Biden’s Vaccine IP Debacle

Any comparison between Carter and Biden would be superficial. Biden is the consummate "insider", and he has appointed many highly competent insiders to key positions in his administration.

Even less excuse for Biden to make such a wimpy and useless decision to throw the American businesses under the bus when it's not even going to have any effect in widening access to the vaccines, vaccines that are already being sold to developing countries below the cost.

China is coming out with its own mRNA vaccine soon. Are we going to see China waiving IP protection to its own vaccine?
 
Punish the companies doing the research and development to come up with vaccines in the first place, then guess what the effect will be? Less research and development.

Why doesn't Biden want to pay for it, given he's willing to pay for anything else? The Treasury obtains trillions upon trillions of U.S. dollars with a bookkeeping trick supported by the Fed that prints the trillions.

Why not earmark just 5% of that printed fiat currency to buy vaccines for poor countries if this issue is of such high importance to the Biden administration? Maybe paying for it would expedite the delivery.
you mean how they patent university research paid by tax payer dollars (or Euros in the COVID vax case)?

The developing countries are corrupt, inept, and parasitic by populating like rats and blaming productive societies on their self-inflicted problems.

Biden is a fool and so are those idiots who voted for this douche, let them get the Russian and Chinese vaccines for free!
The COVID vax was developed by "parasitic rats" from one of those developing countries whom Donnie would've been quick to target for having a Muslim majority.
 
AFAIK there are 3 vaccines currently developed and in use in most of the developed world, excluding the ones in Russia and China.
