How long does it take to construct and staff a brand new vaccine production facility?


I don’t know, but I know Bill Gates could do it faster than it has ever been done before if he wanted to. Also they could upgrade existing facilities rather than build brand new ones. For example there are facilities I’ve heard of in India and South America which claim they could manufacture the mRNA vaccines. If the details of the vaccine were shared early on and they had help from Gates, I imagine these facilities could have been producing them by now.
