“For vaccines where we are moving very quickly, the number of cases needed for the middle stage of phase 3 clinical trials has already been obtained,” Zheng said. Data from the app, conducted in high-risk groups, was sent to the local regulatory agency for analysis.

Mao Junfeng, an official with the Chinese Ministry of Industry, said the companies had already completed their “capacity-building tasks.” In other words, they are already prepared to meet the demand of priority population groups. The required number has not been published.

NHC vice minister and director of the vaccine research and development group, Zeng Yixin, said prevention efforts are under pressure as temperatures drop in China. Therefore, the country will focus on vaccinating high-risk groups during the winter and spring.

“During the winter and spring seasons, carrying out a new coronavirus vaccination work among some key population groups is of great importance for the prevention of epidemics,” said Zeng.

Among the key group are customs, market, public transport and health workers.
