23 August is the first day of the domestic Medigen Vaccine Biologics Corp (MVC) MVC-COV1901 vaccination. President Tsai Ing-wen took the lead in launching the vaccine. In addition to the response and support of the Chinese people, many foreigners also believe in the power of Taiwan vaccine! American astronomer and special postdoctoral researcher at the Institute of Astrophysics of the Academia Sinica, Alex Teachey, also happily showed off his vaccination card on Twitter yesterday, saying bluntly, "I am very happy to receive my first dose of vaccine in Taiwan!"
On the first day of the launch of MVC-COV1901, President Tsai Ing-wen took the lead in the morning to go to the National Taiwan University Medical School Gymnasium for vaccination. Last night, she revealed to the Chinese that there was no pain when the vaccine was administered, and it did not affect her work schedule throughout the day. Personal experience eliminates Chinese people’s doubts about domestic vaccines. Yesterday, many people supported the vaccine made by themselves, and they were excited to share their feelings and conditions after the injection on the social network.
Not only Chinese, but many foreigners also believe in Taiwanese vaccines. American astronomer Alex Teachey, who came to Taiwan in September last year, showed off his vaccination card on his personal Twitter on the 23rd. In the photo, he also brought a green mask with the creative words "TAIWAN" printed on it. He said happily, "Today I am I am very happy because I chose MVC as my first vaccine in Taiwan! Go Taiwan!"
Teachey pointed out that the reason why she chose the high-end was that the policy adopted by Taiwan in the face of the epidemic in the past was quite efficient. Therefore, I believe that Taiwan's vaccine research and development, and that if the Taiwan authorities release unsafe or ineffective vaccines, it is not in the long-term interests of the government. .
Teachey further stated that because MVC-COV1901 has not yet completed the Phase III trial, many people have expressed doubts and do not want to come out to receive the injection. This mentality is like "requiring" other people to "take possible risks" first. The people in front will be relieved to be vaccinated if they are okay. For this reason, Qi Xiaolan is willing to be the first batch of attackers, using his own experience to convince those who have doubts about the vaccine, "For me, this is a moment when I can stand up."
In response to the frequent rumors and mistrust about vaccines during this period, Teachey bluntly stated that in the face of such a powerful vaccine, coupled with the current raging variant viruses, not being vaccinated is the real danger. He affirmed Taiwan's epidemic prevention performance, saying that staying in Taiwan makes him feel safe, and urged everyone to use the vaccine as soon as possible.

On 24 August 2021, Taiwan Internet columnist Lu Zhijun suddenly died at home after receiving his first dose of MVC-COV1901 on 23 August.
In this regard, the command center commander Chen Shizhong told reporters today after the meeting that Lu Zhijun died this morning after experiencing physical discomfort. A preliminary study concluded that there was a possibility of myocardial infarction. The detailed cause of death is subject to judicial review.
Lu Zhijun returned home from the vaccination yesterday and revealed to his family that he felt a little uncomfortable. Today, his family found that he had not gotten up and went into the room to check. Unexpectedly, he had no breathing or consciousness. When the ambulance arrived, Lu Zhijun was already in an OHCA state. He was immediately given emergency treatment such as CPR, AED electric shock, and intravenous injection, but unfortunately died after being sent to the hospital. Family members said that Lu Zhijun had a history of high blood pressure but no other diseases.
Lu Zhijun's death must go through judicial consultation. Whether the cause of death was related to Medigen vaccination is currently being examined by a forensic doctor. Only by testing can the experts clarify whether the cause of death is related to the vaccination.
At around 9 am on 24 August, Lu Zhijun was suddenly uncomfortable at home. Later, he fell into a coma without breathing and heartbeat. His family immediately helped call 119 for help. However, the 56-year-old Lu Zhijun was not very optimistic before he was sent to the doctor, although he had CPR and AED along the way. Measures were taken but he still died after being sent to a doctor.
Regarding the case, Taoyuan Information Director Zhan Heshun explained that after the city government received the information in the morning, the Health Bureau notified the command centre in accordance with the procedures. The detailed cause of death was related to the protein subunit vaccine. It depends on whether the family members are willing to undergo an autopsy, and it will be unified after the CDC clarifies. As announced, the city government will also assist the family in dealing with follow-up related matters.

Editor : Zhang Shizhe
The first wave of MVC COVID-19 Vaccine (MVC-COV1901) was administered on 23 August 2021. President Tsai Ing-wen was also the first to hit the vaccine. Only sporadic uncomfortable cases of fainting were reported in various places, which made high-end stock prices rise slightly. However, it fell after opening high today.
The drop in early trading was once more than 3%. Near noon, the drop in midday converged to 0.15%. However, there was a case of death after administering Medigen vaccine, making the MVC stock price once touched the intraday limit. This noon came the news of the death of an Internet columnist after the vaccination.

Editor : Tan Yongyong
Lu Zhijun, an Internet columnist in Taoyuan, showed symptoms of discomfort this morning. He was rushed to the hospital due to breathlessness or unconsciousness, and he died before arriving at the hospital. As to whether it is related to the vaccination, it still needs to be investigated and clarified by relevant units.
In this regard, Taoyuan City Information Director Zhan Heshun said that after the city government received the information in the morning, the Health Bureau notified the command centre in accordance with the procedures to see whether the cause of death was related to the vaccine, depending on whether the family members were willing to undergo an autopsy, and after the CDC clarifies, the Taoyuan government will also assist the family in dealing with follow-up related matters.
The Taoyuan City Notification Command Centre judged that Lu Zhijun also posted yesterday that he was honored to administer MVC-COV1901 on the same ladder with President Tsai.
Lu Zhijun, 56 years old, released a photo of the vaccine on Facebook PO yesterday morning, and said, " It’s an honor that our three members are all on the same ladder as President Tsai.” He also posted a yellow card for my daughter’s vaccine. A friend also left a message to ask, "A family of three take MVC vaccine?" He replied, "Yes. Support Guoan Industrial, MVC, and scientifically proven that the vaccine is the most effective and safest."
Unexpectedly, there was news of death today, many friends also reluctantly left messages, "Brother Lu, I just saw the news, I really can't believe it! I'm sorry to be sad! May you go all the way! RIP", "Already in the sky, leave without saying goodbye, cry.", " Is this old friend you?", "Brother Lu is going all the way, sad!"

Concerns over sudden death one day after MVC-COV1901 vaccination and "rare side effects"! Doctors exposed self-protection trick
Editor : Chen Yiling
Internet columnist Lu Zhijun died suddenly on 24 August, one day after his first dose of MVC-COV1901. The initial cause of death may be related to myocardial infarction, although it is still awaiting judicial review. The vaccine has been tested, but it has also caused panic, causing many people to worry about side effects.
In this regard, Lin Shibi, a leading infection department physician at the front desk, advises vaccinators to do self-protection tricks after exposure to prevent rare side effects.
In this regard, the clinical response report of Medigen pointed out that the common side effects after the high-end vaccination were pain and tenderness at the injection site, with a frequency of 71.2%, soreness/general weakness 36%, muscle pain 27.6%, headache 22.2%, and diarrhea frequency 15.1% . In addition, high-end also had rare adverse reactions (incidence less than one in a thousand), including facial nerve palsy and high intraocular pressure. One of the subjects was inoculated after the second dose. On the 13th day, acute peripheral facial nerve palsy was reported.
According to the "ETtoday News Cloud" report, Lin Shibi, a physician at the front desk, pointed out that since it is uncertain whether the subject's side effects are directly related to the vaccine, the incidence has to be closely tracked.

Way to detect facial nerve palsy and recovery after 10 days after the occurrence
As for how to avoid MVC rare side effects? Lin Shibi pointed out that after vaccination, get up and look in the mirror every day and observe for many days. Keep smiling in the mirror and check whether the corners of the mouth are the same. If there is a high and low problem, you have to be careful about facial nerve palsy.
Lin Shibi further explained that he speculated that after the antibody is produced, autoimmune attacks the nerves and causes facial nerve disorders, so it will not happen immediately after the vaccination, and may be within 1 to 2 weeks of vaccination. It will only appear, so you need to smile more after vaccinating with MVC-COV1901.
As for how to deal with facial nerve palsy? Lin Shibi said that the facial nerve disorder will heal on its own. Most people return to normal functions, and there will be signs of improvement about 10 days after the occurrence. However, it is recommended to seek medical treatment at all times, use steroids, and follow the doctor's arrangements.

Whether the cause of death was related to drugs or vaccines has to wait for follow-up investigation to clarify.
It is understood that after receiving the MVC covi vaccine yesterday, the man surnamed Peng did not show any symptoms of discomfort. At 8 am, he also walked around the house normally. However, when the father of a man surnamed Peng was about to go to the bathroom at 11 o'clock, he suddenly found his son lying on the bathroom floor but he did not respond.

After the bad news of Lu Zhijun came out, Wang Haoyu posted a post on Facebook, pointing out that Lu Zhijun had contacted him before he was alive. At that time, he revealed his physical discomfort and described the symptoms that occurred at that time, including "chest pain and discomfort in the center of the stomach, upper abdominal pain, back pain and discomfort, nausea. He had six major symptoms such as vomiting, dizziness, and cold sweats. It did not take long before he learned of Lu Zhijun's death, which made him very self-blame that "he was not forced to see a doctor at the time."
Finally, Wang Haoyu also urged that whenever people have similar symptoms in the future, they must seek medical attention as soon as possible, and do not delay the precious rescue time.
Lu Zhijun's case is the first domestic death case in which an adverse reaction was reported after a Medigen covi vaccination. However, it is not ruled out that the case is related to myocardial infarction. The case itself also has a history of chronic disease. Judicial inspection must be conducted to determine whether the cause of death was related to vaccination.

Can people with a history of chronic disease vaccinate with MVC-COV1901? You Shuhui explodes that "five types of people" may be in danger
Editor : Zhang Zhiqian
A 56-year-old internet columnist Lu Zhijun received MVC-COV10-1 on the 23rd and died on the morning of the 24th after becoming unwell. The commander of the Central Epidemic Epidemic Center Command Center Chen Shizhong said that the case had a history of chronic illness. But judging from his Facebook page, it seems that the situation is quite stable after the vaccination.
In this regard, Kuomintang member of Taipei City Councillor You Shuhui questioned whether people with a history of chronic diseases can get vaccinated with the MVC COVID-19 Vaccine.
You Shuhui revealed on Facebook on 24 August that according to the vaccinations on the website of the Department of Disease Control, only those who have had severe allergies to vaccine ingredients, those who have had a fever or have acute moderate to severe diseases, and pregnant women are not recommended to receive MVC-COV1901. And there are no chronic diseases or high blood pressure among the participants of the clinical trials.
Image : You Shuhui discovered that there are five types of people who are not suitable for registration as vaccine subjects. (Photo/Retrieved from You Shuhui's Facebook)
However, You Shuhui also found that when the Ministry of Health and Welfare announced the solicitation of subjects for clinical trials of vaccines last year, it must be aware that there are clear remarks. These five categories of people are not recommended to register: "Illness control is not stable. "Patients with chronic diseases", "Patients with weakened immune function or immune system disease", "Have undergone major surgery within one month", "Cancer is undergoing treatment or is about to be treated", "Women who are trying to conceive, become pregnant or breastfeeding". You Shuhui said that the problem is here.
If clinical trials preclude these five types of people from being tested, it also means that the side effects of MVC-COV1901 on these five types of people may not be known at all. Is the MVC covi vaccine suitable for these five types of people? How to assess the impact and risks of the vaccination? It should be said earlier.
You Shuhui called for the death of any life to be regrettable, "We don't know whether this dead case is related to the MVC vaccine. The Ministry of Health and Welfare should check and clarify as soon as possible, without rushing to link to 'chronic disease'."

A 39-year-old man surnamed Peng was vaccinated on the 23rd, but he was found lying in the bathroom by his father the next day and was sent to the doctor and pronounced dead. The prosecutors conducted an examination on Peng Nan’s body this afternoon. The police said that when Peng was found lying on the ground, he still had a syringe in his hand with heroin inside. There was no opinion on the cause of death, and Peng Nan's body was later brought back to deal with his afterlife.
It is reported that Peng has a number of previous drug convictions, and he has used drugs of grade 1 to grade 3, and is a frequent visitor to the police station. Peng Nan registered to administer the MVC-COV1901 in accordance with government announcements. He went to administer the vaccine on the 23rd. There was no special reaction on that day. He was in normal physical condition. He was found lying in the bathroom with a syringe on his hand on the morning of the 24th. He was sent to a doctor and eventually died.
According to police investigations, Peng had a medical record of fainting after administering ketamine in the past, and he had used drugs on many previous medical records. It is reported that in addition to Peng Nan holding a syringe containing heroin in his hand, the police also found amphetamines in his home room. It is suspected that Peng Nan continued to take drugs before the vaccine was administered.
The police inspected Peng's body today and found that his body had overdose of poison, which should be the main cause of death. After informing his family, the family accepted the result and no subsequent autopsy was required. The police urged that if you take drugs for a while and harm your life, the people must stay away from drugs and not try the law or even endanger their lives.

4 people died after being vaccinated with MVC! Expert: "This phenomenon" only needs to stop vaccinating
Reporter : Ye Weichen
MVC-COV1901 has been launched since 23 August but 4 people died after vaccination within 3 days. They causes of death are still not determined to be related to the vaccine. They may be related diabetes and myocardial infarction and Peng's case is related to heroin overdose.
The head of the National Taiwan University Children’s Hospital believed that the cause of death in these cases was inconsistent, so there was no signal to stop vaccinating but the results of the investigation must be announced as soon as possible to avoid slowing the vaccination tide.
MVC-COV1901 hit a record of 179,000 vaccinations on the first day of 23 August, with a report rate of 92.8%. On the second day, it dropped slightly to 88.4%. There were 112,000 vaccinations. The command centre believes that there is no adverse reaction as a result of the people’s appointments.
Li Bingying, an expert advisory member of the command center, said that clinical trials will prevent special circumstances from interfering with the experimental results.
Therefore, domestic vaccines will also exclude pregnant women, immune insufficiency, patients with uncontrolled chronic diseases and other ethnic groups during clinical trials. These ethnic groups are on the market for vaccines. People can still go for vaccination afterwards but it also needs to be evaluated by a doctor.
After all, a vaccine is an option that has more advantages than disadvantages. He pointed out that there have been 660 deaths after vaccination with AZ and Moderna, and there will still be deaths without vaccination, and some cases have been answered because of their own body conditions.
There is no evidence that there is a causal relationship between the deaths and the vaccines. So they are safe to vaccinate.
According to Huang Limin, director of the National Taiwan University Children's Hospital, the current four deaths have different patterns of death, and there is no signal to stop vaccinating. If the death conditions are the same, the vaccinating may be stopped.
He pointed out that this vaccine is indeed an emergency use authorized vaccine. The government should set up an expert group to examine death cases and announce the investigation results as soon as possible so that the public can feel at ease. Otherwise it may affect the vaccination rate.

MVC 4 dead panic! The front desk doctor reveals 5 principles to keep in mind "the main cause of sudden vaccine death"
Editor : Zhou Jiaru
Deaths a day or two after MVC-COV1901 vaccination were reported in just a few days, arousing discussions from all walks of life.
Lin Shibi, a major infectious disease physician at the front desk, pointed out the "5 principles" and pointed out that if the vaccine causes sudden death, the main cause should be severe anaphylactic shock. When a severe allergic reaction occurs, it should be possible to observe the reaction in the respiratory mucosa, but death has not been confirmed yet.
In connection with the administration of the vaccine, he also called on not to spread unnecessary fear. After sudden deaths in MVC cases, the outside world shouted to stop vaccinating and other remarks, and the rate of vaccination missed gradually increased.
Lin Shibi lamented that many people are "spreading fear". He pointed out 5 principles and believed that people who do not get vaccines can still get sick and die suddenly. It is just that the current sudden death cases happen after the vaccine administration. Therefore, many people will naturally link the two together.
However, whether there is a causal relationship between sudden death and the vaccine remains to be clarified. Lin Shibi shouted to stop spreading unnecessary fear.

Also, if the vaccine causes sudden death, the main cause should be severe allergies. Most of the sexual shocks occur within half an hour after the injection. This is why the vaccine must be observed for half an hour after the injection. As long as it can be detected immediately, given immediately or given first aid, it can be quickly rescued.
Very few may occur in more than half an hour. In addition, he urged that in respect of the wishes of family members, these cases should be dissected as much as possible to clarify the causes of death.
If it is caused by a severe allergic reaction caused by the vaccine, allergic-related inflammation should be seen in the respiratory mucosa, but not found. What about other diseases that can explain the cause of death, "Will there be special unknown side effects that can cause sudden death? It cannot be said that it is impossible in science, but the probability should be extremely low."
He revealed that MVC was the lowest "but there is this big doubt." It can be compared with the previous figures reported by AZ and Moderna. If the age is exceeded a lot after correction, "it may be a signal of danger."
This time, the four MVC cases are all in the younger group under 64. On 18 August, AZ and Moderna previously reported 640 deaths, of which the notification rate for 18 to 49 years old was 0.7 per 100,000, 30 cases out of 4 million doses, and the notification rate for 50 to 64 years old was 2.6 per 100,000 doses. There are 77 cases.

Cause of Lu Zhijun's death: Aortic dissection and pericardial tamponade
Editor : Chen Xijie
Internet columnist Lu Zhijun died suddenly the next day after being vaccinated with MVC-COV1901.
After a forensic examination, the autopsy report was released on 26 August 2021. The cause of death was aortic dissection and pericardial tamponade. Luo Yijun, deputy leader of the medical response team, explained the cause of death.
Luo Yijun, deputy leader of the Central Government Medical Response Team, explained that the anatomy report looks like it must leave the heart and enter the aorta called the aortic root. When peeling or rupture occurs, the centrifugal capsule is just aside. The rupture enters the pericardium and causes pericardial tamponade. Pericardial tamponade is an emergency that will cause rapid blood pressure drop and shock, aortic peeling and psychogenicity. Sadly, Lu Zhijin passed away in shock.
Chen Shizhong said that the vaccine batch numbers for deaths will not be announced. He explained that the 4 cases were divided in 3 different batch numbers, different regions, not the same batch number, there is no need to announce the batch number of the vaccine for the death case.

Second shot of MVC-COV1901 from 27 September 2021, hunger not a side-effect of vaccination
Source : Taipei Times
People who receive a first dose of the MVC COVID-19 vaccine MVC-COV1901 between Monday and Sunday would be eligible for a second shot from 27 September 2021, the Central Epidemic Command Center (CECC) said on 25 August 2021.
The Medigen vaccine MVC-COV1901 was rolled out on Monday, with President Tsai Ing-wen receiving the first shot.
Minister of Health and Welfare Chen Shizhong (陳時中), who heads the commander centre, said that as there are no independent studies showing an optimal interval between two Medigen doses, the interval has been set at about 28 days, following what was done in clinical trials.
The CECC would arrange for people to book an appointment for a second dose through the national online COVID-19 vaccination system to receive dose No. 2 from 27 September.
People who have received a first Medigen dose at least 28 days prior and have an urgent need for a second dose due to travel plans abroad can take their vaccination and other documents — for example, airline ticket receipts, flight itineraries, proof of enrollment in a foreign school or business travel permission — to a designated hospital, get assessed by a doctor and receive the second dose earlier than they would through the booking system, he said.
Asked about public figures reporting “feeling hungry” after receiving a first dose of the Medigen vaccine, CECC specialist advisory panel convener Chang Shan-chwen (張上淳) said that such a side effect was not reported in clinical trials.
From an academic perspective, Chang said that he does not understand how vaccination could cause hunger.
However, some side effects of other vaccines were not reported during phase 1 and 2 clinical trials, but were after they were rolled out, so if people report “feeling hungry” after receiving MVC-COV1901, the authorities would monitor it as a post-vaccination adverse event.
Meanwhile, three people who had received a Medigen dose have died, said Centers for Disease Control Deputy Director-General Zhuang Renxiang, the CECC’s spokesman.
A man in his 40s who had diabetes and weighed more than 120kg received the vaccine on Monday and fainted at work yesterday, Chuang said.
Zhuang said, "An automated external defibrillator was used on site, but the man died before arriving at a hospital."
He added, "A woman in her 40s who received the vaccine on Tuesday reported chest tightness, and numbness in her feet and hands that afternoon."
She was taken to National University Hospital’s emergency room, where a computerized tomography scan showed a serious aortic dissection that had led to blood accumulation in the pericardium, he said.
He said, "She died that evening."
A man in his 30s, who did not have underlying health conditions but had a record of illegal drug use, received the vaccine on Monday and died before arriving at a hospital on Tuesday afternoon.
Family members said that they saw the man injecting drugs in the morning.
