      I know it's hard to imagine this, after months of shortages. But the numbers are there. US overbooked vaccines—we didn't know which would work. Now we do. The supply of approved ones made *here* will soon exceed our population. Let's let go of ones that won't be approved in time.

      Also, for people asking. The variants are part of the argument for why we should vaccinate globally, as fast as possible, but key reason is because they cause enormous suffering now, and exponential threats are best countered early.

      Let me repeat. These vaccines in our warehouses are not approved for the United States. They will not be approved in time. Dude in my mentions who thinks I should feel stupid because they're used in Georgia? You live in Atlanta, Georgia. They are approved in Georgia, the country.pic.twitter.com/e1CDTXjJOc

      Yep. They have been manufactured. They cannot be used here. US trial isn't over, let alone approval. They are approved in 140+ countries through a global initiative. We also have 100+ million Novavax (all excess) in the pipeline that won't make it in time. https://twitter.com/david1watson/status/1372171700469706752 …

      It is a jarring shift from shortages but it is reality. Just Pfizer & Moderna are on track for 600 million doses by July. J&J supply is 10+ million per month. We have 100 million Novavax in the pipeline. US only has 260 million vaccine eligible people. https://twitter.com/Valentine721/status/1372184003063726087 …

      Remember how upset we got when we hard a few doses here and there were being wasted? US has at least thirty, likely about sixty million, *already manufactured* doses of vaccines that cannot be used here (no approval) and will NOT be approved in time. We can send them out today.

      Most likely holdup here is the political perception. The administration doesn't want to be seen as sending vaccines while shortages are working their way through. But we can do the math here—these won't be approved in time—and give political support to the smart and humane path.

      zeynep tufekci Retweeted Josh Wingrove

      Yes, of course. Soon enough we will be discussing giving away more of our excess because our pipeline truly exceeds our population likely by hundreds of millions. But, we can do that next month. These are doses needed NOW that we cannot and will not use.https://twitter.com/josh_wingrove/status/1372187510248509452 …

      NEWS: Mexico and Canada are at the top of the list for U.S. vaccine exports, whenever they begin, per a US official. Biden said yesterday he's already speaking with countries about this. Mexico asked this week for AstraZeneca shots. Story on @TheTerminal.

      Look, the US will release these vaccines we clearly won't use—eventually. They won't be approved in time here. The only question is timing. My point is we should do it NOW, especially with more transmissible variants spreading. A vaccine today is worth more than one in a month.

      To folks saying AZ is an inferior vaccine so we shouldn't give it away even if we can't use it. "Not approved yet because US trial not concluded" doesn't mean inferior. Novavax looks spectacular (from trials elsewhere) but also not approved here because trial not concluded...+

      Why would you choose to endanger others with a vaccine that has not gone through even the minimal rigors of safety testing we currently have? If we cannot release it here because of safety reasons, it should not be sent to jeopardize others for safety reasons elsewhere,either.

          Millions of people worldwide have been vaccinated by AZ with no ill-effect. Refusing to vaccinate people is what jeopardizes them!

          Understand that concern but the UK and the EU have strict safety regimes too and it’s passed those already.
