China Conducts First Successful COVID-19 Vaccine Test On Monkeys by Godisgreatest1: 7:31am On May 12, 2020 |
While the government and scientists all over the world are trying to develop an effective vaccine against the deadly coronavirus, which has claimed lakhs of lives, Chinese scientists have claimed that they have successfully tested the country's first vaccine against COVID 19 in monkeys, which is a significant development in the race to find a cure for the COVID 19 virus. According to the reports, PiCoVacc, an inactivated COVID 19 vaccine candidate made by Beijing-based Sinovac Biotech, has shown promising results as the experimental vaccine could help protect the rhesus macaques, a type of monkey originating in India, from the virus. The trial For doing the trial, the researchers injected the vaccine in the monkeys who were then exposed to SARS-CoV-2, which causes COVID 19 three weeks later. The report published in the science magazine stated that the vaccine triggered the immune response to produce the antibodies against the novel coronavirus. It was observed that these antibodies can also attack the normal virus. The researchers also found that monkeys who were given a dose of PiCoVacc did not have the virus in their lungs after a week. While the monkeys that were not given the vaccine developed severe pneumonia. Several reports tell that China has been testing vaccines in humans since mid-April. There is another vaccine made by Chinese military institution, which is being currently tested on humans. Also, meanwhile, Israel and Italy claimed success in developing COVID 19 vaccines. However, scientists may find it difficult to get volunteers for testing in the near future as the number of COVID 19 patients left in China is only in hundreds. A similar situation lead to the development of SARS vaccine in the year 2003.

Something is off i thought a typical vaccine takes about a year to get to trial stage. Well, it is china anyway, we should expect nothing less. |

The Chinese will soon need to test their poisonous toxin on African black monkeys, as they perceive black people to be, before they finally reach the stage of experimentation with white people's lives. Naturally if the Chinese "vaccine" kills off all the black monkeys in a slow and agonizing manner, the exercise can be declared a success by the Chinese, whose next step will then be to bribe African heads of state, so that they in turn can oblige by FORCING all their citizens to submit themselves for that lethal injection, so that the Chinese long-term agenda of depopulating Africa, and settling the entire continent with Chinese people overflowing from their homeland due to rampant breeding, can proceed as planned. 1 Like |
