Export volume of human vaccines from China 2017-2022
Impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, the demand for Chinese-made vaccines increased significantly. In 2021, China exported almost five thousand tons of human vaccines, representing an increase of almost 30 times from the previous year. Despite their lower efficacy ratio, Chinese COVID-19 vaccines manufactured by Sinovac, Sinopharm, and CanSino were widely adopted around the world, mostly in developing nations.
