Where is that Harry?
If you are uncomfortable in answering my question tell me to fuck off!
Here we go again fukos,
If ya not arguing about religion or politics you plebs are arguing about whether Covid is real or just made up by some kunta with a nasty sense of humor.
But hey,
i recon if ya front up to all the hospitals in Bangkok who are ramed full with Covid patients and ask them what they reckon about this debate they may just be able to provide the answer.
Anyway Bitches, you lot have a lovely day eh.
Chat later innit.
I'd be a shade cautious about how good those Chinese vaccines really are. Mongolia used Sinopharm and cases are all over the place. That said, there has not been a huge surge in daily deaths, it's always been under 15 a day. So perhaps it does stop people becoming deathly ill. The issue is that they want everyone to go to hospital, so the system is totally overwhelmed. Good luck and stay healthy, safe and sane folks.
If Chinese vaccines are so bad, whats happening to the Chinese population regarding Covid?
Maybe more to the point, how many of these posters who know nobody who's caught COVID will not be taking the vaccine?
Chico...LoyTwat...Fondles?
hallelulah was being very vocal about how it was all a fuss over nothing a couple of weeks ago, but now says he'll be onto the vaccine faster than Joe 90 gets onto a bottle of gut rot Brandy.
Lockdowns at gunpoint and a mad rush to develop a proper vaccine.
BEIJING (AP) — China’s top disease control official, in a rare acknowledgement, said current vaccines offer low protection against the coronavirus and mixing them is among strategies being considered to boost their effectiveness.
China has distributed hundreds of millions of doses of domestically made vaccines abroad and is relying on them for its own mass immunization campaign.
But the director of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, Gao Fu, said at a conference Saturday their efficacy rates needed improving.
“We will solve the issue that current vaccines don’t have very high protection rates,” Gao said in a presentation on Chinese COVID-19 vaccines and immunization strategies at a conference in the southwestern city of Chengdu. “It’s now under consideration whether we should use different vaccines from different technical lines for the immunization process.”
He also praised the benefits of mRNA vaccines, the technology behind the two vaccines seen as the most effective, Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna, months after questioning whether the then-unproven method was safe.
In a message to The Associated Press, Gao said late Sunday night he was speaking about the effectiveness rates for “vaccines in the world, not particularly for China.” He did not respond to further questions about which vaccines he was referring to.
He directed the AP to an interview he did with the state-owned Global Times, which has published several articles raising doubts about the safety of Pfizer’s mRNA vaccine. Gao was quoted by the outlet Sunday as saying he was misunderstood and merely talking in general terms about improving vaccine efficacy.
Beijing earlier tried to promote doubt about the effectiveness of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, which uses genetic code called messenger RNA, or mRNA, to prime the immune system.
Health officials at a news conference Sunday didn’t respond directly to questions about Gao’s comment or about possible changes in official plans. But another CDC official said Chinese developers are working on mRNA-based vaccines.
“The mRNA vaccines developed in our country have also entered the clinical trial stage,” said the official, Wang Huaqing. He gave no timeline for possible use.
Experts say mixing vaccines, or sequential immunization, might boost effectiveness. Researchers in Britain are studying a possible combination of Pfizer-BioNTech and the AstraZeneca vaccine.
Gao concluded his presentation Saturday with praise for mRNA vaccines and called for innovation in research.
“Everyone should consider the benefits mRNA vaccines can bring for humanity,” Gao said. “We must follow it carefully and not ignore it just because we already have several types of vaccines already.”
