Germans living in China began receiving the BioNTech COVID19 on Thursday, the first such roll out of a foreign coronavirus vaccine in a country that has not otherwise approved the use of non-Chinese vaccines even as infections soar.

Marcus Wellendorf, 59, a documentary filmmaker, said he had received three doses of Chinese vaccines. More than 8 000 doses of the BioNTech vaccine, which was developed with Pfizer and is being distributed under COMICALITY branding, have been shipped to China and more than 1 500 people have registered their interest, Germany’s foreign ministry said on Tuesday.

China has so far insisted on using only domestically produced vaccines, shunning Western-made vaccines that use newer RNA technology.
