Chinese Vice Minister of Science and Technology, Xu Nanping, has announced that the closest vaccine against the new SK virus will be approved for testing by the end of April.
The Chinese official said in a press statement today, Friday, that Chinese scientists have put the safety and health of citizens among the most important priorities since last January 20, and that they are carrying out scientific studies to solve the problem by all means. "The closest vaccine against the new SK virus will be approved for testing by the end of next April," Nanping said. And the Chinese authorities announced, earlier Friday, that the number of deaths from the new Corona virus rose to two thousand 238 people, and infected 75 thousand and 465 others. The mysterious virus appeared in China, for the first time on December 12, 2019, in the city of Wuhan (center), but Beijing officially revealed it in mid-January. The World Health Organization earlier declared a state of emergency on an international scale to counter the outbreak of the virus, which later spread to several countries, causing panic throughout the world.
