It was "created in a weekend" like I might get this quarter's big new API done in a weekend. Still gotta test, document, bicker over variable names, etc. I imagine "created" is as small a fraction of vaccine development as prototyping code is of software engineering.

As to say, not very "created in a weekend."

Like, after a weekend it existed.

Very much ‘created in a weekend.’

It’s a choice whether you do a year long three phase trial. Or not. The vaccine (recipe) still exists.
