    (China) Vaccines Position


    Paper
    Hey Fellow Delegates and Honorable Chair, today I will be
    addressing the topic about Vaccines in China.
    A vaccine is a biologically prepared substance that assists with immunity to
    diseases by improving the immune system. Vaccines have been a gateway to cure
    many life threatening diseases like polio. Even so, some people are highly hesitant
    about getting vaccines or allowing their children to receive vaccines. The reason
    why vaccines are a main concern in the world is because there was an epidemic
    diseases. The WHO stands for the Worlds Health Organization, The World Health
    Organization is a specialized agency of the United Nations that is concerned with
    international public health. The WHO was founded after the spread of epidemic diseases in Europe
    and the continuing efforts to establish an organization whose focus would be diseases by the Pan
    American Health Organization (PAHO) which resulted in the constitution of the WHO. WHO in a
    recent study said that 1 in every 5 children around the globe dont get injections
    and the same amount die to this, around the globe. Sometimes the reasons why
    vaccines are not given might be because of past myths and theories. In order to
    have a better and healthier world this is obviously an ongoing issue that has to be
    addressed, and China is already addressing this issue.

    China has provided vaccines to many areas, especially its rural areas. The Chinese were the
    first to discover and use a primitive form of vaccination, called variolation. It was carried out as
    early as the 10th century, and particularly between the 14th and 17th centuries.
    The aim was to prevent smallpox by exposing healthy people to tissue from the scabs caused by
    the disease. They did this by either putting it under the skin or, more often, inserting powdered
    scabs from smallpox pustules up the nose. China's vaccine-making prowess captured world
    attention in 2009 when one of its companies developed the first effective vaccine against swine
    flu in just 87 days as the new virus swept the globe. In the past, new vaccine developments
    had usually been won by the U.S. and Europe. Then, this past March the World Health
    Organization announced that China's drug safety authority meets international standards for
    vaccine regulation. It opened the doors for Chinese vaccines to be submitted for WHO approval
    so they can be bought by U.N. agencies and the GAVI Alliance. The UN, specifically the WHO,
    has taken action by implemented the Global Vaccine Action Plan (GVAP) that began in 2011 and
    target to improve the vaccination rates by the year 2020.( The Global Vaccine Action Plan
    (GVAP) endorsed by the 194 Member States of the World Health Assembly in May 2012
    is a framework to prevent millions of deaths by 2020 through more equitable access to existing
    vaccines for people in all communities.) China endorsed this as well, which makes China a
    supporter.

    Due to the ongoing problems, China has had really strict laws implemented do to this. For
    example, it is recommended that you see your physician and preferably a doctor at a travel
    medicine clinic at least 4-6 weeks before you are scheduled to depart. There are some
    recommended vaccines and it's important that you take the necessary precautions and be up-todate on your routine vaccines. China wants all counties to have strict laws towards vaccination.
    The reason why China wants this to happen is because they have gone through the Disease
    outbreaks such as SARS and Avian Flu. They know in order to have a better, healthier nation
    where citizens can live healthier lives. If any countries have any problem funding this, china will
    always be first to help.
