Want A lot Of Covid-19 Vaccines Pfizer Asked? Nah -The Trump Admin. Declined And Now It’s Too Late.
The Trump Administration inexplicable passed on an offer from Pfizer to supply more Covid-19 vaccines. (NY Times)
“Trump administration officials passed when Pfizer offered in late summer to sell the U.S. government additional doses of its Covid-19 vaccine, according to people familiar with the matter. Now Pfizer may not be able to provide more of its vaccine to the United States until next June because of its commitments to other countries, they said.
”
These decisions make little sense to anyone. Did Pfizer contribute to Democrats? Did the CEO not worship at the alter? Was the lull in summer cases enough to convince the Administration that it was really ‘going away’? What possible explanation can explain away the reason that the United States will lack sufficient doses of the Pfizer vaccine? Hopefully the other companies that are also developing their own vaccines will be able to step into the void and alleviate the shortages caused by short sightedness.
