"The father of China's new crown vaccine" Yang Xiaoming
Although four years have passed since the outbreak of the new crown epidemic, the experience of that time seems to be just yesterday, in 2020, an unknown virus broke out in Wuhan and quickly swept the world.
In order to control the development of the new crown epidemic as soon as possible, almost all medical teams in the mainland are treating infected patients day and night, so that vaccine research has become a big problem.
This research can be said to be a tight time and heavy task, because the early research of the vaccine can keep more people away from the persecution of the new coronavirus, but in the face of a new virus, it is not easy to quickly develop a vaccine, so Yang Xiaoming and the team began to work overtime to conduct research.
It took only 98 days to successfully develop an inactivated vaccine against the new coronavirus, and it took only more than 330 days until the vaccine was approved for marketing, and more than 100 countries and regions have been vaccinated with this vaccine, making great contributions to the prevention and control of the epidemic.
Many netizens expressed their gratitude to him, but some netizens wondered, is there really no problem with the vaccine developed in such a short period of time? Because according to past experience, it will take at least a few years to study a vaccine.
In order to dispel people's concerns, Yang Xiaoming directly became the first batch of vaccine recipients, according to him, there were no sequelae after vaccination, it was nothing more than a little pain when injecting.
And in order to study the effectiveness of the vaccine, he took himself as the test object, and after vaccination, he successively took more than 60 blood samples, just to study when the vaccine produces antibodies and how strong or weak the antibodies are.
This research has not only made great contributions to the country, but also brought a lot of honor to Yang Xiaoming, for which he won the "China Immunology Outstanding Scholar Award", and his name of China Biology has also gained a lot of benefits, making a profit of 90 billion in just one year, and it is also in the most severe year of the epidemic.
But no one expected that he, who was praised by countless people and known as the "father of China's new crown vaccine", would be investigated for suspected violations of discipline and law, and even the position of a deputy to the National People's Congress was dismissed.
The impact of Yang Xiaoming's investigation
This incident will not only affect Yang Xiaoming alone, but also the status of the new crown vaccine in people's minds, and even affect the development of China's pharmaceutical industry, which is undoubtedly a major blow to those who trust Yang Xiaoming and his products, and may also make them doubt scientific research.
So far, there are no reports showing that Yang Xiaoming was investigated because of vaccine research issues, but Yang Xiaoming has entered the public's field of vision because of his contribution to the new crown vaccine and has become the object of everyone's praise.
At this time, people's doubts about the new crown vaccine have emerged again, and many people have expressed their opinions on the Internet, some people feel that their health has obviously deteriorated, and there are diseases that they did not have before, and they feel that after getting sick, the speed of recovery has slowed down, and there have been so-called "side effects".
For the statements of netizens, we must look at it rationally, after all, there is no report pointing out that there are side effects of the new crown vaccine, and we are not professional medical personnel, so we still have to believe in professional reports and official survey results, and do not be led astray by others.
However, it is undeniable that the occurrence of this incident will have a great impact on the research and use of other vaccines in the future, because as the discussion among the masses becomes higher and higher, the doubts about the vaccine will become louder and louder, which is likely to lead to doubts about the vaccines that will be studied in the future.
It is also hoped that the relevant departments can investigate Yang Xiaoming's problems as soon as possible, and make the results of the investigation public, no matter what the results of the investigation are, the people have the right to know, and the results can be announced in a timely manner, and the crisis of trust of the people can be resolved as soon as possible. Having said that, is it just because of the research on the new crown vaccine that Yang Xiaoming can get such high praise from people?
Yang Xiaoming's life experience
Yang Xiaoming's achievements are not only in the development of the new crown vaccine, he has also developed an inactivated poliovirus vaccine, and China's first acellular pertussis vaccine, not only that, but he also created his own hexavalent rotavirus vaccine, which has been clinically studied.
Yang Xiaoming is a typical child of other people's families, his academic performance is very good, he never has to worry about his parents, he successfully entered Lanzhou University with his own strength when he was admitted to university, studying clinical medicine, since then Yang Xiaoming started his medical career, and after graduation entered the Institute of Biopharmaceuticals.
His passion for medicine and hard work led him to make a name for himself in the industry, and the first diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis vaccine he led was a great success, which also led him to determine the future development route, that is, to conduct vaccine research.
In order to better carry out this work, Yang Xiaoming went to the United States for further study, and after completing his studies, Yang Xiaoming did not forget his original intention, and returned to China to join China Biotechnology Co., Ltd., which is what we call China Biotech, which was still in a state of loss at that time.
Perhaps because smart people have a strong learning ability, Yang Xiaoming is not inferior in business, in just a few years, China Biologics has entered a profitable state, and has become a well-known vaccine production company in China in one fell swoop, and the first inactivated vaccine against the new coronavirus came from this company.
So far, Yang Xiaoming has won more than 20 invention patents, as well as more than a dozen honorary awards, and has served as a director and member of many departments, it can be said that Yang Xiaoming has made great contributions to the medical cause in the mainland.
Regarding the investigation of Yang Xiaoming, everyone should look at it rationally, do not spread and spread rumors before the official investigation results are released, and also hope that the relevant departments will investigate the truth of the matter as soon as possible and publish the results of the investigation to answer the doubts of the masses.
