Pentagon's Anti-Vax Disinformation Campaign
The Pentagon orchestrates a covert campaign aimed at sowing fear of China's Sinovac vaccine in countries like the Philippines, using disinformation to undermine China and promote US interests, despite lives being at risk. The campaign spreads false narratives, like suggesting the vaccine violates Islamic law due to pork gelatin, impacting vaccine uptake.
Foreign Policy & Vaccine Distribution
The US prioritizes profits by restricting access to vaccines and engaging in disinformation campaigns, leaving poorer nations like the Philippines dependent on China's Sinovac. This selfish approach not only poses health risks globally but also reveals the US's flawed foreign policy in the context of the new Cold War with China.
Impact on Global Perceptions & Diplomacy
The Pentagon's actions undermine the US's credibility on the global stage and fuel perceptions of US bullying and interference, allowing China to exploit US abuses to gain influence and allies. By denigrating China and hindering global vaccine access, the US jeopardizes alliances and risks further polarization in the new multipolar world order.
