  1. A lot of prejudice in this comment thread. Let's look at evidence. "Westerner" is a political term meaning country with majority European and not Eastern Europe usually but everyone when speaking with prejudice has their own definition. Chinese propaganda has a very narrow definition usually just points out problems unique to the US and then infers all of us are the same. Japan , China , Australia and New Zealand are four of the members of the Western Pacific WHO region, the head office is in Philippines and last time I checked the person in charge was Japanese. What our region did was ignore European WHO region and PAHO Pan-American Health Organization region which thought that keeping borders open and no quarantine was the go, our region thought this wasn't the way to go, we are actually a very diverse WHO region from Pacific Island nations half of ASEAN and East Asia , all different forms of government but very early on 14 days genuine quarantine usually hotel and enforced was adopted and genuine containment measures with outbreaks. Success creates success, the more failures that occurred the worse the problems got, Australia and New Zealand are very highly vaccinated, just as high as Japan and South Korea, your original point is mute. Every country has antivaxxers for various reasons , mostly fear though and if time is taken and the government is trusted high vaccination rates will follow. In Eastern Europe and many in the US in particular people don't trust their governments and vaccinations are lower than they could be. It's actually that simple, nothing to do with culture or race or even form of government.
