China officially allows start of clinical tests for first vaccine against "COVID-19"

The Chinese authorities have officially given permission to begin clinical trials for the first vaccine ever installed in the country against the emerging coronavirus ( COVID-19 ).

On Tuesday, according to a report by the country´s ruling Communist Party, Chinese central television said: "A team of researchers led by the Academy Chen Wai, at 20:18 local time, has allowed the start of clinical tests . "

The report indicated that preliminary trials have confirmed that the vaccine, which was installed by the Chen Wai team, is safe and effective .

The expert team led by Chen Wai, a member of the Chinese Military Medical Academy, the General Staff of the Chinese People´s Liberation Army, and the director of the Institute of Biological Engineering of the Chinese Army, arrived on January 26 in Wuhan, Hubei Province, a source of the outbreak of the Corona virus, which has been classified by WHO. Global prevalence is a general epidemic, as it launched work on the study of the disease and sought to find ways to deter it .

The eminent Chinese scientist is currently presiding over a laboratory operating in the top-level biological protection system located in Wuhan, and conducting vaccine experiments designed by the Chinese Academy team .

Chinese scientists have previously confirmed the installation of 8 different vaccines against the emerging corona virus, saying that some have proven effective as a result of animal tests .
