(Beijing) The world is currently rolling out vaccines to combat the COVID epidemic which spread out from China at the start of last year.
The countries which funded research into vaccines are the ones who are in the lead regards vaccinating their populations, this has lead to the usual suspects opining that this is a form of racism and that rich countries who can afford vaccines should be handing over vaccines to poor countries before vaccinating their entire populations we saw this with Israel being berated for not vaccinating the West bank and Gaza which have their own governments, we saw it with the UK when the new leader of the WTO demanded that the UK diverts its vaccines to poorer countries rather than vaccinate its own. leaving out that the UK has seen the worst death rate across Europe (122K as of 02/03/21)
There is also a demand that the US (which has the worst death rate in the world) to hand over vaccines to Mexico. Well it appears that China is cashing in, by offering batches of their own C19 vaccine to countries around the world , no doubt to gain future leverage on the political playground also known as the UN . Whilst everybody bar the UK and Israel are having issues getting their hands on enough vaccines, China has been sending plane loads of their own vaccine around the world
There's quite a few more, I simply cant be asked to chase them down, but they are there if you follow the thread on the Chinese media I have link in. Expect China to win quite a few UN votes, WHO would have guessed?
