#2 As I understand it, the US Pioneered and produced a viable VAX back in JAN/FEB 2020.

Russia "acquired" the research and produced some VAX's to announce a Putin modernized USSR BEATS USA Pravda headline.

But some how only the USA is blamed for not make 7.8B (15.6B if the 2 shot process) doses to treat the whole world?

Once again why do we the USA accept any type of blame?

We are the ones trying to FIX Communist CHINA's global Screw-up.

It is China's Global Epidemic that killed MILLIONS?

It was Trumps executive order that cut Time to Market by 3 to 5 years to only 8 months.

But in a typical avoid the blame game fashion, the Socialist-Democrats are playing politics with the MEDIA's Help and are blaming Trump for China's screw-up.

#3 As I understand it, the US Pioneered and produced a viable VAX back in JAN/FEB 2020.

A potential vaccine candidate. Until the testing is done, nobody can know if someone’s bright idea actually works as it is supposed to, and if the benefits outweigh the side effects.

*shrug* My father, a brilliant organic chemist, discovered interferon. But because he retired before he had got very far into the experiment series that would have shown that it worked, the two or three other teams that discovered it independently and did do the work to demonstrate that it was both effective and safe legitimately got all the credit and the Nobel prize money a decade later.
