This week’s view: pay attention to the importance of sequential vaccination, and many mRNA vaccines have been clinically approved: at present, China’s local aggregated epidemic shows the characteristics of many points, wide range and frequent occurrence. China still adheres to the policy of “dynamic clearing”, and the vaccination of covid-19 vaccine booster needle is urgent, especially for the elderly and people with chronic diseases. According to academician Zhong Nanshan’s suggestion, sequential vaccination may be a better booster program. At present, China’s sequential strengthening program is to select recombinant protein vaccine or adenovirus vector vaccine for the third dose on the basis of two doses of inactivated vaccine. Although the mRNA vaccine has not yet been approved in China, the mRNA vaccines of Shijiazhuang Pharmaceutical Group and Cansino Biologics Inc(688185) were approved one after another last week, which attracted the market’s attention to the research and development of mRNA vaccine in China. As more and more data show that the effect of sequential booster vaccination is stronger than homologous booster, and sequential booster injection may become the mainstream program of booster injection in the next stage, we suggest to continue to pay attention to Chongqing Zhifei Biological Products Co.Ltd(300122) , Cansino Biologics Inc(688185) , Walvax Biotechnology Co.Ltd(300142) , Shanghai Fosun Pharmaceutical (Group) Co.Ltd(600196) , stone Pharmaceutical Group (H), Ruike Biology (H), and Livzon Pharmaceutical Group Inc(000513) Clover Biology (H) et al.
