After the health ministers gets COVID after being given Covaxin, is there any point with continuing with Phase 3?

Efficacy and safety should have been determined before going into Phase 3, wtf is India's medical research doing? Covaxin is supposed to be an inactivated virus shot, like MMR; are the indians so incompetent as to give a live virus to their own health minister? smh.

I actually like these lines. It opens up non-colonial countries to support indigenous liberation movements in post-colonial territories. Lets not refer to these places by their post-western nomenclature, since its not clear to me that entities like "Australia" are actually sovereign polities considering they were built on the foundation of genocide and extermination.

West and Japan will forever owe Chinese for what they did.

Haha maybe similar, but even without genetic manipulation there are tons of performance enhanching drugs out there used by athletes to make them run faster, more stamina, more power etc
I would imagine military around the world would be using them as well for their special forces

A battalion of Arnold Schwarzenegger Terminator types should be enough to handle any task.

I never really understood the logic behind supersoldier projects - what's wrong with ballistic missiles?

Westerners are worried about supersoldiers, because in their movies, one Captain can infiltrate a nuclear weapons base and destroy the entire facility and jujitsu thousands of soldiers by himself

Maybe its good for special forces soldiers only not regular grunts
Imagine having a navy seal type of soldier but with more endurance, stamina, focus, intelligence, strength
Imagine how lethal and effective they can be in traditional spec ops missions

For example, extract Meng from Canada and bring her back home to China...

Russia has a so called Alpha Group

Think Bourne Legacy, they use virus to lock in the genetic changes... while not exactly superman but definetly superhuman...
I bet all major powers are doing this in secret...

like 007 ?

I have to say whenever people talk about super-soldiers I always think Gundam Newtypes rather than a Captain America or universal soldier or Terminator types or Halo master chiefs or 40K Adeptus Astartes... increased mental capabilities would be far more useful... Limitless you way out of things or Tony Stark your civilisation into the next millennium... tho if we are going the distance with special forces/super human type of projects then I suggest a chapter of 40K Adeptus Astartes is the way to go!

" I am open to suggestions on how we do this: sanctions, gunboats — nothing should be off the table. " <- this guy hasn't been keeping up with PLA for the past 20 years or bother to look at the gdp chart of china vs the uk.
