Can the media rather also interview and question the front runner vaccine companies please, about pricing, access, advance orders and tech transfer or pooling- we dont need to really know again how the alcohol industry feels...

#CompulsoryLicenses
Will they share their vaccine know-how? Why not?
Will they issue voluntary licenses to manufacturers to scale up production in the global south?
Do they understand what is at stake if they refuse?
Are they ready for a public backlash and for the possibility that our and other south governments will invoke compulsory licensing measures?
Will they make their pricing data public, and be transparent about all true R&D costs/ing including public funding?
Why have all of them not yet committed to Covax?
How much supplies can they committ ACTUALLY right now? If none/minimal, why are they blocking the TRIPS WAIVER request?
Why do they conduct trials here, if there is no immediate access arrangements?
