Brian and Prof. Wolff discuss the deadly consequences of  the U.S. government's stubborn refusal so far to waive patents  preventing developing countries from producing their own Coronavirus  vaccines -- all to protect the profits of the big pharmaceutical  corporations.

Richard Wolff is the co-founder of the organization  Democracy at Work and the author of many books, the latest being “The  Sickness is the System: When Capitalism Fails to Save Us from Pandemics  or Itself”. You can check out his work at rdwolff.com
