On December 5, the Chinese Embassy in Uganda reported that 47 Chinese citizens tested positive for nucleic acid samples of neocoronavirus after a cluster of neocoronavirus infections among Chinese workers on a project contracted by an Indian company.
According to the embassy, some of the Chinese workers who tested positive had fever, cough, fatigue and diarrhea, while the rest were asymptomatic, CNA quoted the embassy as saying.
According to the Free Times website, the 47 infected Chinese workers should have been vaccinated with Chinese Xinguan vaccine, and their collective infection raises questions about the effectiveness of the Chinese vaccine.
The report cited official Chinese sources as saying that since June, Sinocuan vaccine has been available to workers who have left China, especially those stationed abroad by enterprises directly under the Central Government, and that more than 56,000 people have left the country since receiving the vaccine. Overseas workers are the main group of people who have been vaccinated with the Xinguan vaccine, and workers in Uganda should have been among those vaccinated.
According to the report, although Chinese biotech workers claim that the widespread vaccination based on emergency use protocols is safe and effective, experts point out that the very few cases of neoconvolutional infections in China after May and the lack of complete data on vaccine recipients do not support this conclusion.
