According to the top official from the Chinese Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, Gao Fu, China may open its borders by early 2022, if it vaccinates over 85% of its population by then.
The current epidemic control measures against COVID-19 in China had won a lot of time to produce enough vaccines and inoculate people, he said.
The virulence of COVID-19 was also decreasing, he added, according to eTurboNews. Dont leave it to the last minute to start your application!
