On Thursday, 1803 people died of the Corona virus on Thursday in Brazil, meanwhile, Brazil had bought large-scale vaccine from China to combat the Coronavirus, but in recent research it is proving to be 'worthless'. This Chinese vaccine has proven effective in only 50.7% of people on the Corona virus strain P1 spread in Brazil.

In recent times, Brazil has emerged as the epicenter of the Coronavirus epidemic and on Sunday, 37000 new cases have been reported in the country. Brazil has the second highest number of Coronavirus cases in the world after the United States. Due to lack of restrictions in the country, disturbances in the application of coronavirus vaccine and P1 variant, this epidemic has been taking a formidable form.

According to the Butantan Biomedical Institute of Sao Paulo, only 50.7 percent effective against the P1 virus, China's sinovac Coronavirus vaccine has proved to be only 50.7 percent effective against the P1 virus. This institute is currently producing Chinese CoronaVirus Vaccine in the country. Brazil's anti-Chinese President, Jar Bolsonaro, initially said he would not buy China's Corona vaccine but had to change his decision because of lack of supplies.

Earlier, China's top disease control officer had said that the country's anti-Corona virus infection vaccines are less effective and the government is considering making them more effective. China's director of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), Gao Fu, said in a seminar in Chengdu city on Saturday that China's vaccines 'do not have a very high rescue rate'. Gao's statement has come at a time when China has given millions of doses of vaccines to other countries and is also continuously trying to create and promote scepticism when the vaccines in Western countries are effective.

Gao said, "Now it is being seriously considered whether we should use different vaccines for the vaccination process." Chinese officials did not directly answer questions about Gao's remarks at Sunday's press conference or possible changes to official plans, but another CDC official said MRNA-based vaccines were being worked on.
