On the BBC this morning, citizens in China are receiving the first of two vaccines against COVID-19. Watch this space!

Oh, that's good news.

Out of interest, why aren't we using their vaccine??

It will be good to see how it works out in China given that it will be at scale. However, as they seem to have got it under control, how will they know if it works?

And do we know how extensively the Russian one is being deployed in Russia?

Because they haven’t trialled it to the level that the UK requires it to be deemed safe, because you can’t trust chinese data or China in general, because there are thousands in this country saying that they won’t have the actually very safe and fully trialled oxford vaccine if it works so why on earth would they have the Chinese one Confused

And how much will they charge for it?
