Not sure what link you were referring to, and what's that has got to do with Sinopharm's vaccine?

Paragraph 6 of your link!

 We'll help you (Sinopharm) if you let us build ( another Ream/ Cambodia?)...in your country. Time will tell.

    Doesn't matter what vac' you get, you can still catch Covid. You just stand a better chance of not getting really ill and ending up in ICU. Thinking the vac' will stop you catching Covid is

 Seychelles: (Quote) Other countries where a significant proportion of the population is fully vaccinated, have reported much lower levels of new infections. 
This link might make things clearer?
 https://www.bbc.com/news/57148348

Those who have been vaccinated in Seychelles but were found to be infected were mostly asymptomatic. That's good news, right?

In Malaysia, close to a thousand frontliners which were vaccinated with Pfizer's vaccine were found to be infected and many have passed the infection to others. In Singapore, many fully vaccinated (Pfizer or Moderna) people still got infected. Looks like not a single vaccine can prevent infection 100%.

I call any jab that can prevent 100% death, complete bull !

To understand it is necessary to look closely at what the efficacy numbers mean.

They refer to a comparison between the placebo group and the vaccinated group in the phase 3 trial.

The trials run until a predetermined number of events have occurred (for example symptomatic infections).

The trial is unmasked at this point, up until the number of sentinel events have occurred it is unknown who got the vaccine and who got the placebo.

 

Then the number of deaths/hospitalizations/symptomatic infections are compared between the two groups.

So if the vaccine group had 5% the number of symptomatic infections that the placebo group had, that is 95% efficacy against symptomatic infection.

If there were no deaths in the vaccinated group, that is 100% vs. death.

 

I have read several people on TVF stating that a 95% efficacy vs. symptomatic infection means only a 5% chance of infection "if they are exposed to the virus" which is not what it means.  But misinformation is the hallmark of the news shared about this virus.

More likely to Help Malaysia build another port to rival Singapore's port. Naval base? Malaysia is not overly dependent on China, unlike Cambodia or Laos.

It fits a pattern. China is building naval bases in strategic locations.

The majority of vaccinated people have received China’s Sinopharm vaccine as well as the AstraZeneca shot (known as Covishield locally, a version produced in India).

Of all the positive cases, the health ministry said 63% had either not been vaccinated or had only received one dose of SinoPharm or Covishield, but 37% of the new infections were in people who had received both doses..

 

Be nice to see a breakdown between these 2 vaccines wouldn't it!

People believe that the moment they have been jabbed life goes back to normal. This is also the case in the Seychelles from what I read. 

Has anyone had any adverse reactions to any of these Quackccines?

At the end of the cold war (1989) America had 1600 bases overseas. in 2015 they had 800. This fact is taken from your link https://www.basenation.us/maps.html
