Imagine the profits Pfizer is going to have. Hell of a quarter.

I'm sure that developing and certifying a drug administered to a large percentage of the population is entirely simple and risk free.
They are not liable for vaccine injuries, so I would call their risk minimal.
If making a vaccine against an historic pandemic doesn’t entitle you to get some profit, what does?
Getting the president of a country to push other countries to take the vaccine is next level go-to-market strategy.

> some profit.

Ha! We’re talking 10s of billions.

Personally, I’m waiting for the Monsanto vaccine before I take it.
