Bored Lawyer asked how much revenue NP is talking
Post# of 148133
What do we know so far? We know the Philippines reserved 200,000 vials. We know that each hospital has been "allotted" 100 courses. I think there are about 750 hospitals in the country, though NP said 1000. So what would make sense?
Let's say each hospital gets on the average 50 courses. That's 35,000 courses. If they do as Dr. Nicholas suggests, then it would be 4 doses per patient; but let's use 3 doses for a conservative average -- I don't think, for example, that ex-Prez Estrada got 4 shots. That would mean 105,000 courses -- just about right, if they are reserving 200,000 vials.
I'm not sure (again -- you can see the brain fog settling in) what the price would be, but I think I remember Dr. Nicholas saying $750 per dose. If so, it would be about $78 million in revenues for CSPs to the Philippines alone.
This exercise in enumerating chickens while they still reside in eggs has been brought to you by our Just Thinking Out Loud department. It would be nice, though.
