  • Maneuver: Elon leaks the rumor that Apple is considering a ban...

Chinese vaccine comparisons

From comments - "Benjamin Lasseter - We did do this in the West.  
There were at least two well-reputed but small pharmaceutical companies in the USA which produced a similar dead-virus vaccine, which they were able to generate in large quantities and at low cost.  
They offered the vaccine for consideration quite early in the pandemic timeline.  
For some peculiar reason, they were never given expedited approval even to this date.  
It's quite odd."
