“The good thing is that a lot of the research and development that we need to do to be prepared for the next pandemic is things like making vaccines cheap, having big factories, eradicating the flu, getting rid of the common cold, making vaccines just a little patch… stuff that will be incredibly beneficial even in years when we don’t have pandemics”, he added.
