Distribute the Vaccines NOW!
- weinzierl 6y ago> Unbelievably, millions of doses are on track to spoil this month, before they can be administered. The bottleneck is now not manufacturing, it’s not supply, it’s just pure bureaucratic dysfunction and chaos, lack of funding and staff, and a stone-faced unwillingness by governors to deviate from harebrained “plans” and “guidelines” even with their populations’ survival at stake. Is this really true? In Germany there is currently a big outcry because there are not enough vaccine doses available. While probably unavoidable to some degree it would be a shame if people die because of logistical difficulties.
- dekhn 6y agoI know: let's put computer scientists with opinions in charge of large-scale biomedical projects. Just for 10 years. Then evaluate the results. I can make a simple prediction: the results would be far worse than what we have now, it would cost more, and the project leaders would write "An Update on COVID" where they explained why the project was killed 6 months before for not having enough impact.
