By this model vaccines are sadly "too effective" on two counts:
- They are preventative. Americans are scared that regular people walk into hospitals and debt peons walk out. We are too sickly and scared for preventative medicine, and like our infrastructure which is never maintained to the point of being in "good working order".
- They are O(1) dose. The unity economics of once-and-done is bad. Better to sell something which makes a customer for life.
