First off, I don't work for any of the big pharma companies. We own a little stock in a very small one, but that's it.

The gov't. does nothing to develop or distribute drugs to help the population.
It is all private industry. The mega lawsuits of years ago are the reason there is now less than a handful of quality vaccine makers today. Taking any vaccine requires risk, no matter what. Many 'big pharma' companies just decided "F*** it, it's not worth the financial risk to do this anymore when we develop something wonderful at great expense in R&D, test it, get it FDA approved and one person dies for likely another reason and any profit we may have made is taken out by one huge 'award' for ridiculous millions. Even if we appeal it, the lawyers end up taking all the money. Fine. Instead, we'll make cheap aspirin and a profit. No more innovation."
