Pfizer executives said recently that there could be a “significant opportunity” to hike prices of the company’s Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, according to an Insider report early Tuesday.
During last week’s Barclays Global Healthcare Conference, Pfizer CFO Frank D’Amelio and Senior VP of Investor Relations Chuck Triano told company investors that there could be a “significant opportunity” to increase vaccine prices if the COVID-19 pandemic turns endemic, meaning that the virus is always with the world — not unlike influenza.
D’Amelio and Triano added that people may need a third vaccine to deal with emerging coronavirus variants, or may also require a third dose as a booster.
D’Amelio pointed out that when “normal market conditions” resume, there could be a chance for the company to capitalize on the vaccines from a “demand” and “pricing perspective.”
“We believe it’s becoming increasingly likely that an annual revaccination is going to take place,” he added.
yep here it comes 200+ a shot every year got to get it or you will die
Perfect example of why our health-care should NOT be allowed to be a for-profit venture!
Government is paying why not.
Yeah government is only fronting this part not yearly updates
Government paying means that taxpayers are paying – for everyone!
It would be OK for you – if you’re NOT a taxpayer!
Uhhhhh where does the government get their money?
Hmmmm…
No 11:15, the government is getting paid. The working folks carrying private insurance are gonna be the one’s paying. It always works that way. I wish I were wrong about it.
Well then they should lose their protection when the vaccine hurts or kills someone
Hmmmm Should I invest in Pfizer-BioNTech?
Hey, why should they be the only one to profit with Jackass Joe in office?
safegenericpharmacy dot com will get you the 3 year supply of HQL, Azithromycin and local zinc will get you through if you want this prevention. It takes about 6 weeks to get it from India, but it’s worth having on hand. I’m glad I have it in my medicine cabinet.
