>> I heard a report today that the Sinovac vaccine is around 50% effectiveness, is that
>> being reported in Chile?
Been reading Fox News?
Frankly I haven't got a clue. I do suspect that the effectivity is lower but there is so much conflicting news and so little official word in Chile that f.nose.
1) Indonesia reported 65.3% in Nov/Dec
2) Turkey reported 91.25 in Dec
3) Brazil reported 78% in Dec
4) UAE reported 86% in Jan
5) Brazil reported 50.3% in Jan
6) Turkey reported 83% in Mar
7) Chile reported 50.6% in Mar
It would also appear that South China Morning Post is releasing stuff the UdC hasn't.
The South China Morning Post seems to be the source of a lot of bad news about China. It used to be independent, then was Murdoch, then Alibaba etc. Used to be Hong Kong oriented, now seems to be politicised by the Chinese.

"But the study by the University of Chile also found that one dose of the Sinovac jab was only 3 per cent effective against infection, underscoring the need to get fully vaccinated. Efficacy rises to 27.7 per cent within two weeks after the second jab, reaching 56.5 per cent a fortnight later, according to the university."
