soft power via vaccine
Lol US and Europe hoarding all the vaccines while 3rd world countries have nothing.
Stupid s think they can stop a global.pandemic this way stupid re s this is like fire extinguishing your bedroom while you let the rest of the house burn.
Why the buy 3 times the amount of vaccine you need? Sounds like a pussy that goes to buy up toilet paper
Thank God we have china and russia to save the day
Both already sharing their vaccines and letting the 3rd world countries themselves produce their own. "Teach a man to fish.."
soft power via vaccine
Can u imagine if there was no chinese and russian vaccines and the entire world had to depend on greedy West??? It would be a cluster
wed be utterly ed
Thank God for China and Russia
We call that a free market outcome, sacrificing human health to it is a feature, not a bug. So is the concentration of misery in the global south.
Moral "blind spot" of the system, you might say.
who bought three times what they need?
European Union and UK
Britain has ordered 367 million doses of seven different vaccines – some already approved and some candidate drugs – for its population of roughly 67 million, while the European Union has secured nearly 2.3 billion doses for its 450 million people, says Reuters.
poor Ukraine. Daddy USA told them they cannot use Russian vaccines. They complied.
Now they are out of luck and have to beg china and india for their tier vaccines

You forgot about Oxford-AstraZeneca.
Wbat r u talking about. The first hundred million doses of those have also been bought by UK/US/EU
Capitalism has no morals, ethics, humanity.
50 years ago, venerated high priest of economic bull Friedman said the only responsibility of a business is returning capital to shareholders, no responsibility to employees, not to environment, not to society, not to "free" market.
BigCorp has run with that idea and we and the planet are all ed by Capitalism.
Antivaxxer Hater complaining that everyone in the world doesn't have access to the vaccines he doesn't want them to take
I was never an antivaxxer Nancy.
I did say right now we dont have a reliable safe proven vaccine yet. Which is a fact
Still doesnt affect the fact that West is hoarding all vaccines they produce
Greedy scared es
Brutal, tbh.
I do find it weird we're looking at getting 600 million doses in the US though. No way there are only 30 million vaccine truthers in this nation.
Likely > 30M already had Covid
Assuming the trial results are good, my guess is the J&J vaccine will be the one the US "gifts" to the world. At least I hope that's what we do.
Astrazenca should be the vaccine for the world but man that company is seems ed up. First the whole clinical trial dose fiasco. Now trying to short change the EU so they can make more $ off the poorer nations. Charging the Eu $3 a dose but charging poorer nations like India $6 dose.
This is basically what I am hearing as well.
My wife going in next Monday for the 2nd Moderna. People at her office have felt ty after the 2nd to varying degrees.
No one has felt bad enough to go to the hospital and die.
Sorry for the bad news Hater and Kori. But it’s a small sample size, if you guys wish it to be true for an “I told you so”, hang in there.
btw, after vaccinated, you can still get covid, and the immune system will kick you ass as it fights the infection, like a really bad cold
95% chance that doesn't happen
95% effective???
I've a read couple of explanations what that means. still not clear

Statnews email:
"Novavax says its Covid-19 vaccine is 90% effective, but far less so against one variant
A Covid-19 vaccine from Novavax proved nearly 90% effective in preliminary results from a key clinical trial in the United Kingdom, the company said,
but appeared far less effective against a new variant of the coronavirus that accounted for most of the cases in South Africa."
