How about we go one at a time?
Parallelizing calls without synchronicity problems
Those are likely the most tested vaccines in history.
We're suppose to be able to do things like this in order to save ourselves. Imagine if COVID was deadlier, had a higher R-naught, etc. Would you still be advocating for "taking it slow"? If hundreds of thousands were dying per day should we still be waiting years for a vaccine?
You can also laud the mrna vaccines and be critical of the obscene profits being made.
In fact, you can also promote vaccinating as widely as possible, and at the same time harshly condemn the politicization of medicine, the creation of second class citizens, and the nonsense power games being fought that seem to exclusively benefit massive corporations that fund political campaigns.
I think even with a 10% CFR, there'd be droves of vaccine skeptics, unless the virus hits people with more or less uniform symptoms.
...or maybe it even has nothing to do with lethality at all, look at the ebola vaccine rollouts in Africa.
They were also handled with an abundance of caution, which is why many countries suspended the Oxford vaccine after initial reports of adverse effects in young women despite the extremely low frequency hinting at sampling bias rather than genuine side-effects.
lol.
This is crazy to be honest. If there was some malfeasance during the development of the vaccines, the people responsible will be long dead by then and cannot be punished. In that case Pfizer would just pay some fine and continue business as usual.
The vaccine could be developed very quickly, I don't understand why there is the needs to wait so long to release the data - the data itself (emails, scientific documents and such) should be quite limited. I believe Pfizer claimed it's too much data to process and they need many years, but I find this quite unbelievable.
> The FDA proposes releasing 500 pages per month on a rolling basis, noting that the branch that would handle the review has only 10 employees and is currently processing about 400 other FOIA requests.

"Just give me all of it" is easy to request, but hard to implement.
Gathering this data would be a breeze.
It's not like that someone will go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexually_transmitted_infection make a list, prepare a vaccine combos for all of them and release it in a big announcement.
