I agree with you, why would anyone research a vaccine for free? These are doctors who spend a long time studying in university. Also researching a vaccine doesn't guarantee you success. It's possible you spend months - in which you have to pay rent, salaries, equipment, etc. - just to be successful in the end. And just by looking at the flu vaccine each yeahr for elderly people and how many lives they are saving I don't get it how people be against vaccines. To be honest most people just want to be trolling, they don't even believe in what they are saying, all about being against mainstream.
There is no problem with paying a decent amount to find a "vaccine" but when US taxpayers have to fund over $1000m (1000 x $1,000,000) of "research funds" into the Johnson & Johnson company and no one is scrutinizing this thing, and J&J are not obligated to find a vaccine, they are not obligated to ensure even such a "vaccine" is safe to use, and they are not obligated to return the funds they got paid - well in that case why wouldn't you expect people to go against that "mainstream"?
And by the way, who exactly decided that what they do is the "mainstream"? You decided that's the "right" way to think?
