Reports by Chinese state media that all Chinese Communist Party (CCP) leaders received domestic vaccines has met with disbelief among Chinese internet users.

According to a July 23 report by Xinhua News Agency, the deputy director of China’s National Health Commission, Zeng Yixin, declared at a press conference that “current Party and state leaders” had all been vaccinated to protect themselves against COVID-19, and that they had received only domestic vaccines.
