I wonder if this will be the only shipment of the Pfizer vaccine and will it be more widespread.Pfizer is one that is accepted in Canada and makes more sense than getting one that is not on their list.

This vaccine will be available only for 12 to 18 year old teenagers, for now. Who knows, maybe later on for general population as well. But for now, it's for teens only.

Precisely the age group that doesnt need it or its been tested sufficiently on. Give the 50% efficacy crap from china to the adults and the 95% efficacy to kids???

A senior DR1er in Santiago, who I know well, also received the Pfizer vaccine.

I spoke with a friend in SD and he also got a Pfizer shot. I read yesterday a government official saying as well that Pfizers were open to anyone from general population. If shots combination was supported as is in Germany or UK for example, I would get my second from Pfizer. But I guess tough luck on that,

Three friends report they have run out of Pfizer in SD already. Telling people to come back next week. Everyone is saying there are massive queues and huge demand

There are news reports that they were applying for a vaccine patent BEFORE the outbreak. This is why the lab leak is the most probable. But like everything china does,,they could only get it 50% right without stealing the tech from USA

Underestimating and humiliating your opponent is not a good strategy.
US pop. about 333 million corona deaths 600,763
China pop. about 1.444,216,107 corona deaths 4,846

And yet Pfizer is one of the best mRND vaccines available, also against deviants.

Chinas bio med labs are working.
Their industry is building.
If you have any intelligence, you should be afraid rather than making them out to be bumbling idiots.

China’s Biotech Boom Could Transform Lives—or Destroy Them​


Washington and Beijing have a shared interest in making sure new technology stays within limits.​


If you want to conduct groundbreaking but contentious biological research, go to China. Last year, Chinese scientist He Jiankui announced he had created the world's first gene-edited human babies, shocking the world at a time when such practice is illegal in most leading scientific nations. More recently, US-based researcher Juan Carlos Izpisua Belmonte revealed he had produced the world's first human-monkey hybrid embryo in China to avoid legal issues in his adopted country.

Who said I was underestimating.. Their ability to steal tech is unapparelled in modern history. They created a virus and tried to create a vaccine and could not do a good job. They are still trying to steal the Phizer tech.
The carrier you show is Russian and everything is a US copy

What a joke... You believe their number./.. They are COMMUNISTS.... COMMUNISTS LIE... They locked people inside their apartments.. Deaths were way understated... I am glad you think St Fauchi of DC did a good thing by funding their gain of function research

As if industrial espionage is only a Chinese domain.
Precisely, as no-one knows what goes on in their bio-medical labs with government subsidies and no oversight,
You should be afraid.
Then again, we also don't know what goes on in secret US or Russian bio labs or military labs.

They must be very good at copying at

China’s newest aircraft carrier, Type 001A Shandong (Hull 17), is conducting sea trials at a time Beijing’s military leadership criticizes the pace and scope of U.S. Navy operations in the region.

Shandong departed the Dalian Shipyard on May 25 to test the ship’s weapons and equipment, to train crew members and enhance the carrier’s ability to conduct missions, Senior Col. Ren Guoqiang, a spokesman for China’s Ministry of National Defense, confirmed on Friday during a media briefing.
