Brazil President Refused to Buy Chinese Vaccine

Brazil, where the COVID-19 epidemic is severe, plans to launch a national vaccination program. The authorities once stated that they would use a Chinese vaccine, but this action aroused public opposition. Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro said that he would not buy the Chinese vaccine.

BBC reported that a Bolsonaro supporter urged the authorities not to buy coronavirus vaccine from Sinovac, a Chinese company, on social media, to which Bolsonaro responded, "We will not buy the Chinese vaccine." He added that the Brazilian authorities have not yet approved the use of Sinovac vaccine.

São Paulo Governor João Doria once said the federal government would include CoronaVac, the vaccine from Sinovac, in National Vaccination Program, and agreed to purchase 46 million doses for the citizen of São Paulo. The vaccination program was planned to begin in January 2021. The Health Minister Eduardo Pazuello said on Tuesday (20 October) that the authorities would buy CoronaVac, but Bolsonaro directly rejected it.
