The US is still reporting over 200+ covid deaths a day, plus tens of thousands of hospitalisation. And its majority people that have been vaccinated. Scale that for China's population and density. Not so hard you were saying?
"For the first time, a majority of Americans dying from the coronavirus received at least the primary series of the vaccine.
Fifty-eight percent of coronavirus deaths in August were people who were vaccinated or boosted, according to an analysis conducted for The Health 202 by Cynthia Cox, vice president at the Kaiser Family Foundation."

Not OP, but with them about it being "not hard" compared to the current horrific handling of the situation in China: it's costly (economically, socially, psychologically, …) and inefficient (current variants put us past the point where lockdowns would suffice to stop the spread, and every week that goes gives a new evidence of it).

Could you explain what it is that you find controversial about it? That's not a measure of vaccines efficiency, it is merely a measure of their intake.

Chinese pride. God forbid the Chinese government accepting an American creation that's better than theirs. Chinese way or no way.
