What the fuck ever. Part of the issue and the main reason China kept the lockdowns in place is the vaccine they developed just isn't effective. Studies put it's effectiveness at 1/3rd of the effectiveness of western vaccines. China had mandatory vaccinations the west didn't. In most western counties though they experienced some form of lockdown they never experienced anything near what China has done and while lockdowns work to an extent you need an effective vaccine to get you out of a permanent lockdown. The fear now is China spreading a new variant that makes western vaccines non-effective and putting the world back to square one or worse. Also Russian vaccines weren't anywhere near as effective as western ones but Russia has cut itself off from the rest of the world via the Ukraine war and people are more likely to die from combat than COVID. In the coming decades Russia will face a horrible population crisis with the loss of so many due to disease and war.

Don't let big words get in the way of real logic.
