'XiNN is at it again!' CNN is sure to earn more social credit points from China for this 'experts say' take

CNN continues to make everybody wonder if they’re just the U.S. branch office of China state media, and here’s the latest reason:

Experts say that while Chinese vaccines might not be as effective as some, they aren't a failure; no vaccine gives 100% protection against Covid-19.

They say the metric for measuring success is preventing deaths and hospitalizations, not zero Covid-19. https://t.co/a2dlcuAuaJ

Wow, somebody’s about to get another bouquet of flowers sent from Beijing! Just the other day CNN published this doozy:

"Within days, China will reach a staggering 1 billion doses in its Covid-19 vaccination drive — a scale and speed unrivaled by any other country in the world." Analysis by @Nectar_Gan & @lauraliuhe https://t.co/LB5WJYoEJ5

Every CNN story about China should be tagged “I’m Chairman Xi and I approve this message.”

It’s almost like China is the main sponsor of many CNN takes.

1. This is technically accurate but the real world performance of China vaccines is significantly worse than Pfizer, Moderna, etc.

2. CNN’s propensity to serve as a CCP mouthpiece these days is appalling. https://t.co/JdsMVFQ3iw
