What a horrible comment. This kind of bigotry should not be here.

  I don't think that's simple bigotry. China made several 'traditional' vaccines instead of using mRNA technology like Sinovac. They have significantly lower effectivity numbers from what I've seen (~60% vs. ~90%). On the plus side, I think they also have fewer side effects. That said, it's worth clarifying that their lesser effectivity comes from technological differences, not merely from being Chinese in origin. I think it's more helpful to clarify that point than to discuss motives because it's true that some of the vaccines that happen to be Chinese in origin are provably less effective according to published studies, it's just not true that their Chinese origin is in any way causing this difference.

    > China made several 'traditional' vaccines instead of using mRNA technology like Sinovac. What? Pfizer and Moderna are the ones that use mRNA. CoronaVac is an inactivated vaccine, which is the traditional method of vaccine.

  It’s not bigotry. The Chinese people are lovely. The Chinese government is a brutal, dishonest regime that makes shitty vaccines.
