Vlog | Get an inhaled COVID-19 vaccine booster in Guangzhou

Guangzhou has recently started the second COVID-19 booster vaccination. How does it feel when getting an inhaled booster?

Follow GDToday reporter Alice to experience it!

Alice went to a vaccination site in Meihuacun Subdistrict of Guangzhou's Yuexiu District. Having signed the informed consent and confirmed there are no vaccine contradictions, she was about to receive Recombinant Novel Coronavirus Vaccine (Adenovirus Type 5 Vector) for Inhalation.

Here are the steps for vaccine inhalation:

First, exhale deeply.

Second, absorb all the mist in the cup.

Finally, hold breath for at least five seconds.

After vaccination, Alice stayed in the observation area for thirty minutes. People can leave the vaccination if there are no abnormalities.

The formula of this vaccine is the same as that of the injection vaccine. Special equipment is used to atomize the vaccine into tiny particles, which enter the respiratory tract and lungs through inhalation. It is also the world's first inhaled COVID-19 vaccine.
