作为一个曾经的专利工作者，谈点个人意见：
一是WTO只是评估是否提议罢了。因为WTO既不是专利的授予有权主体（国家），也不是专利的拥有者。之所以提议，主要是因为Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS)是在WTO协议之下的，成员国不能违背。
二、一般情况下，专利申请有一个公示期，也就是说，专利是公开的，但是这不意味着专利拥有者有义务公开超出专利说明书的技术细节，除非是人家愿意；
三、庄时利和博主最后的话是对的，即便公开工艺，但是因为设备、原材料、员工培训等都不是一蹴而就的，仿制出来是有难度和需要时间的。
四、庄博主的科普挺好的，但是在专利方面可能不是很了解。看到帖子，还是应该溯源并思考一下。CGTN报道如下：
The World Trade Organization (WTO) members will assess a proposal to waive patent rights on COVID-19 vaccines on Wednesday. Sponsors of the waiver said the temporary suspension would allow more factories worldwide to produce the vaccine without breaking the rules under the WTO agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS).
The proposal to ease up on patent protections for vaccines was submitted by South Africa and India in October and is backed by 60 WTO members.
