China is "uniquely at risk" to omicron, Osterholm said, for a combination of reasons: Early studies suggest its Sinovac and Sinopharm vaccines are "not very effective" against the variant, and at the same time China's success at preventing the spread of Covid so far means it has a very large population that remains vulnerable.
Yeah exactly that. Plus China's healthcare hasn't spent the last year and a half permanently stretched to breaking point. They prob have capacity, personnel and medical reserves the west simply hasn't.
This entire article kinda feels like watching someone shit their pants and getting all triumphant cos some of the shit might hypothetically hit some other guy next time it happens.
