"Executive Order" - by Tom Clancy

How many people will want to be injected with a vaccine developed in a Chinese lab if they are the first to have it.? Will the country that develops the vaccine first share it or keep it until everyone in their country is vaccinated first ? Originally Posted by Oilrig

There is no advantage to be gained - and a lot of reputation and money to be lost - by withholding a vaccine to cure all of your people first. Your factories won't produce vaccine any faster by preventing foreign factories from producing vaccines at the same time. You will delay others from saving their own lives, but you won't realize any advantage to yourself.

In fact, in all likelihood, you will be killing your own customers and/or suppliers by letting foreigners to continued to die needlessly.

Dr. Scott Gottleib was on the morning talk shows reminding people the H1N1 vaccine paid for with US dollars was withheld

His qoute from 2009

Dr. Scott Gottleib said Canadian authorities had asked GlaxoSmithKline (GSK.L) to ensure it would fill Canadian orders from its factory in Quebec before filling the U.S. order for 7.6 million doses. Likewise, Australian vaccine maker CSL (CSL.AX) was asked to ensure the Australian supply before filling U.S. orders.
Many experts have cautioned that in the event of a very serious pandemic, countries would be likely to seize any vaccines made within their own territories.
