Chen Shizhong attended the Hongjiu Social Care Association Charity Gala tonight and revealed for the first time the progress of the purchase of the Wuhan pneumonia vaccine in Taiwan. He said: “There is news that we have not bought it, but in fact we already have some in our pockets and COVAX is also buying. Whether it is AstraZeneca or Sanofi, there is a possibility to buy it.” But he also admitted that in the end, regardless of the price or time to get the vaccine, the final start is two doses Vaccines next year will become a difficult task.
Chen Shizhong said that because Taiwan has already paid the deposit, the three vaccines AZ, BNT and Sanofi can be selected on the COVAX list, but they have not yet been selected and all remain within possibility.
Chen Shizhong also said that some vaccines have been signed recently, but the vaccine purchase process takes a long time. It takes time to negotiate, sign and pay the deposit. At present, not all the procedures have been followed, but some of the contracted vaccines have to be prepared for payment. The deposit is done.
Regarding when the supply can start, Chen Shizhong replied that it does not matter whether it is an individual manufacturer, COVAX or a foreign manufacturer, there is no way to clearly say when the supply can start, but judging by the progress of the trials from these manufacturers, it should be. It won’t take long. Chen Shizhong added that the time to sign the contract was recently signed one after another, and now only the deposit is required.
