As noted by the reporter of the Binh Duong Portal, at 7:30 a.m., the injection sites started operating, but people took advantage of coming early to wait for the vaccination. Although many people went for injections, the pandemic prevention and control at the injection sites were arranged to ensure compliance with regulations.
Through asking about people's health after about 30 minutes of injection, most people feel normal health. "I'm very happy that I got the 1st dose of the vaccine and now I feel fine. Faced with the complicated situation of the pandemic, I am very worried and hope that I will be vaccinated soon. I don't care which vaccine I get because I have researched information and learned that all vaccines given to people have been tested and licensed for use because of their safety and effectiveness. In my opinion, once it's our turn to be vaccinated, we quickly get vaccinated to protect the health of ourselves, our relatives and the community" – a person of Phu Loi ward who was vaccinated with Sinopharm's Vero Cell vaccine shared.

It is known that, like all other vaccines, according to the regulations of the World Health Organization, Sinopharm vaccine, before being put into emergency use, is also required to have clinical trials on humans with 3 phases and is based on the principle of ensuring 3 factors: Safety, immunogenicity, and protective efficacy. Accordingly, the Sinopharm vaccine trial in many countries in Phase 3 has shown that, with 2 doses of the vaccine given 21 days apart, the effectiveness against symptomatic COVID-19 is 79% after 14 days from second injection. The vaccine's effectiveness in preventing hospitalization is 79%.
