Testing first, then if it works, guess who it will go to. Not me and my family,
that's for darn sure. Even in the US, we will be far down on the totem pole. And how long would it take to make enough to give the vaccine to the entire world? Should people in the developed countries have first dibs? I don't think so. How will it be decided, rich at the top, poor at the bottom? Hate to sound pessimistic, but guess I am. Sorry 
I think it comes from days of arguing with my hubbie about spending $ and storing prep stuff. I'm just plain tired of getting into it. And so is he. Best, Rocky  -------------  Rocky |

The WHO & UN have already stated that countries that produce vaccine (10 IIRC?) will not export any until their citizens are taken care of. And don't be so quick to feel guilty about the US having vaccine & poor country having none. Our domestic production is next to nil. We will be begging vaccine along with many other countries. The US is planning a new vax plant...it is scheduled to come on line in... 2009 |
