    Nah in the Netherlands it's about 75% of the IC patients that are unvaxed, despite them being like 25% of the total population, so domestically it's mostly definitely about getting the vaccine.

    But I'm talking about the Global South, besides the obvious moral reasons, leaving such a large part of the world population increases the chances of mutations which have a higher vaccine immunity and also its effects on the global supply chain.

    Also things like loosening IP restrictions and sending vaccines more than one day before the expiration date to other countries don't hurt the ability of the US to fight the pandemic domestically.

  • Dec 21, 2021

    Yes the US has a higher proportion of infections, but that's still only 20%, the vast majority comes from other countries. And in addition to that in Western countries it's now a matter of whether people want to take the vaccine or not, not because of the availability of the vaccine, the Global South simply does not have the access. So loosening restrictions on ip and sending vaccines early enough so they don't arrive when they're already expired is crucial.

    It’s because he’s only been in support of them (to this day) in the context of operation warp speed. One of the absolute most annoying traits about that man, even when he did something right like initiate that project he had to couch the entire thing in “the mainstream media will never give my my credit” and s***.

    Not to mention he spent the majority of 2020 trying to handwave the whole thing and claiming he was immune after having gotten it lmao
