Popular patent war

Recently, one? Will the United States give up the intellectual property patent of COVID-19 vaccine? The news triggered a heated discussion among netizens and caused a heated discussion on the Internet. We know that since the outbreak of the epidemic, most countries do not have enough vaccines to fight against it, and the number in the United States is very large. At present, about 654.38 billion doses of vaccines have been vaccinated in the world, but most of them occur in rich countries, and which poor countries have no vaccines to fight. As a result, more than 65,438+000 countries * * * applied to the World Trade Organization for COVID-19 vaccine patent exemption. The United States rejected this application before, but recently, after fierce internal quarrels, they decided to do so. So, what impact will this have on the global anti-epidemic?

1. The developing countries in the world can use this patent for free.

What if this patent is abandoned? What about countries where other developing countries can't get vaccines? They can produce their own vaccines, so that they won't be unable to buy them for various economic reasons.

2. The inoculation speed is greatly accelerated.

Then, if other countries can produce their own vaccines instead of waiting for these big countries to sell them, the vaccination rate in the world will be much faster, so that COVID-19 all over the world can pass the customs as soon as possible.

3. The profitability of vaccine companies has deteriorated.

However, at this price, companies that make a lot of money from producing vaccines will greatly reduce their profitability. There are not so many people waiting in line to buy it, so this is bad news for the original vaccine production companies in the world, but it is very good news for the health of all mankind.
