China risks COVID immunity gap amid slow vaccine uptake

China risks COVID immunity gap amid slow vaccine uptake | Coronavirus pandemic News

There are no lines stretching outside the door. A single nurse at the check-in desk, a security guard, a volunteer directing patients and a couple of other nurses behind a partition far outnumber the one man there for his vaccination. Only about 4 percent of China’s population was vaccinated against the coronavirus by the end of February but there appears to be little sense of urgency among most health officials or the public about it. The reported goal is to vaccinate 40 percent of the population by the end of July – which would mean vaccinating 560 million more people – and achieve possible herd immunity by the end of the year in time for the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics.
