I would be one of them. The only issue I have is that I believe we should also be in (at least partial) control of the means of development and production, and not leave that solely in the hands of outside corporations that prioritize profits.

Cooperation with others is essential and should still be encouraged of course, but it would be nice to also see domestic production of vaccines and safety equipment in cases of shortages like we'd seen with covid.
