Is Sinovac an Inactivated vaccine?

Question

I am reading types of vaccines, but I wanted to know if the China Brand Covid 19 vaccine is an inactivated or live attenuated vaccine?

Answer 1

I also wondered because there is no news about Sinovac as a booster vaccine in my country lately. I guess we need to be vigilant in looking for the right answers about this.

Answer 2

Yes, Sinovac is an inactivated vaccine that uses killed viral particles to stimulate an immune response and protect against COVID-19.

Answer 3

Sinovac is an inactivated vaccine. Inactivated vaccines use killed versions of the virus to help the body build immunity, while live attenuated vaccines use weakened versions of the virus to help the body build immunity.
