Vietnam to give Chinese nationals priority for Covid-19 jabs after complaint, embassy says

Vietnam has agreed to give Chinese nationals in the country priority for its latest shipment of Covid-19 jabs after a complaint from China, according to its embassy in Hanoi.

It comes after China donated 500,000 doses of the Sinopharm vaccine to its southern neighbour, which arrived in Hanoi on Sunday.

Vietnam’s health ministry on Wednesday said the doses would be sent to nine northern provinces for “Vietnamese people living in communities neighbouring China, people who engage in trade and service exchanges with China, and Chinese nationals staying and working in Vietnam”.

But the following day, the Chinese embassy in Hanoi said Vietnam had broken its promise to give priority to Chinese nationals and that they should be vaccinated ahead of the other groups.

“According to the consensus of China and Vietnam, the Vietnamese government has made repeated pledges that the vaccines given by China would first go to Chinese people in Vietnam, Vietnamese people who have plans to work in China, and Vietnamese people living near the Chinese border,” the embassy said in a statement.

The Sinopharm vaccine is reported to be one of the least effective COVID-19 vaccines available, with nations that have relied on it reporting outbreaks of the disease.

Anyone surprised?

Just like America’s Socialist Communist Democrats, they offer bended knee showing reverence to the world leader...

Xi Jinping

Even more tragic and vitally crucial, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Communist “Millie” Milley never questioned the premise of “white rage” or its definition. He never questioned when it began or if its real outside of some liberal douche creating it?

The short, fat, bagged eyed fake should resign!

No love lost between Vietnam and China. Maybe this is Vietnam telling China to shove their “vaccine”.
