On 31st March, the chairperson of WHO’s Strategic Advisory Group of Experts (SAGE) Alejandro Cravioto said that Chinese vaccine makers Sinopharm and Sinovac have presented data on their COVID-19 vaccines indicating levels of efficacy that would be compatible with those required by the World Health Organization. It is expected that recommendations on those vaccines will be issued by the end of April. WHO spokeswoman Margaret Harris said earlier that Sinopharm and Sinovac vaccines could receive WHO emergency listing “quite soon”. The two China-made vaccines have seen strong demand from many developing countries.
