Read on Twitter
I love how people on Twitter are deciding, with patently false data, on how much profit a company should make.
I am pretty sure they would also be OK with the govt deciding and fixing what their salary should be and how much they should earn in a month.

Pricing a Vaccine depends on a lot of inputs. The manufacturing facilities, the storage cost, the development costs etc. Do we know how much it costs to deactivate a virus? Do we know how much it takes to scale it up for production? The cost of trial & distribution.
Probably No

But we quickly jump the gun on heaping abuse on a company making profits
And it& #39;s not like as if people don& #39;t have options. They can get it for free at the State govt hospitals. The higher end is for private hospitals, which looks OK
But no, a company making profits is wrong

And making vaccines is tough. If it wasn& #39;t, there wouldn& #39;t be a 300 cr Vaccine manufacturing plant outside Chennai, rotting away in glory

But we want to vilify private players
It& #39;s not as if the industrialists will take it home and spend it on a palace with an infinity pool. Most will reinvest, developing more facilities, and taking one more step towards Vaccine self sufficiency.

There was a ship whose engines refused to start. No matter what they did, the engines wouldn& #39;t start. As a last resort, they called this veteran shipping engineer to solve it.
He took a look at it, tapped a certain component, three times with a hammer.
The engines started.

Next day, he sent the shipping company an invoice of $20,000. The shipping company was aghast & asked him for a cost break up
He said, $1000 for tapping the hammer. $19000 for knowing where to tap
We should be grateful that we have people in this country, who know where to tap
