The current COVID-19 wave — triggered by a snap relaxation of containment restrictions — has seen Chinese drug stores stripped of supplies, as people snap up cold and fever treatments.

abc.net.au/news/chinese-wanting-covid-19-drugs-head-to-black-market/101830858Desperate families searching for critical COVID-19 medication in China — faced with bare pharmacy shelves and an explosion of cases — are being driven into murky online marketplaces that are rife with price gouging and fraud.

This could be extremely dangerous to our democracy...

Why? Still covid 19 spreading in china?

If they put melamine in infant formula, imagine what they’ll put in bootleg vaccine.

But has China closed the Wet Markets IF that was the original source of Covid? 🤔?

Anti-Chinese propaganda has started, and it is brought to you by , In meanwhile US citizens under attack by XBB15 COVID-19 subvariant and not a single news about this.

I wonder what the covid black market for vaccines to China is. Very quiet isn't it.

And what planners they r without a democratic opposition to get motivational prepared for a breakout.. no one to bounce questions or ideas or concerns as the punishment was/is uigherlike. Works better than Xiism.

The CCP f**k it up again. I feel so sorry for the Chinese people.

It's a shame that after saying they'd be respectful ect. now r bulliing countries that need protection like cinaland did for the last 3 years,you know to save lives and health.but they r trying to invade with infected spies to damage us all ,getting shitty as we won't let them!!
