Shipments of the vaccine made by the Beijing-based pharmaceutical company "Sinovac" have arrived in Indonesia. This is in preparation for a mass campaign to vaccinate citizens, with another 1.8 million doses expected to arrive by January. But the final stage tests are far from over.


How the vaccine works - All you need to know about the Chinese Corona vaccine produced by "Sinovac"


The Chinese "Coronavac" vaccine works by using dead virus particles to expose the body's immune system to the virus without causing a dangerous reaction.


Assistant Professor "Luoyu Dahi" of Nanyang Technological University told the "BBC". "The Chinese Coronavac vaccine is considered a more traditional method that is used with success in many famous vaccines."


He added, "RNA vaccines are considered a new type of vaccine and there is no successful example of using these vaccines in humans."


Advantages of the Chinese Corona vaccine - All you want to know about the Chinese Corona vaccine produced by "Sinovac":


One of the main advantages of the "Sinovac" vaccine is that it can be stored in a regular refrigerator at a temperature between 2 and 8 degrees Celsius. Like the Oxford vaccine, it's made with a genetically modified virus that causes the common cold in chimpanzees.


According to "The Lancet", "we are only getting information from the first phase and second phase trials of the Coronavac vaccine."


Zhu Vinci, one of the authors of the paper, said that these results are from 144 participants in the first phase of the experiments. And 600 participants in the second phase of the trials, means that the vaccine is suitable for emergency use.


In September, "Yin" of the company "Sinovac", said, "The tests involved more than 1000 volunteers. Some of them showed slight fatigue or discomfort ... not more than 5%.


The "Butantan" Institute in Brazil, which is a partner of "Sinovac", said that "it is expected that Sinovac will publish the results of the experiments before December 15th."


Professor Liu commented, "It is difficult to comment on the effectiveness of the vaccine at this time given the limited information available."


He added: "Based on the preliminary data ... the Coronavac vaccine is likely to be effective, but we should wait until the results of the third phase of the trials appear."


Production quantity - All you need to know about the Chinese Corona vaccine produced by the company "Sinovac":


Sinovac will be able to produce 300 million doses per year at its 20,000 square meter facility. As with other vaccines, an individual needs two doses. Which means that this production is enough for 150 million people a year.


The "BBC" said that a team noticed that nurses in Yuan City were selling the vaccine for $ 60. A company in Indonesia said the vaccine will cost $ 13.60.
