Vaccines we don't want.
Don't want.
Obviously a lot of people wanted them
But we should have started sending any surplus to India several weeks ago as they desperately need them

I have heard they are in a tough situation. I believe one of the major vaccine manufacturers is in India, though.
This is true.
Unless there is a supply chain problem or trouble distributing the vaccine, they should be able to get a handle on the situation pretty quickly.
India has massive slums. The people in them are packed in like sardines, and are largely uneducated. Sadly, as a result of those two dynamics, I would suggest that there is still a ways to go for India in their battle with the Chinese plague.

Biden and his administration are loving this. They’ll use this as fear porn to keep the masks and bullshite in place.
I remember 6 months ago the argument being that the masks and Covid would disappear after the election.

I stated that. I figured with an embedded media, the Dems would poo poo data points to make Joe look good (XiNN did this to a degree by removing the daily “tracker,” but they were pretty much the only one).
Instead, they focused on the “not Trump” vaccine and the roll out (which Trump’s administration designed). In short, it is still a line of bullshite, just not in the manner that I expected.

I have developers in India, and it really is terrible there. They need help.

Im really interested in why it didn’t hit them hard way sooner.
They were hit somewhat hard last year, but it didn’t get worse because of lockdown regulations. Somewhere around. 50% of people they tested late last fall were positive for antibodies, so scientists assumed the virus had run its course through the country. Restrictions were lifted, and now they’re getting hammered. Seems the biggest culprit is the current wave is mainly being caused by a highly contagious variant. There’s also thought that the 50% positivity for antibodies was grossly overestimated.
And yeah, their government didn’t secure vaccines early enough.

A bunch of sensationalism. Sure, they are having a spike in India. But it’s no worse than what we’ve been through in the US. Remember when they were saying “Pray for Italy”? Italy has had it no worse than most western countries.

I feel the same way about the slums of Brazil. It's a ton of people living in unsanitary conditions right on top of each other.

I have a really hard time believing the sensationalism out of India after knowing how much BS was spewed in Europe and US hospitals.

Ah...India, the one place where lockdowns and nonpharmaceutical interventions worked...

Based on which study? I remember seeing high numbers like this for various neighborhoods or cities, but nothing approaching this for the country as a whole.

Now, think about the fact that china has even more people than India. Look at what is going on in India, and listen to them tell us again that china got this shite under control in a matter of months.
To be fair, I don’t think China is as uniformly packed like India. And the cities where they are, fell under super strict control that wouldn’t be tolerated in democracy.

What good would that do? Why are we responsible for the world? As said already, even if we sent our ‘surplus’ to India that’s likely not enough to make a dent in their needs.
I’m not saying we should horde them, but this idea that India’s issues should in anyway be tied to the USA here is ignorant and flat out BS.
