I think operation warp speed was great for getting us to the point of having a vaccine but the distribution part of the plan isn't warp speed. And that's where we've got to make these shifts.

One of the problems in healthcare is elasticity of demand. We learned this in economics. When you increase pricing demand goes down and when you decrease pricing demand goes up. The reality in healthcare is that there is no elasticity. You can raise the price forever but we're still going to that hospital. You can lower the price and it's not going to increase. So it doesn't respond to normal market demands.
