COVID-19 Vaccine Explainer - COVID-19 Vaccine (Vero Cell), Inactivated (Sinopharm)
The SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine (VeroCell) is an inactivated vaccine against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) which stimulates the body’s immune system without risk of causing disease. Once inactivated viruses get presented to the body’s immune system, they stimulate the production of antibodies and make the body ready to respond to an infection with live SARS-CoV-2. This vaccine is adjuvanted (with aluminum hydroxide), to boost the response of the immune system.
