HUGE NEWS: Thanks to the public-private partnership forged by President @realDonaldTrump, @pfizer announced its Coronavirus Vaccine trial is EFFECTIVE, preventing infection in 90% of its volunteers.— Mike Pence (@Mike_Pence) November 9, 2020
As Pence claims credit, Pfizer says it did NOT join in the administration's partnership.
Pfizer head of vaccine development Dr. Kathrin Jansen told the NY Times: “We were never part of the Warp Speed ... We have never taken any money from the U.S. government, or from anyone.” https://t.co/GScL3vodx9— Geoff Bennett (@GeoffRBennett) November 9, 2020
Hi Geoff,
On Sept. 24 NBC News reported public-private partnership between Pfizer & Trump admin: "Pfizer... secured a $1.95 billion purchase agreement with [HHS] for the first 100 million doses produced."
Why are you falsely dunking on Pence for reminder? Do you need the link? https://t.co/RuVLYgd9PS— Omri Ceren (@omriceren) November 9, 2020
Ah, the lying media frauds are at it again. Now, they pretend that the progress on a vaccine just happened, Trump has nothing to do with it. Also, funny how Pfizer waited until after the election to make their latest announcement. https://t.co/CuV6CC5Ggk— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) November 9, 2020

FYI a lot of people are tweeting about how Pfizer didn’t accept government money for this vaccine. This isn’t true. HHS did a $2 billion deal with Pfizer to guarantee a market for the vaccine, making Pfizer’s R&D spend viable. Classic public/private partnership.
It’s really gonna look bad when Biden’s in prison.
They also announced that vaccinations would be free. Now we know that the US government, you and I, subsidized if not wholly paid for it.
Just heard some good news from John McLaughlin on Mark Simone’s show.
RE: NBC News reported public-private partnership between Pfizer & Trump admin
This headline makes it sound like Trump and members of his administration are profiting from the Pfizer vaccine.
So this USA article in July indicating Pfizer received 2 billion for warp speed is wrong. Big drug hates Trump. If Pfizer announced this success last week , we would not be recounting votes. Trump would have won. I would not be surprised if they delayed the announcement until after the election to deny him the advantage.
What? Chris Murphy corrected it?
And Pfizer themsleves wrote they were under operation warp speed in a tweet. I put up another article on it.
Yeah, it was that bald a lie.
I did not see where he was a guest on Mark’s show today.
What is the good news? Can always use that ;)
