CHINA’s Covid-19 vaccines have finally gained their well-deserved recognition this month after EU nations led by Germany and France called for openness to accept Chinese and Russian vaccines amid acute shortage.

Earlier this month, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Emmanuel Macron expressed openness of their countries to any vaccines approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) to overcome vaccine shortage.
