Indonesia becomes first country to approve mRNA COVID-19 vaccine developed by a Chinese company

Indonesia said it has granted emergency use approval to an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine developed by a Chinese company, becoming the first country, ahead of even China, to do so.

However, Walvax has yet to publish efficacy readings for its vaccine, now known as AWcorna, from its large late-stage trial which would show how well it can reduce the risk of COVID cases and deaths from the disease. It was not immediately clear how widely the newly approved shot will be used in Indonesia, where more than 63% of its population is fully vaccinated. Health experts around the world also recommend using Omicron-targeting vaccines over original COVID vaccines.

That could make the vaccine ideal for countries with poor logistics in remote areas. Indonesia is an archipelago of thousands of islands.

Derek H. Burney: Our failed COVID responseIt is time for governments, with a degree of humility, to conduct a comprehensive, independent review intended to ensure that we are better prepared for the… Lockdowns and vaccine blackmail for a majority of the population that didn't even require it are the culprits. Nevermind the division between families/friends/neighbors. To top it all off they destroyed the economy. Just sickening what they've done in the name of 'safety'. People need to understand it wasn't COVID that was the issue. It was the government's response to it. 'Liberties aren't given, they are taken.' Aldous Huxley Frankly the crimes of those supposed to conduct an investigation on themselves are so vast, blatant & negatively impactful that it's impossible to imagine they'll properly do it.
