"We're starting to run out of certain drugs that can help people fight this thing. We have to find a way to produce these pills until we can develop a vaccine. I'm not talking millions of pills. I am talking hundreds of millions of pills."
What is it going to take to kick-start mass production? Federal endorsement and funding? I wonder if by the time sufficient exquisitely detailed data is collected to satisfy the approval protocols we will have lost many, many lives who might have been saved and tipped our economy into depression. Is our insistence on perfect knowledge the enemy of good enough in this race against time?
