There is a time and place, to put mass greed, and lust for money aside. That time, is during a pandemic, when billions of people, all across our planet, are dying. 😢🌏 🥀⚰️ @JoeBiden @WhiteHouse @KamalaHarris 🤷🏻‍♂️

How much money Kamala can wring out of Big Pharma by making this empty threat.

Who owns the property? Is it okay if I photocopied and scanned your books and sold them for profit? Also ... US Patent Law International Trade Agreements Future negotiations with China and other countries over honoring Intellectual Property Rights or trade marks. @CNBC

They have to consider that if they take away the incentive to create new medicines/vaccines, the next time we need one there will not be one. Better for the world to pay for the poor countries vaccines.

Stop Considering ... just lift them ... you are talking about saving millions of lives!
