China’s Sinovac could be rolled out by Sao Paulo without approval from national health regulator

Brazil's Sao Paulo is likely to roll out China's Sinovac COVID-19 vaccine without waiting to get approval from the national health regulator. The statement was made by Governor Joao Doria and it met with severe criticism as experts saw the comments as an empty threat. Doria said the vaccine could be rolled out in Sau Paulo based on approval from regulators in other countries. Doria is a staunch opponent of President Bolsonaro.
