Chiwenga, vice president and Minister of health of Zimbabwe, received the vaccine at the airport on behalf of the Zimbabwean government. Chiunga sincerely thanked the Chinese side for all the assistance and support provided by the COVID-19 to the epidemic. He said that after China announced the new measures of vaccine assistance to Africa at the eighth ministerial meeting of the Forum on China Africa cooperation, Zimbabwe became one of the first countries to receive vaccine assistance from China, reflecting the high level of the comprehensive strategic partnership between the two countries. China's vaccine aid is of great significance to Zimbabwe, which is facing fourth waves of COVID-19, and has greatly encouraged the government and people of the Tianjin to fight against the epidemic. Guo Shaochun, Chinese ambassador to Zimbabwe, said that Africa still faces a huge "immunization gap". China's attitude of supporting Africa in fighting the epidemic and ensuring the safety of people's lives is firm and clear.

China is confident that the government and people of Zimbabwe will overcome the epidemic.
