Unscramble the Blue Letters


Let's take another example. If we develop a product with eluqabtie acsces in mind, we might be able to optimize for mass distribution faster. In high-income countries, we have strong health systems capacity. We can always distribute products the way we want. So we often take for granted that pctdours can be stored in temperature-controlled environments or rqreuies a higlhy silkeld health care worker for amtiaiondrstin. Of course, temperature-controlled evntnmrioens and highly skilled health care workers are not available everywhere. If we were to approach R and D with the constraints of weaker htaleh systems in mind, we might get creative and develop sooner, for instance, temperature-agnostic products or products that can be taken as easily as a vitamin or long-lasting formulations instead of repeat doses. If we were able to produce and develop such simplified tools, it would have the added benefit of putting less strains on hospitals and health systems for both high- and low-income countries.

Let's take another example. If we develop a product with _________ ______ in mind, we might be able to optimize for mass distribution faster. In high-income countries, we have strong health systems capacity. We can always distribute products the way we want. So we often take for granted that ________ can be stored in temperature-controlled environments or ________ a ______ _______ health care worker for ______________. Of course, temperature-controlled ____________ and highly skilled health care workers are not available everywhere. If we were to approach R and D with the constraints of weaker ______ systems in mind, we might get creative and develop sooner, for instance, temperature-agnostic products or products that can be taken as easily as a vitamin or long-lasting formulations instead of repeat doses. If we were able to produce and develop such simplified tools, it would have the added benefit of putting less strains on hospitals and health systems for both high- and low-income countries.

Original Text


Let's take another example. If we develop a product with equitable access in mind, we might be able to optimize for mass distribution faster. In high-income countries, we have strong health systems capacity. We can always distribute products the way we want. So we often take for granted that products can be stored in temperature-controlled environments or requires a highly skilled health care worker for administration. Of course, temperature-controlled environments and highly skilled health care workers are not available everywhere. If we were to approach R and D with the constraints of weaker health systems in mind, we might get creative and develop sooner, for instance, temperature-agnostic products or products that can be taken as easily as a vitamin or long-lasting formulations instead of repeat doses. If we were able to produce and develop such simplified tools, it would have the added benefit of putting less strains on hospitals and health systems for both high- and low-income countries.
