"Why don't we blow the system up, everyone should have this new vaccine we haven't given to everyone yet"

"But there must be some way..."

What, like some kind of "event"?

So big that everyone will take the shot?

Gotcha!

Michael Specter : "why don't we blow this system up i mean obviously we can't just turn off the spigot on the system we have and then say hey everyone in the world should get this new vaccine we haven't given to anyone yet but there must be some way that we grow vaccines mostly in eggs the way we did in 1947."

Anthony Fauci : "in order to make the transition from getting out of the tried and true egg growing which we know gives us results that can be you know beneficial i mean we've done well with that to something that has to be much better uh you have to prove that this works and then you've got to go through all of the clinical trials phase ones phase twos phase three and then show that this particular product is going to be good over a period of years that alone if it works perfectly is going to take a decade."

Rick Bright :❗"there might be a need or even an urgent call for uh an entity of excitement out there that's completely disruptive that's not beholden to bureaucratic strings in in in processes."❗

Anthony Fauci : "so we really do have a problem of how the world perceives influenza and it's going to be very difficult to change that unless you do it from within and say i don't care what your perception is we're going to address the problem in a disruptive way and in an iterative way because you do need both."

Rick Bright : "but it is not too crazy to think that an outbreak of a novel avian virus could occur in china somewhere we could get the rna sequence from that beam it to a number of regional centers if not local if not even in your home at some point and print those vaccines on a patch and self-administer."
