Anvisa (National Health Surveillance Agency) said on Monday (14) that the China uses “non-transparent” criteria to get emergency approval for your vaccine COVID-19, CoronaVac, in the final phase of testing in Brazil. “The Chinese criteria for granting authorization for emergency use in that country are not transparent,” the agency statement said.

CoronaVac, produced by the private Chinese laboratory Sinovac in association with the Butantan Institute of São Paulo, has been the target of attempts to discredit by President Jair Bolsonaro, who sees it as a tool of both the governor of São Paulo, João Doria (PSDB) and the Chinese communist regime.

Doria announced on Monday that the Butantan Institute changed plans and will submit to Anvisa a final authorization request for the Chinese immunizer in Brazil, where the new coronavirus has already infected almost 7 million people. The request will be delivered on the 23rd.

Doria announced last week that it expects to begin applying the vaccine on January 25 in the state of 46.2 million people. Anvisa, which sent a group of technicians to inspect the Sinovac unit in Beijing earlier this month, warned of “the possible influence of geopolitical issues that can permeate national discussions” and cited as an example the risk that countries run. ” They put national interests first when guaranteeing access to a vaccine for their own citizens ”.

The Brazilian government claims to have guaranteed access to 300 million doses of vaccines, mainly the one developed by the University of Oxford in alliance with the AstraZeneca group and Fiocruz, and the international initiative Covax Facility. It is also negotiating 70 million doses with Pfizer.
