U.S. J&J Covid vaccine doses will be sent to Thailand-Myanmar border
Millions of Johnson & Johnson doses have been sitting in warehouses since Emergent BioSolutions, a contract manufacturer, accidentally botched 15 million doses of the shot by mixing it with the AstraZeneca drug substance.

WHO-led programme aims to buy antiviral COVID-19 pills for $10 -document

They admit it!
