Approved exene by the end of 2021, and it will be given to the countries that are part of the facility, not how can 192 of them roughly 20 percent of their needs for now. And thats actually really important because its never been the case before that innovative Vaccine Technology has made its way from the laboratory, through the clinic, through a big Multinational Corporation or a Chinese Company or an indian company. And then out into Global Health it at roughly the same time that its available in the United States, u. K. And europe. So in a sense, kovacs is a victory for those people who believe in multilateralism in transparency, you know, unfortunately there are 2 big standouts from kovacs. Its the United States and this and russia. Unfortunately, they should join. Well, its interesting that neither of those 2 countries do, and both of those countries obviously have those vaccines. But if you know nothing about vaccines, not as much as you do and youre sitting here watching this, a
