Vaccines won't help the current situation in India just mitigate a 3rd wave, that boat has sailed, its just more mis-direction by the BJP, they should be concentrating on saving lives and putting lock downs and travel restrictions in place to reduce/contain spread. Not grandstanding with online systems to book appointments for non-existent vaccines which over a 3rd of the population can't do anyway because they don't have internet access.
An unkind observer might conclude its just a cull of the poor, if not for the fact even establishment figures are dying in cars waiting to get into hospitals!
China needs to be methodical with increasing capacity, it has little to gain and much to lose, the western press just blew past/largely buried their manufacturing issues
,
but you can bet if there's any fault with a Chinese manufacturer you'll never hear the end of it.
