What does that have to do with anything? The vaccine has poor efficacy against the variant. The data proves this. How much the variant had spread at the time the study was conducted is completely irrelevant unless the control group was too small or the study was flawed somehow.
> Sinovac still offers considerable protect
Define “considerable”? In a population so large, you will want highly effective vaccines because more room for failure will result in larger numbers of people becoming severely infected leading to the hospital system falling over much faster.
Nothing China has done has been sensible or smart. Everything they have done, since the beginning of the pandemic which they fucking started, has been either inept, self centred or down right malicious.

Sinovac is basically useless against Omicron on its own https://yaledailynews.com/blog/2022/02/03/sinovac-vaccine-efficacy-against-omicron-increases-following-mrna-booster-yale-study-finds/
> none of the patients in the study produced neutralizing antibodies against the Omicron variant

Thanks for the clarification, but the point stands that India accepted outside help and was able to get their population vaccinated with a much better vaccine than China. India also had its own homegrown mRNA vaccine now ahead of China so there’s that.

Do you remember when the majority of Reddit users lived in countries where vaccine efficacy and distribution were handled well? How about when India was able to properly vaccinate their people with mRNA vaccines? Do you also remember that China refused to admit their vaccines were trash while simultaneously refusing to accept mRNA vaccines from the west even when offered and then stupidly lifted all restrictions after brainwashing their population into fearing the virus because of their own horrible policies, hubris and overall retardation?
Cause I do.
And now they want to infect the world again with variants that have thrived due to this stupidity?
Yeah, fuck right off please.

That is simply an ass saving statement to state that “although there is data, we are not saying this is 100% true all the time”.
HKU also did a study providing similar outcomes https://www.hku.hk/press/press-releases/detail/23740.html
> Everything China does is wrong
I mean, even from a completely neutral point of view, it’s pretty hard to not see this as absolute truth when related to this pandemic.
What have they done right? Let’s list all the things they’ve done wrong and see if you can match them with positives
It goes on and on. There are so many, I don’t have time to list them all. China should be harshly dealt with through the insourcing of manufacturing and crippling sanctions to force regime change. There is no hope for peaceful coexistence with the CCP / China under Xi.
