The china virus vaccines all come in multi-dose vials. Nobody is saying to reuse needles or syringes. Each dose is drawn with a new, sterile syringe and needle from the multi-dose vial, using an aseptic technique. There is almost always left over doses during a clinic unless everyone shows up, is eligible to receive the vaccine, and they schedule the exact number of people to cover the exact amount of doses on hand. They are saying that those doses need to be given to someone and not wasted. This wouldn't have been an issue if the manufactures would have issued single dose vials. But that would have taken a greater amount of time in manufacturing and created a greater logistical nightmare than there already was due to the deep cold storage requirements for the Pfizer vaccine.
