It is the glass vial bottle that restricts the production capacity of the new crown vaccine
On December 19, 2020, my country has already issued a vaccination plan, and started orderly vaccination in many places. Almost a month has passed and many people have been vaccinated. On January 16, Dr. Zhang Wenhong, director of the Department of Infectious Diseases of Huashan Hospital, Shanghai Fudan Affiliated, said in a live broadcast on "Reviewing 2020, looking forward to 2021, if we go out of the darkest hour, the New Coronary Pneumonia Multidisciplinary Forum": "The faster we get the vaccine today and the wider the coverage, it is possible to suppress the virus in the short term." However, what many people did not expect was that the bottle containing the vaccine turned out to be restricting the production capacity of the new crown vaccine. 01 In July 2020, Dr. Zhang Wenhong said in an interview: "Glass bottles containing vaccines are more difficult to produce than vaccines." The reason why it is difficult to produce is because the vaccine needs to be filled in glass bottles of specific materials, because only in this way can the safety and effectiveness of the vaccine be guaranteed to the greatest extent.As far as medicinal glass is concerned, water resistance is one of its most important indicators. The better the water resistance, the smaller its effect on water-based pharmaceuticals. If the water resistance is insufficient, the glass will chemically react with the drug contained in it, thereby causing hidden dangers in efficacy or safety.
