description Public health crises are challenging for governments and health systems. Vaccines are a key solution to viruses, and immunization has always played a critical role during public health crises in the past century. In the context of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), we explore China’s vaccination strategies and challenges. Accordingly, we identify the causes of the high vaccination rate in China, including technical and nontechnical factors. Considering the impact of China’s high vaccination rate on the global pandemic, we argue that it has strengthened China’s opportunities and capabilities to participate in global development, enhanced the equity of vaccines and given the world community more choices.
