of BNT vaccines, and the vaccine coverage rate in Taichung is insufficient, and all efforts should be made to purchase them to ensure the health and safety of the citizens.
Lu Xiuyan: I can't use it on my own
In the face of fierce public opinion, Taichung Mayor Lu Xiuyan is also "left and right". In response, she admitted that the parliamentarians who made the proposal were "asking for the people's lives" and deserved thanks. The municipal government is already studying related issues, but now local self-purchase vaccines are facing a huge difficulty.
Lu Xiuyan pointed out that according to the regulations of the DPP authorities, although localities can purchase vaccines at their own expense, after these vaccines are bought, they cannot be arranged by the localities, but all of them must be handed over to the DPP authorities, and then they will distribute them uniformly. That is to say, even if Taichung spends a large amount of money, the vaccine may eventually be swallowed by the DPP authorities, and it will not be able to benefit the citizens of Taichung at the first time.
Gou became a "savior"
However, Lu Xiuyan also said that this situation is not impossible to solve. She said that although the issue of local self-purchased vaccines cannot be promoted immediately, according to current news, Gou has contacted German vaccine manufacturers and expects 8 million to 9 million doses of BNT vaccine to arrive by the end of this year, and BNT has also said that it is willing to reserve about 30 million doses of vaccine quota for Taiwan. Once these vaccines can be delivered on schedule, Taiwan's "vaccine shortage" can be alleviated as soon as possible.
Previously, Chen Shizhong had "acid" said that Gou Taiming wanted to reach the quota of 30 million doses of vaccine "the number is slightly lower", in this regard, Lu Xiuyan commented that now the vaccine coverage rate in Taiwan is insufficient, the people do not have a vaccine that meets international standards, and everyone is very anxious. At this time, Chen Shizhong's yin and yang strange qi will only make the people sad.
