mommysboy Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 It's a humble but useful vaccine. What I like about it is that it uses the conventional methods used for established vaccines. What I don't like it is that it has not been through western trials and is not so effective. If it can be established as being safe I would prefer it the mRNA and vector vaccines. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only Sinovac seems to be available.. Yeah not hear anything anymore from those 10-20 million Pfizer, and mass Sputnik order. Only the worst vaccine available in the world they want more and more as the Co owners is 20% by Thai family from CENTRAL. Medipharm the other Chinese vaccine is much much better and high protection. But zero interested in that one. Brown envelopes not thick enough there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this statement in some way a boast about haw the CCP are aiding the rest of the World. A World they turned inside out with their Corona Virus outbreak, a World that has seen so much misery inflicted by this Virus. Sick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how you define "Western" but Phase III Trials were done in Turkey and Brazil among other countries and the investigators and reviewers included western scientists. People seem to assume that because it is of Chinese manufacture all the research was done in China/by Chinese researchers. Not at all the case. It has been established as safe for people under 60 without major chronic health problems. There is still insufficient data on the over 60s and those with serious underlying conditions. The Phase III trials either did nto include enough people in those groups or failed to disaggregate the data. This does not mean it is unsafe for those groups, just that the data is lacking. With 32 countries now using it, mire data on real woirl effectiveness is coming in all the time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only Sinovac seems to be available.. Very limited amount of Astra Zeneca available now, 61 million doses are on order of which 6 million of them due at beginning of June. It has always been planned for AZ to be the mainstay of the program, but Thailand opted to produce it locally which takes considerable time. When the outbreak started surging, and China stepped forward with offer to supply Sinovac fast, and it is what is being used in Phase I (health workers and hot spots). Phase II will use mainly AZ. Phase III will likely be mix, depending ion how fast the AZ production is. Pfizer is not yet approved for use in Thailand and not on order (approval in any case has to come first). Sputnik procurement is supposedly in the works but timetable unclear https://www.thaipbsworld.com/tag/sputnik-v/ Moderna has only this past week been approved and while procurement is planned orders do nto yet seem to have been placed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bangon04 Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 "He added that China has donated vaccines to 80 countries and has exported them to 50 developing countries, to help increase their access to them." Yes he is right. It is important for the CCP to increase their "access" to the developing countries by whatever means of leverage they can devise. They will collect the gratitude later.....
