This is not so different from Corona Virus as a biological weapon. Weaponizing a vaccine by trying to buy exclusive rights to it. Seriously fuck right off Trump and the hyper capitalists who would look for huge profits in something like this
"BERLIN (Reuters) - Berlin is trying to stop Washington from persuading a German company seeking a coronavirus vaccine to move its research to the United States, prompting German politicians to insist no country should have a monopoly on any future vaccine. ..."

Instead of luring and exclusivity, the approach should be "how can we help?" How can we collaborate to ensure this is done as swiftly as possible for the benefit of ALL people, regardless of nationality?
But I guess that's like believing in unicorns and pots of gold at the end of rainbows.![]()
Besides, it's not like some U.S. firms aren't hard at work searching for a vaccine as well.
It is just another example of the idea that people can be categorised and that we can pretend to roll the clock back and not live on a planet in which everyone is connected and travel for business and pleasure 24hrs a day. Head in the sand stuff will just make it worse. Like people hoarding hand soap and sanitisers? Mental. As though having the cleanest hands on earth is going to help you when all the people who may pass the virus on, can not clean their hands because you nicked all the hand soap![]()
