Beijing, Ta. 8 July 2020, Wednesday

China, which has spread the corona virus worldwide, is currently at the forefront of the race to develop the Covid-19 vaccine. Chinese pharma company Synovac Biotech is the second company in China and the third in the world to complete the final stage of the trial by the end of this month. Corona virus all over the world

While the pace of vaccine development has been slow, China has turned its military, government and private companies into drug manufacturers.

The corona virus currently infects more than 1.5 billion people worldwide and more than half a million people worldwide have lost their lives to the corona. The US wants to win the vaccine race with private companies in several big countries but China is posing a big challenge.

Large-scale trials of the vaccine cannot take place in the world because the corona virus infection is spreading so fast in the world. In this regard, China wants to improve its image in the world with vaccines and prove that its vaccines are safe and effective. The trial of the two vaccines, which are being tested by the military and the government, will first be on military personnel. The People's Liberation Army's Medical Research Unit is leading the entire project.

The Chinese military's medical research unit is developing the Covid-19 vaccine in collaboration with private drug company Cancino. There are currently 19 human trials of the vaccine worldwide, of which 8 are in China alone. China's military is developing the eighth drug in partnership with private pharmaceutical companies Cancino and Synovac, and is at the forefront of the race for the corona vaccine in the world. The Chinese government allowed Cinopharm, a pharmaceutical company, to conduct a phase-1 and phase-2 trial of Synovac simultaneously to speed up vaccine production.

China's vaccine manufacturing method is to make inactive vaccines. While the western countries are doing the opposite. Of the 8 vaccine candidates in China, four vaccines that reached human trials are inactive. Dr. famous for making vaccines all over the world. The inactive vaccine system is standardized and robust, according to Paul Offitt. If I am asked, I will choose only one candidate from China.

Chen Wei, head of the Chinese military's medical research unit and a scientist who developed the vaccine in China, was the first to take a shot at a vaccine designed for the corona virus. His team developed the vaccine for SARS many years ago.
