In one recent deal, the federal government <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pfizer.com\/news\/press-release\/press-release-detail\/pfizer-and-biontech-announce-new-agreement-us-government\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bought<\/a> 105 million doses for $3.2 billion, implying a cost of slightly more than $30 per dose.<\/p>\n<p>Pfizer said that the market for COVID vaccines will be as large as the market for flu shots for adults, although more time will be necessary for business to grow in the pediatric market. Pfizer CEO Albert Boula <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/pfizer-ceo-covid-19-could-be-controlled-by-annual-vaccines-pills-to-treat\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">said<\/a> that he hopes COVID will be \u201ccontrolled\u201d by annual vaccinations and pills for individuals who contract the virus. \u201cWe will have perfectly normal lives, with just injection maybe once a year. And the pill in case we are sick will make it more flu like rather than life-threatening disease,\u201d Boula remarked during a recent interview, adding that \u201ctwo doses of the vaccine offers very limited protection, if any.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, Pfizer President of International Developed Markets Janine Small <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/scandalous-pfizer-exec-tells-eu-lawmaker-covid-jab-was-never-tested-to-show-it-blocked-transmission\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">confessed<\/a> during testimony before the European Parliament that her company never tested its vaccine to determine whether it stopped transmission. She added that no such tests were conducted because the world was facing a pressing health crisis, and insisted that the vaccine, which Pfizer believes protects people from getting COVID or reduces mortality for those who contract the virus, had to be made quickly available.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe had to really move at the speed of science to really understand what is taking place in the market, and from that point of view we had to do everything at risk,\u201d Small said.<\/p>\n<p>As of last year, British nonprofit Oxfam America found that Pfizer and Moderna had been \u201ccharging governments as much as $41 billion above the estimated cost of production,\u201d since the shots can reportedly be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oxfam.org\/en\/press-releases\/vaccine-monopolies-make-cost-vaccinating-world-against-covid-least-5-times-more\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">produced<\/a> for as little as $1.20 per dose.<\/p>\n<p>COVID vaccine mandates have been the center of considerable political controversy across the world over the past two years as government agencies, universities, and corporations pressed individuals to receive the inoculations. Most recently, a panel at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/governor-bill-lee-says-tennessee-families-wont-be-impacted-by-cdc-vote\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">recommended<\/a> that COVID vaccines be added to the childhood vaccination program in the United States.<\/p>\n<p>Most localities, however, have begun rolling back their mandates. New York City Mayor Eric Adams, a Democrat, reversed the mandate for the private sector and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/mayor-eric-adams-announces-end-to-new-york-citys-private-sector-covid-vaccine-mandate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">noted<\/a> that \u201cthe additional flexibility we are announcing for private employers, students, and parents puts the choice back into each of their hands.\u201d California Governor Gavin Newsom, another Democrat, plans to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/newsom-to-end-covid-emergency-declaration-next-year\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">end<\/a> the state\u2019s COVID emergency declaration at the beginning of next year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pfizer is planning to quadruple the price of its COVID vaccine as the federal government\u2019s program to purchase the doses comes to a close.
