The CoronaVac vaccine against Covid-19, produced by Chinese pharmaceutical firm SinoVac, has been approved for use in 39 countries around the world—with more than 1 billion doses distributed globally already.

Today, I’ll take you through the scientific literature to give you everything you need to know about SinoVac’s effectiveness.

Specifically, I’ll tell you what is known about:

How effective SinoVac is at preventing infection, hospitalization, and death?
How does the effectiveness changes against variants, such as gamma or delta?
How quickly does immunity wane after vaccination?
How does SinoVac compare to other Covid vaccines?

As a bonus, we’ll look at a study that actually ranks vaccines for their effectiveness, according to neutralizing antibody levels.

5:48 How do Variants Impact Effectiveness?
8:05 How does Immunity Wane over Time?
9:37 Which Vaccine is the Best?
10:39 What does this mean?

Always remember that this review of scientific literature is not meant to provide medical guidance to individuals. Please follow WHO guidance on vaccines!
