It's not really a concern, it's just numbers; 10% of weak people quickly vaccinated will massively drop the death rate.
I have no idea how it will be possible to get it early if you can pay enough. In US.



Y but US will still be glad to get a drop from like 2k to 500 people per day without pushing forward in more lockdown & restrictions.

OFC it's not the final solution, huu i means, it's just a big patch. Thus i have no idea how long it will take to vaccinate these 20 millions people: at least 3 weeks because of the two-doses innoculation.
Yeah, it will help but it will not be that brilliant, lets say it will reduce the death rate but not that fast and more like 50% after 2 months than 70-80%. Okay.

And Christmass... Will be be a pain in front of the pine.

fuck a virus

it can jump to animals, you know that ?

all of my friends are dead.

I'm right on most of the big things - Coronavirus being a big deal, Man U going nowhere under Ole, Biden winning the election, Brexit deal to be passed (TBC)

Doesnt take a genius to predict that ManUtd will keep being stuck in mediocrity.

Not when they hired him permanently...did you see the run they went on?

Nope, sorry. Was too busy watching my hometown club Bayern Munich win 5 titles in one season.



But let's cut the off-topic...

Except for the "3rd world" where they've had an ebola outbreak, which needed -70C coolers. Africa is not one country
And India does have a cold chain network, that dealt with the rotavirus. I'm not sure if that needed -70 of 2-8 C. But it looks like to just needs a small upgrade to distribute from the AstraZeneca factory in India. Imo that looks promising and I am a bit thrilled that AstraZeneca can make 3bil vaccines (for comparison: 1.3 for Pfizer/BioNTech and 500mil for Moderna) in 2021.

I personally think that you can actually get quite far with the 7 days of dry ice. (basically everywhere in the world). According to Pfizer, the dry ice can be refilled for 7 more days, and another 5 days at 2-8C. That's 19 days in total. With a bit of just in time management, instead of delivering everything at once, You'd have over a week to administrate a package anywhere in the most desolated area's in the world. But experts seem to disagree ^^. Eventually with the Oxford vaccine and many others to come, those areas will probably get a cheaper vaccine at lower transportation costs.

Dry ice in a cooler lasts like 5 days on a shelf. Longer in a normal freezer. India has a ton of pharma research conducted there. They absolutely have the infrastructure to transport something on dry ice. Africa is a similar, albeit more heterogeneous.

This is a pretty dumb take that assumes cars and coolers dont exist, or that it isn't easy to ship a medium size freezer, and that medical research only happens in the first world.
