据路透社报道，周一，智利卫生监管机构决定批准中国科兴生物技术有限公司生产的新型冠状病毒疫苗可用于6岁以上儿童，从而使更多的人参与到该国快速推进的接种运动中。
这个南美国家已经批准辉瑞公司的疫苗用于12岁以上儿童，自5月以来已有654053的适龄儿童接受了至少一剂疫苗。
中国科兴公司CoronaVac疫苗已经成为智利疫苗接种运动的支柱，迄今为止，该国1900万居民中已有1300多万人完全接种了疫苗，其中，科兴CoronaVac疫苗共计1949万剂。
智利卫生部长Enrique Paris说：“这对学龄儿童和那些以前没有被纳入疫苗接种计划的儿童来说是个好消息。”
在公共卫生研究所召集的评估小组中，5名专家投票赞成对6岁以上的儿童进行接种，2名专家投票赞成只对12岁以上的儿童进行注射，1名专家投票投票反对对儿童接种。
中国科兴公司CoronaVac疫苗还在中国和印度尼西亚获准对儿童紧急使用。
智利最近几周的感染病例明显下降，周一仅记录了435例新病例，该国共有160万例新冠肺炎确诊病例，37108例死亡。
