If you're in China: some places are offering vaccination with the new inhalation-type vaccine. Some studies have shown it to be more effective at preventing infection compared to both injected adenovirus vaccines and mRNA vaccines. So get in queue to receive that. Otherwise, stock up on food for about a month or so, stay at home and wait for this wave to pass.

That vaccine only works for 72 hours, so people have to inhale it again once 3 days. There would be a huge od problem then.

If you're over the age of 10, get vaccinated with one of the mRNA vaccines.

They are not available. They did not agree to the terms set by the Chinese government that require them to transfer the mRNA technology to China.
