It would be important to beat the Americans to it in that case if their plan is to withhold both the work behind the vaccine rather than simply any vaccines created. There is a moral duty for whichever research team finds the successful one to tell everyone else how they did it, it's contemptible for Trump to withhold it.

This I would agree with. This is a global issue and we need to help out each other. This is a good test - the Bible continually says that we ignore the poor to our detriment and some of the poorest are not in the West. A vaccine that can be sent worldwide and help especially those nations that do not have the healthcare we do would be good to do and likely to our benefit. Both with God's blessing but because those countries we do help will remember it.
