Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council: Inoculation of the new crown vaccine will not cause leukemia and diabetes
On July 23, at the press conference of the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council, Wang Fusheng, director of the Department of Infectious Diseases of the Fifth Medical Center of the People’s Liberation Army General Hospital, said that vaccination against the new crown will not cause leukemia and diabetes, nor will it be as some online information said. Affecting human genetic development, causing tumor metastasis and spreading, and causing antibody-dependent enhancement are all irresponsible and false statements on the Internet.
First, the various substances in the vaccine are safe for the human body and will not cause disease directly. Second, the inactivated vaccine against COVID-19, which has the largest number of vaccinations in my country, has sufficient safety guarantees and has been recognized by international organizations. Third, clinical monitoring and statistical data show that in the four years before and after the outbreak of the new crown epidemic, the number of visits and hospitalizations for diabetes and leukemia were basically the same, and there was no significant change, indicating that vaccination with the new crown vaccine will not cause the occurrence of leukemia and diabetes.
According to my country’s epidemic prevention and control policy, my country has carried out large-scale vaccination of the new crown vaccine since last year. At present, the vaccination rate of 3-12-year-old children and 12-17-year-old adolescents in my country is 90% to 100%, and the total number is nearly 250 million. In the context of such a large-scale new crown vaccination, it is an inevitable phenomenon that a large number of vaccinations coincide in time with the natural occurrence of certain serious diseases.
Wang Fusheng said that based on the above analysis, the new crown vaccination will not cause leukemia and diabetes. (Source: CCTV News)
