Chinese vaccine bombs in Brazil – With insights from The Wall Street Journal

As the Ramaphosa Administration scurries to secure Covid-19 vaccines, here's an important development to take note of: SA's BRICS partner China is NOT likely to be a credible supplier. Facts stated in the piece below bothered me – none more so than the World Health Organisation's practice of approving vaccines which are merely 50% effective. How bizarre? So you get vaccinated, believe you're protected, but are actually even-money to get sick anyway. Also disturbing is how the Brazilian government's institute which tested the Chinese vaccine's efficacy blatantly manipulated results to engineer a 78% success ratio. That was only corrected to 50% after other scientists challenged the process. Another excellent contribution from our partners at The Wall Street Journal.
