The Economist has an interesting map of the world colored by predicted vaccination ability: https://i.redd.it/2fuq0qge0y461.jpg

TL;DR: Large parts of the world won't have vaccines available to the general population until 2023.

Whoever designed that map really had a grudge against people with red-green color blindness. I see two colors.

I thought color blind people would configure the color blind mode in their OS? Is it not common or is it just bad?

Can the US spend money to speed this along? With a vaccine or two in hand, I don't see why we wouldn't do it if it is possible. We'd easily make back $50 billion or whatever, it's not even an economic question.
