    If they'd actually be honest and would really like to find out how a socialist country is/would be dealing with this she could have just looked a bit to the south from her office and compare the US to what Cuba has already done or has planned for its vaccine rollout, but I guess that would never be allowed to leave the editors office anyways.

    But no can't do that gotta manufacture some consent over here. Journalism my ass.

      what Cuba has already done or has planned for its vaccine rollout,

      I was reading about the Cuban vaccination development so far , and their main issue is finding people to test what is being developed, as the COVID incidence rate is too low in the country to ensure the best testing conditions lol... what a problem to have:

      MEDICC Review: Will Phase III trials be conducted in Cuba?

      Dagmar García: Phase III clinical trials involve thousands of people and while Cuba has a very willing population, anxious to volunteer, we probably don’t have the necessary COVID-19 incidence rate in our country to conduct trials of this scale.

      While it is still too early to define where, when and how we would conduct these trials since this depends on the evolution of current clinical research, I can say unequivocally that if we need to go to another country to conduct Phase III trials, we will. Cuba has options for where that might be and all regulatory requirements of that country or those countries will be met to conduct those trials—with SOBERANA 01 or any other vaccine candidate.

      :fidel-layup:

        This reminds me, I have earlier today read an article on Cuba’s vaccination strategies and they said that for that exact reason:

        That’s why Sovereign II will be tested in Iran.
