the virus is killing tens of thousands a day. You want a vaccine as fast as possible? This is it. BUT...

Take it or leave. The, say $2 Billion in, profits that AstraZeneca can make from the vaccine don't justify being sued by 3 billion people for every headache or miscarriage. Or for real problems it may cause. By the way, in USA vaccine suits are settled by a special fund https://www.hrsa.gov/vaccine-compensation/index.html otherwise no one would make them.

There hasn't been a single day with over ten thousand worldwide deaths from corona so far.
