Pfizer has a process to develop variant-specific vaccines just 95 days after identification of the variant, CEO Albert Bourla said.
Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla said on Tuesday that there will likely be a COVID-19 variant that is resistant to the vaccine, but that his company would be able to get a variant-specific shot out in about three months.
"Every time that the variant appears in the world, our scientists are getting their hands around it," Bourla said on Fox News' America's Newsroom. "They are researching to see if this variant can escape the protection of our vaccine. We haven't identified any yet but we believe that it is likely that one day, one of them will emerge."
Pfizer has a process that would take 95 days to develop a variant-specific vaccine from the identification of the variant, Bourla said.
In February, Bourla told Fortune that a vaccine-resistant variant was possible.
"Theoretically, it's a very possible scenario. If you protect a very big part of the population, and if there is a strain that emerges that can use this pool of population to replicate while the current strains cannot, obviously this will overtake the original. So it's not a certainty, but it is now, I believe, a likely scenario," he said.
The day of Bourla's interview with Fox News, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released a report that found COVID-19 vaccines dropped from 91% effectiveness before the Delta variant to 66% effectiveness during the peak of the variant. The study included 4,217 participants who were fully vaccinated, with 65% having received the Pfizer vaccine, 33% Moderna, and 2% Johnson&Johnson.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted full approval for the Pfizer vaccine for people ages 16 and up a day before Bourla's remarks, which is the first COVID-19 vaccine to be authorized beyond the stage of emergency use only.
“Fauci told us which one is next on tap.”
Ping.
Translation: Govt money needs to keep coming to us forever and ever.
In fact, we’ve already ordered it from China. It should be ready soon.
Duh.. the vax is only what 40% effective?
I thought it was Illegal and Wrong to divulge classified information especially Top Secret stuff, they have at least 3 or 4 variants coming and 1 different Corona for next year to get the un-poisoned and naturally immune. Soon everyone will need Monthly DNA Spike Updates.
Holy Marek’s Disease, Batman!
That’s what I’m beginning to think.
ok mr ceo. so then why, pray tell, continue spewing mass quantities of vaccine. we got good treatments, we can cover the elderly and compromised already.
The new variant would be here sooner but the lab required mandatory vaccinations and half the lab staff quit.
;-)
So, upon the emergence of a vaccine resistant variant, we can expect a 3-month lock down until they produce a vaccine. Ok...
Again.........................And again....................And again...............
š
Iām hoping for a bullshit resistant variant.
Covid Vaccines every year!
Or Else!
this has the movie “groundhog day” written all over it...
annnnd 1 1/2 year after the resistant variant, the ceo will announce Another vaccine resistant variant will ‘soon be emerging’, and the msm will hysterically declare it’s presence in texas and florida only-
Around and around and around we go

Looks like the are going to skip the alphabet soap variants and go straight to the global killer end game variant.
It’s the only way to be sure that Dems can cheat in 2022/2024 elections with impunity. The recipe for permanent mail-in voting and lock-downs.
