why did Uncle Sam give away IP on vaccine?
Bharat Biotech and SII had already cracked it. It clearly meant, their strategy to sell five-zer in this populated Indian market was shredded .
they tried their level best to question BB and SII thru proxies - attacking it's efficacy, cost, supply chain and what not.
GOI especially Ajit Doval played a pivotal role in holding uncle sam's balls. This was the turning point.
The moment raw materials path for SII was cleared, there was very little hope for five-zer. They still kept on trying.
Another blunder was the pics of crematoriums, it was meant to push GOI in buying five-zer, but it boomeranged where it showed Uncle sam not helping India in Crisis, where we had supplied HCQ to them.
NM was right in saying, we can create pressure on the world due to our population numbers.
Media did it's level best in spreading panic. Constant reporting with SAD BACKGROUND MUSIC, creating an atmosphere of doom.
The panic led to hoarding, blackmarketing of RMDSVR, hospital beds and oxyg3n cylinders.
Small burts of news where BG was saying no to sharing vaccine tech with developing countries, spread on Social Media
If you observe, 1 particular bollywood actor was actively questioning pricing, off late , it slowed down.
It seems, five-zer lost the plan and Uncle Sam agreed to waive off vaccine IP, just to take moral high ground.
