In China, life is less than cheap.

The misnamed People’s Liberation Army are bigger liars than our domestic version of the Delusional Lying Left - but they’re cut from the same cloth.

This seems very odd and unusual to me.

I can understand a brave wartime move, but this sounds more like a “you broke it, you fix it” kind of deal.

After all, if the Chinese are going full tilt on vaccine development, as is everyone else, why would they skip at least minimal animal trials? Especially, when they claim that the virus is under control, new cases are dropping, and society is returning back to normal.

Under those circumstances, why would a top military scientist feel compelled to take a potentially very risky step? She would appear to have a lot of value as a continuing live researcher.

Testing new things on yourself has a long and storied history among research scientist. In the case described here, however, I’d be surprised if it actually happened. Figuring out a way to tell tall tales for personal glory is probably why language was developed in the first place.

Serious question:

Would North Korean Ninjas be allowed to eat Kimchi?

"You Jane.... and me...Tarzan!"

Sure, it could just be "selfless brilliant scientist offers herself for first trial" propaganda.

Another way of putting this? Any Chinese press release that suggests great personal sacrifices by the nomenklatura is likely a lie.

Probably because they already had a headstart on the
vaccine. Maybe she was the one named responsible and
had to take the bullet.
