As somebody else pointed out, they have the support of most middle eastern GOVERNMENTS, which is a different thing.

quote:

Hong Kong health authorities on Tuesday night revealed that they were investigating the death of a chronically ill man two days after he received China’s Sinovac Covid-19 vaccine, but cautioned that no connection had been ascertained yet.

The Department of Health said the 63-year-old man had received the shot on February 26 at Kwun Chung Sports Centre in Jordan, one of the government’s designated vaccination sites.

He was sent to Queen Elizabeth Hospital on February 28 after suffering shortness of breath.

A source said the man had suffered a cardiac arrest soon after he was admitted, and died on the same day after failed resuscitation attempts.

“At the moment, the causal relationship with the vaccination cannot be ascertained,” the department said in a late-night statement, adding that it was seeking more information from the Hospital Authority.

Old man has heart attack? not sure why that is news besides the antivax stirring pot. The Sinovac vaccine is less effective than the current western ones, but it does work and is as safe as they are - as you'd expect from the technology base of chinese pharma.

Given the size and the scale of the protests following the reveal of the Abu Ghraib prison abuse and the rumor of a Quran being destroyed, I think the response of the people in the middle east is a bit more *tisk tisk* than any severe concern.

Unless they're just being completely ignored by any English language media I can find. Which is also entirely possible. IF you could point any my way, I'd appreciate it. Best I could find was about protests in the middle east about Chinese oil drilling contracts.

It helps muddy the waters. Tankies and the 50 cent army will latch onto it as more "evidence" that China isn't engaging in genocide.

Yes, but those governments don't like the US, therefore they can absolutely be trusted when it comes to matters of human rights abuses.

Yeah, it's old news in the sense that Fojar and I stopped mentioning it a decade ago as all the China Thread regulars have heard it a million times.

To add to the doom and gloom, China's going to be double->turbo hosed as declining usable topsoil and fresh water is coming home to roost, thus affecting food production. If China survives to the end of this century, rising oceans are going to hyper gently caress their costal cities and ports. Add to this their current policies of pissing off everyone in the world, and you're going to be hard pressed to find many nations willing to help out.

I'd put money on the Kim dynasty in North Korea outliving the CCP.

the one child policy means there is a gargantuan generation where 4 old people are supported by no more than 2 young people, bad demographics.

there is the looming / burning ecological catastrophe of how they've poisoned their lands

the looming securities/ stock/ investment catastrophe since their securities markets are in a large part just government fiction

if the chinese coronavirus SARS-2 wasn't the looming pandemic disease catastrophe then another one will happen again because of their criminal negligence about things like disease-breeding 'wet markets' and broader dark-ages / primitive / supernatural ideas about medicine and health

and the cherry on top is that they are murderous genocidal communist despicable evil totalitarian regime, and none of those have lasted forever.
