The Hong Kong government announced on September 4 that it had submitted a letter of intent to the global access mechanism for new coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) vaccines (COVAX) as part of Hong Kong's vaccine procurement strategy.

COVAX is a project led by the World Health Organization (WHO) and international vaccine-related organizations to promote the development, production and distribution of new crown vaccines.

There are currently 9 vaccines included in COVAX.

So far, more than 30 candidate vaccines are currently undergoing human testing, and at least 8 have entered the third phase of testing, but not all vaccines have participated in the COVAX program.

Including Russia’s recently published papers proving that the vaccine is initially effective, the "Sputnik-V" vaccine, as well as China’s Cansino Biology, Kexing Biology and Sinopharm’s vaccines, are currently not included in the COVAX list.

According to WHO, the 9 vaccines currently in COVAX are all funded by the Epidemiological Prevention Innovation Alliance (CEPI).

Among the 9 vaccines, only one vaccine comes from China, one from Hong Kong, one from Sino-US cooperation, and the rest from Europe, America and other countries.

Only two vaccines entered the third phase of the experiment.

The vaccine has now entered the third phase of human testing.
