Health Covid-19's XEC Variant Spreads Like Wildfire, Says Thai Health Ministry
Except what you claim above simply wasn't the case, as explained below from USA Today Fact Check: "Having a running start does not mean the testing process was accelerated, however. Hotez ... stated the vaccine still underwent testing among a large group of human volunteers, even more than a typical trial with over 30,000 to 60,000 people. (emphasis added) What accelerated the vaccine process was manufacturing. "The two accelerants are doing the manufacturing of risk (scaling up manufacturing based on the assumption the vaccine will work, also called at-risk manufacturing) and manufacturing the vaccine in parallel with clinical trials. That's new because we usually wait for the phase three results," he said. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2021/01/21/fact-check-covid-19-vaccine-nearly-20-years-making/3873247001/ Boston University - 2021: Myths vs. Facts: Making Sense of COVID-19 Vaccine Misinformation When so much wrong information is readily available, convincing people to get vaccinated has proven to be a huge challenge ... MYTH: The COVID vaccines were not rigorously tested, which is why they have only emergency authorization approval and not full Food and Drug Administration approval. (Update: Pfizer’s vaccine received full FDA approval on August 19) FACT: “Vaccine developers didn’t skip any testing steps, but conducted some of the steps on an overlapping schedule to gather data faster.”—Johns Hopkins Medicine (emphasis added) Davidson Hamer, a faculty member of BU’s School of Public Health: "The development was more rapid than many other vaccines. But it used the same process of phase one and phase two trials following appropriate safety measures. Stage three trials were large-scale trials done rigorously with very clear outcome definitions. The safety measures and approaches taken are standard for clinical trials. They just did it more rapidly than usual." https://www.bu.edu/articles/2021/myths-vs-facts-covid-19-vaccine/ -

Behind the Curtain: How the U.S. Helped Avert War Between India and Pakistan
USA didn't give them anything. Pakistan got first blood, but India's reaction did damage to airbases, command posts and involved an attack on Pakistan's nuclear deterrent - they bombed an underground nuclear weapons store, collapsing the entrance. With their nuclear deterrent compromised, Pakistan couldn't use it as a threat. India had more drones, Pakistan used most of theirs in a couple of days. -

How do you feel about Thailand being clearly far-right?
Authoritarian behaviour, suppression of freedom of speech / expression and the right to assembly, obsession with equality of outcome (equity) at all costs, imprisonment of political dissidents... -
