Well, we got another load of 1 million Sinovac doses and of course the Minister had to come out to say "All vaccines we have bought are safe and effective."

Reactions on social media to this:
- "For the love of God, stop buying more of that vaccine!"
- "Why the hell aren't they trying to get us more Pfizer and Moderna?"
- "They keep ordering and ordering more of the least effective vaccine."
- "Why do we have the same % of vaccinated as the US and still have lockdowns?"

People are pissed off.


Now it is coming out that ICU bed occupation is increasing in the 70+ age group. They are the most vaccinated and were the first to receive vaccines. Supposedly the great success of the vaccines was fewer elderly in the ICU. The Health Minister now says more investigation needs to be done and said he has no data on whether the people in the ICU were vaccinated or not. For the last 3-4 weeks or so, they have made data available about the percentages of ICU admissions that were vaccinated or not. Now, suddenly the Minister has no idea.

The idea of a booster for people that have received Sinovac is "under study" and the Health Ministry only talks about buying more vaccines next year.
