> we're going to see the world's best institutions and minds working on vaccines and treatments with essentially unlimited funding and top priority.

Trump was caught out trying to buy a CureVac, who are working on a vaccine, to corner the market and make it only available to America https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/europe/germany-coronavi...

Will we see a vaccine? Maybe. At pumped up costs? Most definitely

I think it's worth noting that the corporation is trying to do the right thing, even as pushed by the US government to act unethically. Don't always expect that corporations are evil, or that governments will protect us from that.
