Also COVID started mutating before the vaccines were even approved. YOU don't understand vaccines or COVID. Not to mention you couldn't even get a vaccine in time in some countries because of vaccines companies, copyright, and capitalism more broadly.
Because capital got injected like crazy (and improved technology) pharmaceutical companies managed to create a vaccine in record time. Claiming that capitalism caused delays is beyond short sighted.
Covid, like all life, mutates all the time, though few mutations make it big. Covid did manage to slowly mutatie due to the amount of people getting sick which was mainly caused by idiot politicians (hello Trump!) That didn't wanted to isolate, or thought that Covid was a scam or something.
I do understand the basics of vaccines and Covid, because i read medical journals. It doesn't matter though, because more importantly, I listen to the experts and I don't read Facebook conspiracy posts or the "lone wolf's doctors who know better than all experts who says that they want to enslave you!!"
If everyone had listened to the experts, Covid would have caused a lot less casualties, especially in the US where the orange retard caused so much death and suffering that he might as well get a nice place ect to hitler in hell.
I am not talking about the development of the vaccine, I am talking about deploying it worldwide. Some countries couldn't afford it. Others didn't have the right infrastructure and personnel to use it even if they could Because of that and some political issues some countries took to making their own including Cuba and Russia.
I don't follow conspiracy theorists. I don't understand why you keep bringing them up.
