Speaking on a World Economic Forum panel, Moderna CEO Stéphane Bancel, admits to having prior knowledge in 2019 that there would be a "pandemic" in 2020. "Moderna had made 100,000 doses in 2019, for the whole year. And I remember walking, after Davos, into the office of my head of manufacturing and I said "how will we make a billion doses next year?", and he looked at me a bit funny and said "what?". I said "yeah, we need to make a billion doses next year, there's going to be a pandemic."
And just in case anyone needs to be reminded, the NIH owns 50% of Moderna's vaccine patent.
There's your public/private partnership at work!
