From what I have heard about the development of COVID vaccines, the research started with the SARS outbreak.  All that was needed was a sample of the COVID virus - provided by the Peter Doherty Institute - and testing could get underway.  Government bureaucracy, albeit the CSIRO, was heavily involved.

However, I think that LP has a valid point about Governments and forward planning.  They are wedded to the election cycle and refuse to provide long term funding for future-proofing exercises, be they health, housing, education, energy, environment, etc.

The problem with the syringes is not quantity; there are more than enough.  It's that the syringes we have waste a small amount of vaccine with every injection.  The Federal Government is trying to source syringes that minimise that wastage.  Inefficient? Probably.  Incompetent? Not really.

Syringes may well be a thing of the past with the nano patch technology the way of the future. Doesn't solve the immediate shortage though.

Well, it happened... I saw footage of anti-vaxxers and sure enough, couple puffing on a cigarette and a number morbidly obese folks (with apologies if it is a medical condition and not a result of gorging).

If that's in any way perfected, it would save millions of lives

The grandmother of a work colleague of Mrs Baggers had her Pfizer Covid shot on Saturday night and was found dead yesterday. She was elderly and her only allergy was penicillin. A pretty shattered family.  :(

Where was this?  The first Australian jabs are happening now.

No Cookie, think I read something about being set in the Arctic or similar...is it a Zombie series?

Not a zombie series but is set in the Arctic. It is very relevant to your woolly mammoth story but I won't spoil the plot in case you want to watch it. I really enjoyed it.
Reality always wins in the end.
