On vaccine apartheid and how big PHARMA and rich imperialist governments are prolonging this pandemic by hoarding vaccines and refusing to waive patent rights so poor countries can produce them
With the US and the West having secured multiple times over the vaccines needed for their populations, but some countries without any vaccine at all, we are living in vaccine apartheid. Big Pharma refuses to give over its formulas, despite public funding, allowing untold numbers of people to die from COVID and variants to mutate — and possibly begin to resist vaccines.
