Time to sit down and make it!

Last month, researchers from the Texas Children’s Hospital and Baylor College of Medicine developed a new vaccine that they released patent-free to the entire world. This vaccine being patent-free means that the entire world can make and distribute it as needed, without paying outrageous sums or even culturally significant artifacts to predatory pharmaceutical companies in exchange. Lack of a patent-free vaccine was a major barrier to getting worldwide vaccination rates up, and this has the potential to close gaps where greed had previously encouraged the virus to spread and mutate.

We will absolutely be able to travel again someday.
