Pfizer financed the entire project and owns the intellectual properties. Moderna took money upfront and sold the right to the USA. It's that simple.

I REFUSE THEIR UNPROVEN VACCINE. I read that the German or European vaccine is effective in Europe/ the U.K. only. And further saw a nurse in Tennessee facility I believe was on tv camera video’d saying how happy she was she and her nurses got vaccinated — because they work in COVID UNIT. THEN SHE SAID SHE FELT DIZZY TOUCHED HER FOREHEAD. STOOD UP AND COLLAPSED TO THE FLOOR. With doctors rushing to her unconscious form.

Cost do we know. We hear the government will give to the population for free. Nothing is free. It will be added to your tax bill and or to the growing national debt. Either the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine are two shots. It is unclear if we will need boosters in the future. Will those boosters also be paid for by the government? When, you will be able to get the vaccine, will you be able to choose which one? Again I am not an expert. Rumor is that Johnson and Johnson has one that is only one injection. Risk? We all demand exact answers yes, or no. We do not realize that everything has risk. You go to pick up your mail. If, you choose to walk, you can trip, you can get hit by a car, bit by a dog, hit by a car, hit by a golf cart, a bike. Even run over by a camel I suppose is possible.

I did not know that. I just want to know where we can get the Vaccine here in the Villages. I am extremely immunosuppressed and I need it quickly if possible.

In July, Pfizer got a $1.95 billion deal with the government’s Operation Warp Speed, the multiagency effort to rush a vaccine to market, to deliver 100 million doses of the vaccine. The arrangement was an advance-purchase agreement, meaning that the company would not get paid until they deliver the vaccines. Pfizer did not accept federal funding to help develop or manufacture the vaccine, unlike front-runners Moderna and AstraZeneca. So yes they did not accept any money for development but they did get an advance purchase agreement. They also as reported yesterday entered into another $2billion purchase agreement with the government for the purchase of 100 million more doses to be available before July 2021. Whether they accepted funding for development was their choice |

The U.S. paid $456 million in funds for Johnson & Johnson's vaccine, paid Moderna's almost a billion bucks for their candidate vaccine, $1.2 billion in support for AstraZeneca's candidate vaccine, $1.6 billion in funds to support the large-scale manufacturing of Novavax's vaccine candidate, $1.95 billion in funds to Pfizer for the large-scale manufacturing and nationwide distribution of 100 million doses of their vaccine candidate(july22), approximately $2 billion in funds to support the advanced development, including clinical trials and large scale manufacturing, of Sanofi and GlaxoSmithKline's (GSK) investigational adjuvanted vaccine, etc. etc.
The reason we did not PRE-order more vaccine doses is that we did not know who would come up with a viable vaccine candidate so we ordered something like a million doses each from about five or six different pharmas with the option of ordering more. There was no use pre-ordering from one company not knowing if they would have a successful vaccine candidate. I realize that the idea is to disparage our Gov. for the past four years in an attempt to manipulate politics, but the fact is that this is an amazing accomplishment and we and the world was lucky to have America's leadership to push for results so fast and to cut the red tape that usually slows things down to years instead of months.

when I got a cortisone shot in my hip. It's called a vagal nerve response and happens to random people following an injection (usually a vaccine, but really any injection can trigger it). It had never happened to me before, was completely unexpected, and I recovered within a few minutes after sitting back on the exam office reclining chair, having a dixie cup of water, and the doctor setting a cool wet cloth on my forehead. |

We've evolved since then. We've DEvolved a bit over time, but we do keep progressing forward. This mess with the virus is one example of devolution. If we had remained members of WHO, we might have had more vaccines available to us from the get-go. If we had paid attention to the trends of science rather than the trends of fear and hatred, our country might have been better off than it is now. How much better? Who knows. We won't know, because we were not giving the opportunity to know. The people responsible for making those decisions chose to not do what science suggested, once science determined there were actual steps to take. Until then, they could only say "this doesn't seem to be needed" or "that doesn't seem to be a problem." When they finally realized it was a problem, and something needed to be done, the people responsible for decision-making chose to believe all the people who said "BUT YOU SAID YESTERDAY...therefore you don't know anything!" And here we are now, arguing over who gets first dibs on the vaccine. |
