    Watch how the Asian markets react to the news today :

    China believes it has developed a vaccine and will be first to be used by its soldiers.

    China's military has been given the green light to use a Covid-19 vaccine candidate, after clinical trials yielded positive results.

    The vaccine, developed by the military's research unit and a Chinese vaccine company called CanSino Biologics, proved it was safe and showed some efficacy, the company said on Monday.

    China first announced it had been permitted to test its potential Covid-19 vaccine on humans last week.

    If these trials are successful, the vaccine will then need to receive regulatory approval, after which it could be manufactured and sold.

    It's OK. Makes sense to try vaccine in healthy young men. Very low chance of serious consequences or death.

    Good point and used to the case with Western soldiers too (remember the nuclear tests in Australia where soldiers were strategically placed around the parameter of the blast for 'observations').

    The very low incidence of deaths in Singapore (20 out of 43,000 infected) is also supportive of your point - most of the infections there were/are of the strong and healthy migrant construction workers who tested positive but few required hospital treatment.

    Na, they'll likely use intentionally infected political prisoners for testing 😔

    Strategically, it makes very good sense for China to get its military immunized first - a huge advantage in the months and years ahead.

    Why waste it on political prisoners?

    For testing in case anything bad happens, they can sweep it under the carpet easier and not lose resources. Probably easier to quarantine prisoners too, because you don't have to worry about living conditions. Also cheaper because if it doesn't work you can just murder them instead of nursing them back to health.

    Plus it's more villainous.

    Tbh, if they're applying it to their military then they've probably already tested on the prisoners.

    Sounds like what the US has been doing with its black & non-white population over the decades!
