In an era of phony free trade agreements it should come as no surprise that sharing a patent is considered repugnant not only to big Pharma, but to most first world nations, and especially those that pray at the alter of Capitalism.
To share these patents, and to use those patents to vaccinate the worlds population would be an admission that Capitalism cannot handle a worldwide pandemic. And if the world came to that realization they just may have further epiphanies about the shortcomings of the State religion of Capitalism.
That line of thought cannot, will not, be allowed.

International ANYTHING, now, only lobbies FOR conglomerates; funding 0.01% boondoggles with tax dollars; as complicit media, eagerly captured regulatory and craven university & research is only there to obfuscate with identical cherry-picked PR releases? International organizations, like all of our individual autocratic kleptocracies, blatantly aligned against we, the indentured peons!

Resveratrol might save lives when used as PREP. It’s a stilbene that greatly inhibits corona-virus replication, even in the brain. (protecting the ability to breathe in one’s sleep)
What the hell is wrong here?

These stories about not sharing the vaccine patents, that the public mostly paid for, can’t be right, can they? I thought we “we’re all in this together”…Maybe that was a saying just for the rich as they fleeced the rest of us, it probably wasn’t for the publics ears.

What they are all trying to avoid discussing is this: The Doha Declaration on the TRIPS Agreement and Public Health << this is the name people seek and should know more about.

Barry the Nobel Droner established the precedent for dealing with those uppity humanitarians at Doctors Without Borders: if they are interfering with the business of Empire, war or imperialism, just bomb them.

This is like living in a horror movie—where PAY or DIE seems to be the name of the show!
And remembering what Dr Salk said that, he didn’t patent the polio vaccine because that would be like trying to patent the sun. Maybe the big pharma people should all have a convention on a beautiful island celebrating how much money they are making—but as in any good horror movie, an even newer variant would be let lose on the island---- a terminal lesson would be learned for all the greedy ones. Perhaps the new variant would turn their skin GREEN---- and we would aways know, by sight — who these evil ones were!
were.
