BEIJING — About 195.02 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines had been administered across China as of April 19, the National Health Commission said on April 20.
The Chinese mainland on April 19 reported one new locally transmitted COVID-19 case in Yunnan province, as well as nine new imported cases.
To ensure that vaccination in the country is both easy and efficient, China has taken a number of measures, such as deploying mobile vaccination vehicles that offers a one-stop service for registration, disinfection and vaccination.
China aims to vaccinate 70 percent to 80 percent of its population between the end of this year and the middle of next year, according to Gao Fu, the head of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
