Coronavirus: China passes 500 million doses in rush to meet vaccination target

Published: 7:00pm, 24 May, 2021

• Some provinces have a cut-off of June 9 to have the first jab to allow enough time to deliver second shots by the end of the month
• In China, up to 85 per cent of the population would need to be vaccinated for herd immunity, says CDC researcher who believes it?s possible this year

China has not released data on the proportion of the population that is fully inoculated.

-------------------------------------------------

The China made vaccine is called Sinovac and it needs 2 doses. link

--------------------------------------------------

Fuzzy math:

Population of China is about 1.4 billion people.

500 million doses is 250 million people fully vaccinated.

That is about 1.8% of the population fully vaccinated.

I have seen no data about the effectiveness of Sinovac against the 1.617 series of variants.

Here is a recent news item about the vaccine. link

After an investigation in Liwan District found a suspected case of new coronary pneumonia nucleic acid positive person,

citizens who had been to places before the onset of the case responded to the government's call to conduct nucleic acid testing at 7 key regional nucleic acid test points set up in Liwan District. Among them, the nucleic acid testing point of Chengguanghui Plaza is located on Kangwang Middle Road, which is crowded with people, and has concentrated more testing needs. Due to the recent sunny and hot weather in Guangzhou, the highest temperature has reached 35?C or more. Although the inspection sites have already set up sunshade tents, some people still feel unwell while waiting, and the medical staff wearing protective clothing are even hotter and sweaty.
The party branch of Guangzhou Duoxin Electric Co., Ltd. is a non-public enterprise party organization under the jurisdiction of Chongkou Street, Liwan District. Although it has only been established for more than half a year, the three party members of the branch are all the backbone of the company?s business and are leading the company?s employees to participate.

In the evening of the same day, the company mobilized 6 mobile air conditioners overnight and transported them to the inspection point of Chengguanghui Square for installation in the morning of the next day. When the sun was shining at noon, the medical staff and the masses at the inspection point could already enjoy the chills sent by the air conditioner.
Where the masses need it, that is where the party organization should play a role. It is understood that Chongkou Subdistrict has always regarded service epidemic prevention and control as an important content in the process of promoting the "double synchronization" of party building in non-public enterprises. In activities such as community epidemic prevention and control and condolences to frontline epidemic prevention personnel, non-public companies can be seen. The figure of enterprise party organizations and party members, they used practical actions to fulfill their original mission and drew the "concentric circles" of the party groups.
