If we could produce just the peptides at scale then everyone is free to produce local vaccines. Not sure if the peptides themselves have the same extreme storage requirements as the vaccines do. If we can give every country the techniques to build their own vaccines we wouldn't depend on mega-corps and some of the "anti-vax" arguments would become moot.
