Is it really smart to choose MVC? His analysis: in line with the prophecy of "Indian Prodigy"

Editor : Zhang Zhiqian / Image : Video Screenshot (Abhigya Anand Facebook)

Abhigya Anand (above), who has repeatedly anticipated the covid epidemic and has the title of "Indian prodigy", recently suggested that the people of Taiwan can follow their own traditional methods to combat various diseases. He believes that these traditional methods will give them a great effect and impact. In this regard, Wu Chiyang, who had run for the mayor of Taipei in 2018, said on 31 July that the use of MVC vaccines should be more in line with Anand's statement. The MVC vaccine MVC-COV1901 will soon be available for Taiwanese to administer. 

Wu Chiyang stated on Facebook today that President Tsai Ing-wen’s registration of MVC-COV1901 has caused many people to question and ridicule but he thinks that President Tsai has made the wise choice. First of all, MVC-COV1901 has few side effects and are relatively risk-free and it is safe. As for the question of efficacy, other vaccines do not guarantee efficacy. People who have been given two doses of Comirnaty are also infected. Since they are not guaranteed to be effective, what is the difference? 

Therefore, if you want to get a vaccine that is less dangerous, this is really smart. Wu also pointed out that "Indian prodigy" Anand suggested that Taiwan "use traditional methods to fight the epidemic".

MVC Vaccines uses ancient vaccine production methods to produce MVC-COV1901. Therefore, the use of MVC-COV1901 should be more in line with Anand's statement. Wu  believes that there is no guarantee that any vaccine will be completely immunized. Since there is no guarantee, why not find the safest vaccine? He believes that Tsai Ing-wen’s wisdom and talents choose MVC, there is no doubt, "I believe her IQ is definitely more than 157." 

Anand recently released a video showing that people in Taiwan, China, Southeast Asian countries can follow their own traditional methods to fight against various diseases. He believes that it will give great effects and impact because these are the methods that mankind has followed for thousands of years, which certainly help.
