I like it so far. Don't know about the premises though. Even if they find the guy with the cure the next day I assume it would be hard to get the antidote/cure to everyone in the world logistically in time. And that is if they don't have to produce it first.
Yeah...I work in pharma manufacturing and there is no way, lol. However, that would have been true of the original rollout of the medicine too. So, you would have to prioritize the people that got the first doses of the drug, then work your way down.
The two biggest hurdles realistically in this scenario would be 1. finding an effective antidote and 2. having regulators clear your path for manufacturing/distribution as quick as possible. Then, it is a more solvable problem to scale up (like was done with covid vaccines). 30 days would still be tough for some kinds of treatments though. Even if you had an effective molecule to manufacture, if it was a biologic, you are looking at 6+ months to get a proper cell line established before you can scale up.
Just as an aside, as a physicist, I am pretty used to bending the rules of science to fit a narrative. However, I think this is one of the first times I have been confronted with bending the rules of drug testing/clinical trials in anime. Part of the clinical trial process is to very clearly determine how/where your drug and all of its components are either consumed or removed from the body. So, the idea that this drug was able to lie dormant for years and surprise everybody had me rolling my eyes for sure.
