Boris Johnson, bless his heart, has proposed setting up research institutes to produce new vaccines in 100 days, in case another virus emerges. I do not admire Johnson, but that seems like a great idea. Just what the world needs! A much more virulent virus might emerge, that could quickly kill millions of people. An emergency 100-day vaccine development schedule might save millions of lives. We can all hunker down in deep shut-downs with canned food and social distancing for 100 days. We can't do that for a year, obviously. This institute would have to be coupled with vaccine factory production lines maintained and ready, whether we need them or not.
If Johnson pulls this off he will be one of the UK's greatest Prime Ministers, whatever else he does. I think Biden would be inclined to go along with this plan.
