SEOUL, December 1
China has provided North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and his family with an experimental Covid vaccine, a US analyst said on Tuesday, citing two unidentified Japanese intelligence sources.
Harry Kazianis, a North Korea expert at the Centre for the National Interest think tank in Washington, said the Kims and several senior officials had been vaccinated. It was unclear which company had supplied its drug candidate to the Kims and whether it was safe, he added. — Reuters
