brunei's health ministry on saturday shared the information of the who's emergency use approval for sinopharm vaccine with local media, asking for publication on respective platforms to let the public know that all vaccines used in the country have who endorsement and to encourage wider vaccination.

a report published recently on british journal nature noted that such certification by the who could help "address the current shortfall in vaccines available through covax," and potentially opens the door to "wide distribution in lower-income nations through the covax initiative."

"for many countries, chinese vaccines were the only accessible ones," it wrote, adding that researchers in other countries such as brazil, turkey and chile are "beginning to see evidence of their effect in controlling the pandemic."

china has been fulfilling its commitment to making its covid-19 vaccine a global public good "at a time when the vaccine shots are not available in many places or being nationalized," amin said.
