just read where the DR has ordered 200,000 plus vaccines from china that are listed as 50% effected ? that means 1 out of 2 will catch it? also this is where it started in china and they are gonna use a vaccine from there ?
it all goes back to the fact " ya can,t fix stupid"

50 % " Effective" or 50% " Infected " ... that is the question ..

You are dealing with a people who served Cooked CARDBOARD as FOOD at the Beijing Olympics
and Sold us Lead Paint Toys , even after being Instructed multiple times to NOT do it any more.

and lets not forget the Deadly Dog Food ,

so what could possibly go wrong here with a rushed 50 % Vaccine.

I would prefer the old French way with the guillotine.
Walking around with someone's head on a stick speaks volumes for why you shouldn't do business with the people that caused the chaos in the first place.
Trust me 1 head on 1 stick will get noticed. Big time.

Given the amount of pain and suffering this China virus has caused the people down here,
The Government Officials responsible for negotiating this deal should all be tossed in jail for treason.
Did you forget the other charges: bribery, attempted murder and rape.

50% efficacy clearly does not justify the use of this vaccine nor any risks associated with taking it. A vaccine with 70% efficacy is only marginally better and still leaves a gaping shortfall in protection if one is exposed to this virus. A safe 70% is better than 50% and much better than no protection at all. The Chinese vaccine is a nonstarter for me - fails the risk benefit analysis soundly at this point. Even if you ask you may not be told what you are being injected with. Whatever it is will probably be the only option on the day you go to get the jab at any given location.

Yes 50% effective...lets see... If about 7 million people in the DR get the jab, that means about 3.5 million are immune.... and you need about 80% immune to stop it...Sooo maybe wont even slow it down... was thinking about when we see guys on the street selling vaccine... you know like ther guys in Sosua... hey you want some viagra, weed , pretty chicas, or vaccine?

NO VACCINE MAKES YOU " Immune"..... you can still catch it , and even give it to others .

It only lessens the Impact ..

Only Antibodies give you IMMUNITY...
So you have to CATCH IT . and then develop Antibodies .
this is Medical Science 101

Not sure what kind of medical experts some of you people are Listening to .. but whoever is feeding you this Garbage about a Vaccine with IMMUNITY is a complete IDIOT ..

You're almost right. The vaccine is supposed to make you immune from the disease. In this case it's called Covid-19. It doesn't make you immune from the virus which is called SARS-COV-2, meaning you can still catch and spread it, but your chances of getting sick are lessened if you've been vaccinated. The vaccine instructs your body to make those antibodies.

Your medical science 101 is slightly flawed, but you're on the right track.
