Some Chinese citizens may forget about injections when vaccinated against coronavirus. Active deployment of an inhaled vaccine against COVID-19 has begun in this country.
China has launched the world's first inhaled COVID-19 vaccine, which is delivered by mouth by inhalation.

This distinguishes this drug from the nasal form of the vaccine, which began to be actively distributed in Russia and is also the first in the world.

Chinese health officials hope the inhaled vaccine will increase demand for the drug among people who are afraid of needles and injections. And this will allow, in the foreseeable future, to still remove the draconian antiviral restrictions that operate in the territory of the Celestial Empire, often leading to rolling quarantines of multimillion-dollar megacities and stopping production, which painfully hits the national economy.
