But no one was suggesting " dedicating 100% of the world gdp" to vaccine production.
I'm simply saying that using more boosters in wealthy countries in no way depletes the vaccine, or raises the prices for it, in poorer countries.
I mean, would you agree that wealthy people buying more television sets does not in any way reduce the ability of poorer people to buy television sets?
- bagacrap 5y agoIf rich people decide to throw away their TVs every six months and get a new one, this may affect our ability to make sure everyone in the world has a TV without beginning to sacrifice other things like bread or clothing. But this analogy sucks because a TV is a luxury purchase and there's no network effect whereby I become safer if everyone in the world has a TV.
