China already have MRNA tech, but I think they are very concerned about anything genetically modified. China does not allow GMO food crops until today.

Some side-by-side information on how many critically ill patients there are in Shanghai. Xi'an assisted 20,000 ml of recovery plasma to Jilin for COVID patients, while 33,800 ml were assisted to Shanghai.

Vice Premier Sun was caught posing in Shanghai, but of course this must have been the evil Shanghai government cheating on her!
I received my government gift bag on April 15 with a pineapple at the bottom, and it was very sweet.
The gift pack I received on April 17 had soy sauce and paper, which was very thoughtful.
My dinner yesterday, 180 RMB worth of KFC, which normally should be 100 RMB at most. Interestingly it came with not Pepsi but Coca-Cola, so maybe there is still some problem with the logistics.
I also received a gift bag yesterday but I didn't take a picture. I don't know if it's a good thing that I still receive gift bags because I read on Twitter that some districts without cases are starting to have restaurants open. They can eat roasted lamb run by Uyghurs!!! I'm really craving something heavy with cumin and chili right now.

How are forced lockdowns more viable than forced vaccinations? You should do both if you are serious about saving lives.
Two countries mandating forced vaccinations. China should be the third! Vaccines are proven to save lives.

Just to be clear, I didn't include the age groups of <3 and 3-11 because of the lack of data for Pfizer.
What? What are you even trying to say man. Posing? Is that supposed to be illegal or hypocritical for that person in authority to do?
If you forced elderly to vaccinate especially those with long-term diseases, then you would expect their relatives to blame the government if these elderly passed away within months of vaccination. China has a lot of issues deal with such blame game and demand for compensation from relatives of deceased trying to extort money from hospitals.
Besides, many provinces have reach or close to 90% vaccination rate already. It is just a few such as Shanghai has a low vaccination rate. It just takes time to do it and more time to get them boosted. That's why I say China needs at least another six months to meet the minimum requirements for reopen.
Looks personally l am not against forced vaccination as if 100% of elderly vaccinated and boosted, then we should have lower mortality rate than 0.09%. But it is a very controversial issue that goes beyond a lock down of few weeks.
That is true. Chinese government is generally very conservative when it comes to food and medicine.
However, the two early mRNA candidates also didn't perform as well and needs more works. And I don't think China has totally ruled out mRNA as it has encouraged more firms to develop such vaccines.

For the 0% chance of death post-vaccine (according to Chinese RCT data), compared to 20% chance of death post-COVID infection if you are elderly comorbid, then choice is no brainer. Give exemptions for special cases (e.g., allergy to COVID vaccine), but the majority of 10% unvaxxed population, they are not special cases, they are voluntarily avoiding vaccination based on beliefs/attitudes/knowledge deficits. Strict lockdowns need to be accompanied by strict vaccination (with exemptions for special cases).
