we’ll get there eventually, hang in (just like Mama used to make)

October 2021

“Moderna has come under fire for both refusing to share its Covid vaccine technology as well as denying vaccines to poor countries in desperate need. The Covid vaccine is Moderna’s only product — it’s the only thing the company sells. Imagine only making one thing and billions of people want it. This must be how the Baha Men felt after recording ‘Who Let the Dogs Out,’ you know?” —Jimmy Kimmel

“So on Saturday, The Times reported that Moderna ‘has been supplying its shots almost exclusively to wealthy nations, keeping the poorer countries waiting and earning billions of dollars in profit.’ I’m sure that’s just a coincidence, right? [Imitating Moderna spokesperson] ‘Guys! We’re doing it alphabetically: America, Australia, Britain, Canada, Denmark — it’s not our fault the rich countries come first. Zambia, Zimbabwe, we’ll get there eventually, hang in.’” —Jimmy Kimmel

“It is a shame that companies think about profit in a time like this when people are dying. But I get it — if they don't make money doing it this time, they might not bother to work on a vaccine next time.” —Jimmy Kimmel

“Look, man, I get it — Moderna is a business and they want to make money themselves, but at least come up with a better excuse, you know, like the vaccine formula is an old family recipe.” —Trevor Noah

“Apparently, it’s been passed down from generation to generation — just like Mama used to make.” —Jimmy Fallon
