Remember that Pfizer could make the vaccine formula open source at any moment. they could even sell the rights to the US government at a king’s ransom. Doing so would let other pharma companies produce doses, and potentially end this thing 10x faster. But they won’t. Instead, they’re about to become unimaginably wealthy.
Also remember that the Pharmaceutical industry, and by extension the US government, has a vested interest in NOT preventing future pandemics.
