Bangladesh is not paying the Chinese company Synovac for the corona vaccine test. As a result, the company’s coronavirus ticker test fell into greater uncertainty. Abdul Mannan, secretary of the health services department of the Ministry of Health, said they had not decided to do anything with the government co-financing.
When asked about the decision on the Sinovac trial, Abdul Mannan told the Bengali Tribune: “You cannot give money from the state to anyone if they want to.” We have no such response to Sinovac’s letter. If they come as their own, then 6. But Sinovac said they would come even a little late.
“We have not yet decided to do anything co-financing money from our government,” he said. When asked whether or not a decision has yet been made, he said: “It is a decision not to make a decision.”
“We are thinking of someone else,” he said. We are running in different places, let’s see them. But they also said লেও even if we don’t get money from Bangladesh, we will do the job (test) even if it’s a bit late, we won’t come back. ‘
Meanwhile, when Health Minister Zahid Malek was called on his mobile phone more than once to discuss the matter, he said via SMS that he was unable to speak at the time. When asked if Bangladesh had decided not to give Sinova money, he sent a reply SMS, but did not reply.
On September 22, the Chinese Sinovac wrote a letter to the Minister of Health, Zahid Malek, informing him of her financial crisis. There, the company reported on its ‘economic crisis’ and asked the government of Bangladesh to ‘co-finance’ the corona vaccine trial. The reason, they said in the letter, was that they were late in obtaining approval from Bangladesh.
Earlier, Health Minister Zahid Malek told the Bengali Tribune that it was too late to apply for approval after “checking and sorting.”
On July 19, the Bangladesh Medical Research Council (BMRC) approved CoronaVac vaccine from Chinese company Synovac for a clinical trial. Health Secretary Abdul Mannan said on September 21 that Sinovac had been allowed a trial. The National Technical Advisory Committee on Covid-19 has also discussed a vaccine trial in the country more than once.
In a letter addressed to Health Minister Zahid Malek on September 22, Sinovac said: “The funds we had were distributed to other countries for trial at this time. Therefore, we do not have the necessary funds to conduct a trial in Bangladesh We plan to raise part of this fund in late October or early November, however we need a joint venture to fund the trial in Bangladesh.
“Our plan was to start the test in early August,” Sinovac said. But due to the delay in getting approval, we pay the judgment in another country. At the same time, we weren’t sure if we would get final approval. We have applied for funding from the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations-SEP in good faith to conduct trials in Bangladesh and in consultation with an external agency. Despite our hopes of funding from outside agencies, Sepi told us two weeks ago that they couldn’t help.
