Why are they desperate for Sinovac to fail?
 

it’s so strange  

Mostly it has to do with the fact that it's made in China, I think and these members let their feelings about the Chinese govt cloud their judgement.

It's called "irrationality" and the rest of us have to put up with it here.

Or maybe that it costs 4x the price of AZ and is the least effective vaccine?

I think it's clear why the Thai govt underordered doses of AZ and relied so heavily on Sinovac. All it takes is a look at  Sinovac's dubious business history, 

Sinovac has been the least effective vaccine for a while. But does "least" mean it's not useful?

Covid-19: Chinese vaccines may need changes to improve efficacy, admits official

Published in April ...  

The phase III trials of China’s existing vaccines remain unpublished. For CoronaVac, the vaccine made by private company Sinovac, phase 1 and II data has been published2—showing a limited antibody response—while state owned Sinopharm has only said that its two vaccines have efficacy of 79.4% and 72.5%, based on interim results.

The phase III Sinovac trials conducted in Brazil, Chile, Indonesia, Turkey, and the Philippines have so far given sharply disparate unpublished results, with Brazilian researchers finding 50.7% efficacy, or 62.3% with longer dosing intervals,3 while Turkish researchers reported 83.5% efficacy.

Another nutter, Studies to determine its efficacy againt the more virulent Delta variant are ongoing, he said. 

 

He obviously doesn't read the news.

 

"Calls to give medical workers a booster shot are growing after a 30-year-old nurse died after contracting Covid-19 despite having received two doses of the Sinovac vaccine".
