It's a thing he does not work with.
- jancsika 6y agoSorry, that wasn't clear. Are the specs for the design of the "Vaccine Machine" machine-- as he terms it-- public knowledge?
- _Microft 6y agoHe's not working in drug manufacturing but in research. The details of these machines will be trade secrets. The pun in my statement was that Mr. Derek Lowe is writing a popular series of blog postings on dangerous chemicals. It is called "Things I Won't Work With". https://www.bing.com/search?q=derek+lowe+things+i+won't+work+with https://www.bing.com/search?q=derek+lowe+things+i+won't+work...
- jancsika 6y agoSo here's the unambiguous version of my original question: Why are we guessing about trade secrets in a pandemic? Seems to me that an advanced society would have the sense to say that while trade secrets are obviously an important part of the economy, in the case of a global pandemic we can suspend them specifically for the design specs of the bottleneck in vaccine production.
