The right middleground solution would be that countries who can pay should pay and those who cannot can get a license to produce the vaccine domestically without the right to sell it domestically or internationally. Basically socialism on a country level. I’d expect countries like Germany to pay a big price for the vaccine since they can afford it and the research must be funded by the rich, right? Less wealthy nations can get a free license to produce the vaccine domestically without paying. So everyone gets access AND the research gets funded and incentivised. EDIT: I expected this to get downvoted. Everyone loves socialism unless they belong to the richer group which is expected to settle the bill. The hypocrisy is just staggering. Nobody has pushed or send help to countries struggling with SARS, MERS or Ebola. People are still dying from those viruses today. Nobody is pushing for groundbreaking changes to climate change so that we don't kill the people of tomorrow. Just some worthless PR bs agreemetns drafted at some bs EU meetings where countries agree to set low targets, still fail to meet them and just pay small fines for it to wash their hands and feel good about destroying our planet. But as soon as there's a threat to these old fat elites right now then all of a sudden they have a vetted interest in doing the right thing for themselves cough sorry I mean obviously the greater good of humanity in true PR language. Humans are selfish pricks. The sooner one realises and accepts that as a fact, the sooner one can live in harmony in this world.
