It would be impossible anyway, it will take at least 6 months to create enough doses.

I'm not too worried about it. Australia is the best prepared of any country and absolute worst case scenario estimates about a quarter of us will catch it... we only need 5 million doses..
Also although the numbers are bad.. worst case scenario is 1-2% of the world dies. Yes i know how fucked up this is.. it's a large chunk of humanity..100 million people.. but i say it in context to your suggestion that everyone is going to get it. Just thank your lucky stars you're in an advanced western nation and not a poor third world asian country.
