There's no indication whatsoever that the US, any western nation, or even China is going to skip any of the normal testing so there won't be any basis for "wasn’t tested thoroughly". If a vaccine were to be approved without all normal testing complete (looks highly unlikely at this point), it would under be emergency authority and would be labeled as such.
