    China CDC Expert: Building Immune Barrier in China May Require 1 Billion Vaccine Doses
  • China Accelerates COVID-19 Vaccination for Key Groups and Regions, with 164.471 Million Doses Administered Nationwide

    China is advancing COVID-19 vaccinations in key regions, populations, and cities on a priority basis, ensuring coverage for all eligible individuals in a phased manner. As of 24:00 on April 10, a cumulative 164.471 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines have been administered nationwide. In an interview with Face to Face regarding epidemic prevention and vaccination progress, Wang Huaqing, Chief Expert in Immunization Program at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention (China CDC), discussed the unprecedented scale of China’s vaccination drive.

    First National-Level Daily Vaccination Reporting System in Global Vaccination History

    Since March 24, China has implemented a daily reporting system for COVID-19 vaccination data, with the National Health Commission (NHC) publishing the total number of doses administered daily on its official website. This marks the first time in global vaccination history that a national-level daily reporting mechanism of such large scale has been established.

    Key Excerpts from the Interview:

    • Phased Prioritization: Vaccinations are focused on high-risk groups (e.g., medical workers, border personnel, seniors), densely populated cities, and regions with higher transmission risks, following a "should-be-vaccinated, must-be-vaccinated" principle.
    • Data Transparency: The daily updates aim to keep the public informed and build confidence, reflecting China’s commitment to science-based epidemic control.
    • Global Context: Wang emphasized that while China’s vaccination pace is accelerating, international cooperation on vaccine distribution remains crucial to ending the global pandemic.
