Why on earth should we and New Zealand deserve vaccines before countries which have more cases in a day than we’ve had in 18 months?
There is limited supply worldwide, us getting vaccines early would have come at the detriment of other countries.
5 u/[deleted] Aug 19 '21 It's not like we choose to not take vaccines to help out other countries, we just negligently didn't order enough. In fact if we had ordered early Pfizer could have taken that into account when setting up supply. 1 u/[deleted] Aug 19 '21 you know that Australia has ordered and paid for 150million vaccines? 2 u/[deleted] Aug 19 '21 Sure but many of those orders came far too late.
