From April 12th, foreigners in Guangzhou started receiving China's COVID-19 vaccine. Many foreigners have actively made appointments for vaccination, including foreign students studying in Guangzhou. As of April 15, more than 60 foreigners have been vaccinated at Guangdong Second Provincial General Hospital.

A student from Jordan said in his country, many elderly people have received vaccines from China. He felt relieved and he decided to have vaccination.

Guangzhou has designated a hospital in each of the 11 districts to vaccinate foreigners. Foreign nationals who wish to be vaccinated can make an appointment through the WeChat service platform ‘粤健通’. The vaccines currently used in Guangzhou are all made in China, and two doses are required for the entire course.
