North Korea is continuously claiming that it has no case of Kovid-19.

Now he has also turned down the offer of a vaccine considered important in protecting against Kovid.

North Korea, led by Kim Jong-un, has recently turned down such an offer from Russia.

Pyongyang : The COVID-19 pandemic has spread globally. There is hardly any country left in the world, where this disease has not knocked. But North Korea is constantly claiming that it is still untouched by this disease. To avoid the disease, he has also sealed his border for the last one and a half years and has even turned down offers from many countries regarding the Kovid vaccine.

Russia’s offer also turned down

There were also many reports of food crisis in North Korea due to border sealing and many other reasons, in view of which many countries including Russia have offered vaccine to it, but North Korea is not ready to open its borders. And in order to keep the virus out, he is rejecting all such proposals. It has also recently rejected such an offer from Russia.

North Korea’s trade with China has also been affected due to the border seal, while North Korea is mainly dependent on China for food, fertilizer and fuel. North Korea’s top leader Kim Jong-un told the country’s people only last month to be prepared for “serious consequences”. He also acknowledged the food crisis and the tense situation in North Korea.

What is the fear of North Korea?

International experts believe that a major reason behind refusing the vaccine offer is North Korea’s fear of coming in and monitoring it through vaccination. There is also a hesitation among the people of North Korea about the vaccine and the lack of facilities such as refrigeration and transportation related arrangements.

It is worth mentioning here that North Korea submitted a report to the World Health Organization only last month, saying that it has examined more than 30,000 people for corona virus infection till June 10, but not a single case of infection has been reported in the country yet. has come. However, experts have been skeptical of this given North Korea’s border with China and its average health infrastructure here.
