Over 300,000 tablets exported to China as CEN is now collecting clues for heroes who made it possible
Ad

An article, “Pakistan has effective drug for COVID-19, Over 300,000 pieces exported to China”, published by Economic Daily – China Economic Net (CEN) on February 21st has got 5.71 million page views on Toutiao.com and 38,000 likes.

In nearly 10,000 comments, in addition to a lot of thanks to Pakistani friends for their help, some netizens were interested in the “multinational enterprise” mentioned in the CEN reporter’s article and wanted to know the hero behind the scenes who urgently dispensed the effective drugs at a Bayer subsidiary in Pakistan.



On February 20th, after noticing that the official Weibo account of Bayer China said it had made an emergency deployment of chloroquine phosphate tablets in Pakistan at the beginning of this month, CEN reporter quickly contacted to verify the matter.

The official Weibo account of Bayer China confirmed the news and said that the batch of medicines was completed in 24 hours. 200,000 of the 300,000 tablets were “sold” to Guangzhou Pharmaceutical Holdings Limited (GPHL) at zero yuan. Earlier, Economic Daily reported that on February 5th, GPHL first purchased 15,000 tablets of chloroquine phosphate in Pakistan through various channels, and then purchased another 200,000 tablets. The drugs arrived in Guangzhou at 7:00 p.m. on February 8th.

It took less than 4 days from purchasing in Pakistan to arriving in Guangzhou. In addition to the international and domestic airline time, it is not easy for Pakistan, a country with less developed transport infrastructure that is suffering from severe locust plague, to urgently collect, transport and cooperate to undertake the fastest international rescue for dispensing the effective drugs to treat COVID-19. It reminds people of “For 61 Brothers” in Chinese textbook.


CEN reporter learned from further interviews that chloroquine phosphate production was suspended in China for 20 years. In order to deliver the first batch of effective drugs successfully, from February 5th to 8th, in addition to GPHL and Bayer, there are many more heroes behind the scenes, such as China Southern Airlines and Urumqi Customs CEN is now collecting clues. What other heroes behind the scenes in both China and Pakistan are contributing quietly for this? If any information, please contact us!

Thats a great news if true. Well done.

However for a positive impact, I think they should first bring their citizens back home.

Like the saying...

Why are you ignoring thousands of pilgrims, we brought back from Iran in past few weeks?
Is that not enough charity we dispensed to pilgrims to Iran?

To be honest. Its really a great noble task.
No doubt.

But, my point was if you have a medicine, shouldnt your own people be the firat in line to get benifited ?

It's still in experiment phase. Plus it's much better to test it where there are cases, rather then bringing case into Pakistan.

Given the situation pilgrims /fighters visiting/transiting Iran are welcome to Pakistan, but students in China not, only suggest political bias, not lack of capacity to quarantine and treat, dozen scholars.

It's obvious, naya Pakistan can't afford to have youth doing comparison of previous punjab CM with current one!

Man all the khota has really damaged your brain. You are lost cause. As are all your offsprings.

Well, why can we have this kind if language as the standard of PDF.

There is always something to.learn from the old members of PDF.

Actually youngsters who read such and are gradually mentored to vent their expression while still maintaing a decorum that ultimately ..fairly impacts their over all communication in the real world as well.

Maintain some sense of respect yaar. Disagree to his POV, but stay away from.words which will never help your cause.

So you're not actually congratulating Pakistan at all but instead promoting the common trope among Indian pseudo-experts that bringing thousands of citizens out of the ground zero area of an active epidemic outbreak is a good idea?

South Korea, Iran, Italy - all succumbed to major outbreaks this week.

Must be hard for Indians that by virtue of its containment policies, Pakistan has successfully avoided any infections to date....

Like the saying....

A bitter pill to swallow.

Chloroquine has been in clinical use for about 70 years now as a first-line anti malarial drug, and the parent alkaloid quinine derived from Cinchona for hundreds of years. For China not to have an adequate stock of such a basic drug in their inventory is quite baffling. Either their stock of Chloroquine has run out or the prevalence rate of malaria there must have come to near zero levels. Have to check up on it.

Anyway, there are two more antiviral drugs Remdesivir and Favilavir belonging to NARTIs which have shown better prospects in clinical trials.

You don't understand that quarantine is simply one part of a public health solution to such a problem. Quarantine itself is imperfect.

In USA, not only was an evacuee positive for ncov, but she was also erroneously released due to human error.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.ny...diego-coronavirus-patient.amp.html?0p19G=3248

Plenty of infected individuals are present among returning/evacuated populations, whether entering quarantine system or not.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna1137616

Not sure what you're smoking, but the returning population is a RISKY POPULATION. it is as simple as that.

Plenty of evidence is out there that incubation period is longer than the 14 days WHO standard for quarantine.

So as I said, quarantine is an imperfect solution.
