Notice the Vic State Gov is now making noise on funding CSL to make mRNA, surprise, surprise. 
We'd discussed here that CSL was potentially milking the Federal AstraZeneca funds first, to get the pre-existing outdated kit upgraded and modernised, and that there would be further/new government investment required to kit up for mRNA.
Get what you want first, then what you really need next, I guess we were right!
The $50M is the tip of the iceberg, sorry for the cynicism.
btw., Do not confuse corporate greed with the vaccine efficacy, the scientists are genuine, the high level executives and bureaucrats not so much!
Ive often wondered if this hasnt been one giant social engineering experiment.
Ive seen the following reactions which have always made me concerned:
1. Its just a virus, treat it and move on.
2. We can treat it with Remdesivir and Ivermectin.
3. We need a vaccine, heres one that we want to administer but the public are reluctant lets give them a false one first like AZ.
4. Manufacture genetic modificating ones like Pfizer and because of AZ shortfall, they will want Pfizer.
Interesting.
Ive seen various different modes of reaction from the public all craving something no one had ever heard of 18 months ago.
Without going into the debate regarding what the science shows, its very interesting social behaviour occurring. I still believe the best answer is to wait and observe.
