UAE "中 백신 86% 효능"... 중국은 발표 대신 200만명 접종 '강행'

As the global race accelerates to develop vaccinations against COVID-19, it's been revealed that the one developed by a China's Sinopharm is just over 85 percent effective.
Kim Hyo-sun has the details.
The UAE is the first country to announce that the COVID-19 vaccine developed by China's Sinopharm has an efficacy rate of 86 percent.
Its health authorities explained that this was based on the interim analysis of a Phase three clinical trial carried out on some 30-thousand people in the UAE,... which is recording over 1-thousand new cases a day.
Chinese authorities have not made any official statements on the vaccine's efficacy.
Even after receiving final stage clinical trial data on some 50-thousand people,... the Chinese authorities did not comment on the progress.
The New York Times is raising questions,... saying the UAE's announcement also lacks evidence.
It also stated that there was no detailed information on the trial participants, including their age.
China has started inoculating some 2 million people in Sichuan Province,... with watchers forecasting that the general public in China may also receive the shots early next year.
There are mounting questions over China's vaccination program, as its government has remained tightlipped on the country's vaccination program.
