> I also do not trust chinese vaccine and their manufacturing process.

Maybe you could have phrased that in a way that's not so racist?

EDIT: I sometimes try to explain that I expect such things to be posted with almost 100% certainty, and that it's not nice to read such things that https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26322291 so I must insist: you may not trust a company or manufacturing process, but not trusting anything at all from a given country is racism

Sorry, being racist towards CCP is the worst!

No, that's chauvinism. Chinese is not a race. Specifically members of the chinese government are not a race.

Racism?! Seems as likely me that you're publicly berating a student of English for the fun of it. Heck, if GP is implying that they could get the Chinese vaccine, wouldn't that imply they are themselves Chinese?

Chinese vaccine with trip to UAE is righ now the only vaccine available to me. I need jab for travel, but it will take another 12 months to get it through public health system (EU).

China is a country, not only an ethnicity. Maybe you could have chosen to read "I don't trust a vaccine made in China" without reading racism into it that was never there?
