For New York Times, everything is geopolitics, including vaccine supply of course. On the other hand, karma is a bitch. Trump administration's reward for Ukraine government's blocking of the sale of Motor Sich to China is to ban vaccine sell to Ukraine.

In Vaccine Geopolitics, a Great Game Played With Ukrainians’ Health​

Blocked from obtaining vaccines from the United States, its putative ally, and taunted in Russian propaganda, Ukraine turned to China.

First, talks with Pfizer and other Western vaccine makers to obtain early shipments collapsed after the Trump administration banned vaccine exports. Now, unless the incoming Biden administration steps in, the earliest commercial purchases of Western vaccines will not be delivered before late 2021.

Not surprisingly, Ukraine’s plight has caught the eye of Russia’s state-controlled news outlets, which have highlighted the failure of Ukraine’s Western allies to step up in a moment of need — and offering Russia’s vaccine as an alternative.

Ukraine’s leaders, who have raised worries about the safety and efficacy of the Russian vaccine and would, in any event, almost literally die before accepting help from Russia, their blood enemy, turned to China, buying its first vaccine in a hurried negotiation in the final two weeks of December.

In late December, Ukraine hastened talks with Sinovac Biotech, a Chinese supplier, announcing on New Year’s Eve an order for 1.9 million doses, for delivery in early February. That is hardly enough, but still a geopolitical victory for China, providing a measure of relief when Western countries have looked the other way.

Finally, we have this idiotic self-alleged "lawyer" masquerading as a COVID-19 expert and making such outlandishly stupid claims and anti-China conspiracy theories in the face of such overwhelming evidence and professional opinions to the contrary. It would have been comic if so many people had not died.

The longer they continue to be in denial, the more time China has to pull ahead and prepare for their bullshittery later.

China must go on for at least another 10 years without war.

With all these new COVID mutations and political turmoil, we just might make it. Sucks to be taiwan traitor.

CNN should spend more time reporting the desperation in LA instead of trying to discredit China.

Some bus driver in beijing got it, hope he was wearing mask correctly.

Colder parts of china must remain vigilant. It’s record cold right now and the virus might last like a week on surfaces.


The celebrations were fine, but I really hope people don’t get too relaxed because of the initial victory.

AP is again pushing fictional story-telling bullshit. Even they know it is bullshit when they keep hiding the author's name.

Has Huawei’s HarmonyOS launches yet? If so, they really need to add Parler on there.

I would lol so hard if Huawei became the new bastion of free speech for Trump and Trump supports because of Trump forcing it to dump American tech and IP, which would make them the only major platform that cannot be controlled by Washington in its current deplatforming crusade against Trump.

I search Play Store on my OPPO phone for Parler, not found! Further, I search for Parler's website on desktop computer, found it but cannot access it. Is it behind the Great Firewall?

No, worse than that, they have been booted from the internet. Their ISP provider has deplatformed them. This is why America doesn’t need a firewall, they can literally delete anything they don’t like from the entire internet.
