Does the FDA have a good track record of inspecting things? Like I don't trust the private healthcare market for anything but wondering on how much time and resources the FDA has for looking to this hypothetical vaccine. Feel like gov regulating body might be so defanged and defunded to be very affective nowadays. Still might take it if free though.
The FDA is actually a little more cautious than regulators in other countries (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5680823/). But they aren't applying the usual criteria this time around so who knows?
Career FDA positions are pretty hard to get into, and the US has a huge talent pool. They are also some of the best in the world in their fields. Europe divides the task up among too many countries.
A worldwide wide one would be the end goal. Totally top of the field from the entire planet. Let the eggheads win.

The conservative Australian government is waiting until March 2021 to start vaccinations, in part to use the UK and potential US as test sites.
