The first country to manufacture a coronavirus vaccine at scale could achieve a civilizational triumph comparable to the moon landing

Pharmaceutical companies are bracing for export bans on future coronavirus vaccines and spreading production across different continents, on early signs of a high-stakes geopolitical scramble to secure supplies for a scientific breakthrough that could confer enormous economic and political power.

The resulting picture is what public-health experts call “vaccine nationalism,” as the international pursuit for a desperately needed shot shifts into a contest of which world power can immunize its population first. A coronavirus...

Nope

If that’s so I would say it started here with Donald Trump’s nihilism.

In a nationalist dystopia, maybe... this is a pandemic. It’s a global problem. No one is safe until we all are. This is click bait

I ain’t taking shit!

🙏 for anyone and everyone exhausting their time trying to look for a cure so we can go to be our best selves COVID

Good. YOU take the contaminated Mouse Carcinogenic carrying vaccine😂👏🏽👏🏽

Incorrect. I disagree with the scale of achievement here. It's comparable to clearing up of the Spanish flu outbreak but a moon landing is far more difficult. Look at all the vaccines that's been created to date as opposed to missions to the moon. Point made

This right here is why humans should not be allowed to infect any other planets or moons. We are not worthy nor matured enough for such a responsibility

The vaccine needs to be available to everybody in every country you better not be keeping it for yourself and giving it to people with the most money. Because that would be sickening wouldn't it

no, chauvinistic nationalism is not a 'triumph'.

I thought the UN agreed that everyone will share the results. After all, no country is truly safe until everyone can manage this situation. May peace will finally come to us all.

That’s the dumbest WSJ article ever. I mean come on like they wouldn’t push to the masses a working vaccine and be paid premium come on.

Comparable to the moon landing? I’d say far exceeding the moon landing.

this is not what science is meant to be about. this is pitiful.

Do not share it with the U.S. That country is rotten to the core. JusticeForGeorgeFloyd

Retweet -Oligodynamism- it is the scientifically proven property of metals such as copper and silver to ELIMINATE COVID-19which can not survive on these materials. brass doorknobs and copper silver water ionization are of many examples.With this info a vaccine wouldn't be needed

Then the IS should never send it to any countries...they want to play that fuck them

FDA is not known for speed to market

Bill gates doesn’t want people to know he’s had a vaccine before the pandemic.

No issue. Even if dRump had gotten his hands on the vaccine first, I doubt he would make it readily available for EVERYONE considering he doesn't even give a fuck about giving an equal right for a test for everyone.

I have my money on south Korea.

How about make it creative commons so anyone who can make it can?

Makes perfect sense - vaccines are ethnicity dependent. What works on Chinese may not work for Indians.

You can be sure after the way Trump has treated the world that no one in America is getting a vaccine any time soon.

Really. The deaths aren’t even close to 1957 or 1968 flu

Trump will take all the credit so that Pompeo, Barr, Fox and Friends, Dobbs, and Sean Hannity can nominate him for the Pulitzer prize. I'm sure Putin and Bolsanaro will 2nd his nomination.

A bigger life-saving medical achievement than the dicovery of insulin? Or the polio vaccine? I don't think so.

Let's pretend one country finds the vaccine first, what will they do? Give it or sell it? If the latter, how many people won't be able to afford it? How many will die? That vaccine if found should not be sold, period but some countries want to do just that, profit from it

Only if it works

How do you copyright a virus inhibitor ? How will other govts copy and paste the formula ? .... and finally, ahem ... COST... ?

Chinese peasant scientists that let the virus escape in the first place will now find a cure for the disease they manufactured in Wuhan lab. Ok, got it thanks China!

Virus will die down well before the first vaccine.

One that works, please.

We won’t need a vaccine!

Confirmed Trump Kennedy

😂😂😂😂 we have a vaccine for the flu and it still thousands each year.

Relax! COVID-19 is NOT an existential threat to humans.

Curing cancer is like the moon landing. COVID has a ~99.95% survival rate. Nice to have a vaccine, but maybe we won’t. Who wants to take that first vaccine from China? I’d rather try my hand at COVID.

Or the first man in space

LoL let's not pretend any other country will get one before America. This is the only country where it's profitable to develop drugs, so we are decades ahead of anyone else in R&D abilities.

I’m sure that’s how Trump would read it...

Disclose and certify all ingredients. FaultyVaccines

Nope. 'THE FINAL SOLUTION' Vaccines BillGates COVID19

ex_muslim WSJ garbage paper that only supports LeperTrump and the gangrene presidency of DonaldtRumpstein.business

Even if it’s China?

Give me a break.

Not important at all. If a country other than USA developed first vaccine, it must be an espionage case that some spy has stolen the secret from USA.

ex_muslim Ain't going to happen any time soon, but the will pump you up just to have you walk around like MoronPresident, do you think WSJ we are all morons like you and your ILK!

That is overstated by many factors

The dead don't have a choice only the living If you're serious about your well-being, there's a remedy for the sick ones God Healing Oil, A Healing balm for coronavirus and other deadly diseases Truth is rare, believe it when you see it Kindly Dm if you are ready for the cure

Nothing like the world coming together for a vaccine that has a lower death rate than cancer. Keep selling cigarettes.

A quickie solution is very suspect

Resorting to hyperbole, huh? Please...

China is a way ahead, I doubt that if Trump and SecPompeo would ever admit that. They will fire CDC head who even remotely suggests that. Did Trump accept Huawei's 5G leadership? Instead, he changed the rules of the game. The WSJ would always support Trump. realDonaldTrump

Not going to happen anytime soon, sorry 😐

What did the moon landing achieve?

OR, maybe they could just share it...

Many countries may produce the vaccine. However, the virus came from only ONE country.

Yep this is the moment when the US really starts to lose ground
