美媒：中国疫苗成发展中国家抗疫解决方案
“当西方国家正疯抢新冠疫苗时，发展中国家纷纷转向中国。”
近日，美国媒体《华盛顿邮报》以此为题刊文，对富裕国家大规模囤积新冠疫苗，把经济水平相对弱势的发展中国家排斥在外的行为进行了详细报道。
文章称，疫苗上市后，各国都在抢占更多的疫苗份额，部分财力雄厚的国家不仅将疫苗扫购一空，甚至提前与制药公司签订了超过其人口两倍或三倍的合同，与此同时，欠发达国家和地区却无法获得订购资格，深陷疫苗难求的窘境。
为此，不少发展中国家已经将目光转投向中国，中国疫苗正在成为他们抗击新冠肺炎疫情、振兴经济的解决方案。美国《华盛顿邮报》指出，“从北非到南美洲的发展中国家都开始青睐中国疫苗”。
随着中国疫苗接种人数破千万例，其安全性和有效性逐渐得到国际社会的广泛认可，而欧美国家疫苗接种过程中却问题频现，让人担忧，这也让越来越多的国家对中国疫苗充满信心。
近段时间以来，中方已经和正向22个国家出口疫苗，与此同时，中国更是已经向53个发展中国家提供疫苗援助。
据不完全统计，目前已有至少8位外国首脑公开接种了中国疫苗，包括赤几总统奥比昂、土耳其总统埃尔多安、塞舌尔总统拉姆卡拉旺、约旦首相哈苏奈、印度尼西亚总统佐科、巴林王储兼首相萨勒曼、秘鲁总统萨加斯蒂、智利总统皮涅拉。
美国兰德公司中国问题专家、流行病学家布伊在接受《华盛顿邮报》采访时表示：“这可能会真正改变世界有关中国的游戏规则。”
Difficulties in securing vaccines have meant developing countries are turning to China for help, The Washington Post reported on Tuesday. "Wealthier nations have locked up so many doses of Western vaccines — in some cases securing contracts for two or three times their populations," it said. The report also indicated that many developing countries might have to wait until 2023 for widespread inoculations.
A growing number of countries across the world have turned to Chinese COVID-19 vaccines as Western vaccine makers' production and delivery hiccups hamper the fight against the pandemic in many countries.
As Hungary joined Serbia in spearheading mass inoculation with China's Sinopharm COVID-19 vaccine in Europe, other European countries are struggling against a vaccine delivery crisis and exploring a way out of lockdown and into economic recovery.
进入2021年，全球疫情形势仍然十分严峻，尽管新冠疫苗的问世让世界为之欢呼雀跃，给饱受疫情煎熬的人们带来了胜利的曙光，但疫苗分配问题也随之而来。
国际非营利组织ONE Campaign周五发布的报告指出，根据5家疫苗生产公司数据，截至目前，美国、英国、欧盟等几个富裕国家所获取的新冠疫苗剂量已比其所需剂量超出了10亿剂，这使得较贫困国家无法获得足够疫苗。
为确保疫苗在全球范围的公平分配，世卫组织和全球疫苗免疫联盟等机构发起了“新冠肺炎疫苗实施计划”（COVAX），但对发展中国家而言仍然杯水车薪。对此，世界贸易组织(WTO)多次敦促拥有疫苗的国家不要单方面分享，而是将其捐赠给COVAX。
WTO新当选总干事恩戈齐·奥孔乔-伊韦阿拉警告称，不能奉行“疫苗民族主义”，这将让新冠肺炎疫情结束的进程放缓，还会侵蚀所有国家的经济增长，无论富国还是穷国。
Since the arms race for a coronavirus vaccine, there have been calls for cooperation in vaccine development and distribution in order to avoid the intensification of "vaccine nationalism."
Global organizations and experts have shown concern about the practice of developed countries to buy out the vast majority of vaccine supplies around the world. Once the first batch of vaccines is sold out by rich countries, there is no guarantee that poor countries could get their share.
For the world to fully realize the full power of COVID-19 vaccines, government's need to "donate doses now", according to the World Health Organization Director-General, Tedros Adhanom.
The WHO chief noted that the longer it takes to suppress the virus, the more opportunity it has to mutate, hence risk making vaccines less effective.
He assured that there will be enough jabs for everyone because more vaccines will continue to be developed, approved and produced.
对于《华盛顿邮报》提及中国疫苗成为众多发展中国家抗击新冠肺炎疫情最可靠的依赖，中国外交部发言人华春莹回应称，“中国疫苗能够在这个关键时刻为有关国家解燃眉之急的消息让我们感到欣慰。”
她表示，中方开展疫苗国际合作，目标是使疫苗成为全球公共产品。她也呼吁各方携手共同抵制疫苗“民族主义”，促进疫苗公平合理分配，尤其是实现在发展中国家的分配。
