Tldr:
America took a "us first, fuck everyone else" stance for who got vaccines.
China tried to supply developing nations (to get them more closely aligned to China, not goodwill)
So trump got the CIA to spread propaganda that vaccines don't work.
Biden waited months before it "stopped" but with shit like this it's common for the CIA to say they stopped but just keep going. We alreyknew they lied about the end date once, and they were doing even more fucked up shit they won't tell us.
Even so, Reuters found some anti-vax posts that continued through April and other deceptive COVID-related messaging that extended into that summer. Reuters could not determine why the campaign didn’t end immediately with the NSC’s order. In response to questions from Reuters, the NSC declined to comment.
The senior Defense Department official said that those complaints led to an internal review in late 2021, which uncovered the anti-vaccine operation. The probe also turned up other social and political messaging that was “many, many leagues away” from any acceptable military objective. The official would not elaborate.
