If they want a patent on the vaccine then they must provide "full, clear, concise, and exact terms as to enable any person skilled in the technological area to which the invention pertains, or with which it is most nearly connected, to make and use the same."
So the one patent on the vaccine should be enough, the other seven tools of the trade patents are a red herring.
"use unpublished information as well" nope that would fail the "full and clear" terms of a patent.
- Arnt 5y agoBut what if they don't want a patent on the vaccine? Moderna has patents on seven inventions that are used for making the vaccine, and I'm sure it uses parts or processes from other companies too. AFAICT it hasn't even applied for a patent on the vaccine.
