Replace Oxford-Astrazenica vaccines death with Sinovac or Sinopharm and that vegetable b..ch or a man wouldn't be this rationale or scientifically sound with the explanation. The unfortunate deaths would have been quickly attributed to the "low quality" or worse "deliberate" plans by the Red Commies to kill the heavenly Taiwanese for the eventual takeover of the land and or some other crazy s..t these losers will come up with.
Come to think about, if China did purposely leaked the vaccine, or knowing that they are in a possession of such a game changing bio weapon, they could have easily just used the vaccine in Xinjiang to deal with those pesky terrorists problems and to Taiwan to create instability, panic, and mistrust to their government that Taiwanese people would have called for assistance and help from the mainland which would have been a more desirable scenario compared to forcefully reincorporating the island back.

Let me give you an analogy, back couple years ago when Microsoft first came out with the Edge (new IE) browser, they did something controversial they made an ad blocker built in by default... sure it hurt Bing ads revenue but since Google was like 90% of the ad market, it hurt Google even MORE than it hurt Microsoft so by Microsoft's view it was still a net win....
Eventually Microsoft gave up and now the New Edge is using the Google Chromium engine under the hood...
I predict eventually after its all said and done within a decade or two the US will be met with the same outcome despite all the current shenanigans both overt and covert
