Vaccination Update: China administered close to 12 million vaccine doses Friday,

(to be precise, 11.6 million vaccinations). The per-capita daily vaccination rate has now caught up to the US. If China's daily average vaccination rate holds steady at ~12 million doses per day from now until the end of June, the national vaccination rate could hit ~50% then, and achieve herd immunity by Late August/Early September.

If India were to request 100 million vaccines doses from China, I think China should sell them to India.
If delivered over a month, that is only 25% of total production capacity in China. And production in China is still ramping up.
Plus China is still at zero cases per day.

That's at least 50 million people in India, who will personally know they have received a Chinese vaccine.
It's much harder to be anti-China in such a situation. And the politicians will really understand there is no alternative to China in many situations.
Plus we can't have an uncontrolled outbreak in India creating even more COVID variants.

But of course, would Modi swallow his pride and ever make such a request?

100 million vaccines are useless for India. Right now they have to contain the virus and prevent patients from dying enmasse, something vaccination could not achieve unless vaccination rate covers 75% of the population.

Scoop from another forum.
India has its own mRNA vaccine under works. How much is it its "own" is up for question.

The Indian company claims that its fully Indian.


But it is developed in partnership with a US firm.
HDT biotech (Seattle).

With this type of situation in India, vaccinating Indians is now also indirectly saving chinese lives. Even if borders with India were shut, the viral vectors coming from India could still reach China through multiple 3rd countries. The risk of COVID in china is that it carries over from 3rd countries. If we don't assist India, we could also end up closing borders with allies in SEA and middle east as they fight spill-over infections. China should probably offer 50 million of sinopharm and sinovac now and another 25 million of Cansino. Its important to get real-time results for the vaccines against double mutation.

That is a certain, what we are witnessing is just the tip of the iceberg. The millions of poor who has little medical facilities are the one’s getting hit the most.

I am honestly surprised that the majority of the India people didn’t put two and two together can see this as a case of the rich trying to kill the poor in massive numbers. Maybe if the Indian people had a spine, they would rise up against modi. Still any chance that India has in containing China is dead in the water, probably permanently given that this crisis may be an indefinite one (with the amount of mutations and the sheer impossiblity in regards to vaccinating the nation, not that it matters at this point)
