MODERATORS
It goes farther than that, because of how aggressively the US has resisted drug imports and fear mongered against foreign science and development.
The post-COVID "vaccine diplomacy" of European and Chinese state pharmaceutical providers (hell, Cuba even developed a variant) was matched with a flood of early US reporting that amounted to "don't trust any vaccine that isn't American!!!" Then there was a dirty war between domestic providers over whose vaccine was the best.
All that propaganda took its toll.
Cuba has some of the best doctors in the world. They have a potential lung cancer vaccine in trials. Imagine what they could do if the sanctions were lifted.
