I would not rely on medical service anywhere in the world and get an oxygen concentrator for some $200.

It's not that factories can't make any quantity of o2, the problem are bottlenecks. Down to nurses who forget to change on time bottles, as it was reported from around the world

Time to worry.

They don't know what the demand might be yet?

So pure speculation and hope .

"we dont need to join COVAX because we will have enough domestic vaccine production..."

Exactly this.

Which translated means

"The oxygen producers are having trouble meeting demand"

But do they have the capacity to meet a level of demand of (say) 100k infections per day?
