50M doses isn't something that gets suddenly summoned. It's a big logistics problem. Your assumption is valid only if the pharmas have capacity to make a extremely big amount of vaccine doses. That costs money and (I guess) materials, and both of those things could go towards a vaccine that is proven to be effective.
