Joja (who has me on ignore): You say "Brazil isn't playing around with this trial because they wouldn't have reserved 700,000 vials if they thought it would fail."
Here is why you are not quite right about the vials having anything to do with it: Did it cost Brazil anything up front to reserve those vials? I am thinking probably not, it was simply a part of the negotiation for Brazil actually RUNNING these trials. Now, if they had to pay upfront $1,000 for each vial that they reserved in advance, then I could see your argument being a bit stronger. But why would a country say "Sure, we'll run your trial for you" and not build a reserve of the actual vials into the agreement? They wouldn't.
I think it makes more sense to say that Brazil believes in the trial because they are running it.
