Is Astra Zeneka TOO cheap??

Could the problems astra zeneka faces trying to market it's vaccine
to the world be that it is TOO cheap??
The USA is unlikely to be using astra zeneka in it's vaccination
programne says us medical chief, although it ticks most of the boxes
There has been much resistance world wide to fully accept the AZ
vaccine despite all medical control bodies giving AZ the all
clear for use ??
The resistance seems to come from different countries leaders
sowing seeds of doubt against their own medical experts opinion ?Why should this be?
Being the cheapest vaccine available, you would think that leaders
would be clamouring to use AZ??
So l ask,. Is AZ TOO CHEAP??
Is there not enough fat in the price for the facilitation paymentsts
and excessive profits that BIG PHARMA have come to expect??

As l have said on here before.. l read in a newspaper article where the Pfizer vaccination is £10 and referred to as the Porsche.

The AstraZeneca is around £2 and is referred to as, the Fiat.

I had both AZ jabs, I am fine no problems. If it works why worry about the cost.

Re: Is Astra Zeneka TOO cheap??

As I've said earlier on, over here, hardly anybody cares about the price because the jabs are free of charge. All they are interested in is that it's safe, i.e. without any dangerous side-effects like thromboses. After AZ, now Johnson&Johnson is reported to have led to thromboses within a timespan that can't be dismissed as irrelevant. So, at the moment, people clearly prefer the mRNA vaccines of BionTech and Moderna. Things might change as soon as similar side-effects are reported.

It's "FREE" in UK too Dachs ??
But? We will all be paying next year in "stealth " taxes etc !!
Our government's have borrowed the money on our behalf !!
so obviously the price is relevent isn't it??
Huge profits are being made from charging top dollar for what is
basically the same thing!!
So much profit that there is plenty to use for lubricating the sales
campaign ??
What side effects do you talk about, surely NOT the •2% blood clot
non issue?

So far so good, it was 20 hours after I had the first one that the side effects kicked in. One moment I was fine the next BAM, it was pure luck I was at home and able to fall into bed. At lunch time tomorrow I'll be crossing everything that's crossable I won't be ill again.
Thanks for asking.
