Doesn't imply they don't already have the tech or couldn't implement the tech for cold distribution (which has been greatly improved from where it started even in the US)



> Doesn't imply they don't already have the tech or couldn't implement the tech for cold distribution

I think you've forgotten that you're the one arguing that Africa's experience with contagion means they're ahead on the logistical hurdles for distributing this particular vaccine. :) You have yet to explain how that experience is relevant for tackling these cold distribution challenges, especially in light of the countries' extreme levels of poverty and corruption.

I understand the impulse to cheer for third world countries, but we can be realistic about their challenges while also opposing poverty and prejudice.
