The human testing process of the corona vaccine invented by the Chinese company Synovac Biotech will be known in the next two days, said the secretary of the Department of Health Services. Abdul Mannan.
He told reporters after a meeting in the meeting room of the Ministry of Health in the Secretariat on Monday.
Regarding the vaccine trial, Abdul Mannan said that 9 companies from different countries are working on the vaccine. The government is in constant contact with five of these companies. I have passed the trial of the Chinese company. They have invested heavily in Brazil, Indonesia and Turkey. They will make an official decision by letter within two days to start the trial.
“We are hopeful that they will come forward as soon as possible,” he said. I asked them, when would it start? They said they would give a formal letter, which they would receive tomorrow or the day after. ICCDDR, B is in direct contact with them.
The secretary said that in addition to this, Indian companies have also made some proposals. A Russian company was contacted. They want to use our pharmaceutical companies. They have spoken of large companies such as Incepta, Popular, Beximco, Health Care, Squares. Companies from Belgium and France have also contacted us. We have allocated enough money to buy the vaccine if necessary. We have allocated £ 100 million to a project abroad. Also, some more money has been saved.
“We want to bring two and a half million to three million vaccines first,” he said. Those on the front line will have priority to receive a free vaccine. Journalists are also working outside the home, they too will gain importance. I see how much can be made available to the common man. However, we will give priority to the elderly and those suffering from various physical complications.
