Chen Wenqian: Taiwan still lacks 20 million vaccines by the end of the year, so the vaccine policy is either weak or stupid

According to Taiwan's Zhongshi News Network, the 2.5 million doses of Modena vaccine donated by the United States to Taiwan will arrive in Taiwan today, and with the addition of other purchased vaccines, the vaccine available for scheduling in Taiwan has temporarily reached 3.15 million doses, and the pressure on the vaccine seems to be slightly relieved. However, Veteran media person Chen Wenxi still warned that many people do not understand that the global autumn and winter may be counterattacked by the epidemic of mutant viruses, and Taiwan is still in short supply of vaccines by the end of the year, she estimated that at the end of the year, there are about 20 million doses of vaccines that can be obtained, only 10 million people can be fully vaccinated, and 20 million doses are short.

Kuomintang Chairman Jiang Qichen said yesterday that Taiwan has received more vaccines than bought, and Tsai Ing-wen is not ashamed? "The bailout budget has been increased from NT$210 billion to 840 billion yuan, how many vaccines can be bought with these funds?" If the DPP authorities had made so-called "advance arrangements" last year and there had been no factional disturbances within the DPP, would they have asked Yongling and TSMC to come forward to buy vaccines today?

Jiang Qichen said: Buying vaccines quickly is the focus, and Taiwan's insufficient vaccines have produced an exclusion effect, and only then has the problem of scrambling and calculating who will fight first.

In addition, the report also pointed out that vaccination is the focus of the fight against the epidemic around the world, and nearly half of the people in the United States are currently vaccinated with at least 1 dose of vaccine, and 200 million doses of Modena vaccine have been purchased again a few days ago, and the vaccination rate reached 70% in early July. In contrast, in Taiwan, the DPP authorities shouted that 10 million doses of vaccines arrived at the end of August, but the main source was domestic vaccines that had not yet obtained international certification, hoping to achieve a vaccine coverage rate of 60% by the end of October.

Chen Wenxi pointed out that the international vaccines procured by the DPP authorities, including the vaccines distributed by COVAX, totaled nearly 20 million doses, which is only enough for 10 million people to administer, and it was Tsai Ing-wen who announced this decision, perhaps because of inability to obtain vaccines, or because of money but stupidity.

Chen Wenxi estimated, plus those who have been vaccinated before, by the end of the year, only 11 million people in Taiwan can get 2 doses of vaccine, Tsai Ing-wen may have forgotten that Taiwan's population is 24 million, deducting children under 5 years old, the number of vaccines needed to be pre-ordered is about 45 million, that is, at least before the end of the year, the vaccine is still 20 million short, let alone a reinforced needle, or a mutant virus vaccine.
