The newest millionaires are from big pharma—mainly Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson, and AstraZeneca, who are selling profitable COVID-19 treatments worldwide. CEO salaries for the top 20 pharma companies are raking in multi-million compensation packages along with lucrative stock options.
Those millionaires are the result of the bottomless U.S. Treasury that can cough up taxpayers’ investment money in the billions. The gargantuan U.S.-Pfizer multi-billion-dollar deal was signed at warp speed at the behest of President Donald Trump, who, now out of office, is probably experiencing buyer’s remorse.
From the outset, taxpayers were never inoculated with normal protections as Pfizer got a sweetheart deal. For example, the deal excludes the normal intellectual property rights, which give the government leverage when the company engages in price gouging later.
While developing the vaccine in such a short time was hailed as “miraculous,” the government opted to give away the store in favor of short-term political goals. Critics point out that the Pfizer contract excludes the normal so-called Bayh-Dole rights, which allow the government to take over rights to the vaccine if a manufacturer cannot or will not make its product on reasonable terms.
Also, the Pfizer contract has no intellectual property rights most other government contractors must follow. Those include rights to studies and manufacturing techniques. Pfizer owns all its own research and development data.
So, with millions of Americans vaccinated, Pfizer is making an estimated $1,000 profit every second, even while the world’s poorest countries are essentially unvaccinated. One article in The Washington Post discloses secret contracts negotiated between Pfizer and other world governments. Those contracts allow “for little public scrutiny of Pfizer’s burgeoning power.”
Also, a consumer rights group was able to access some of those contracts, where the pharmaceutical giant Pfizer has maintained a tight level of secrecy. The report characterizes the contracts as consistently placing Pfizer’s interests “before public imperatives.”
Most alarming, a common theme in the contracts includes secrecy as well as prohibiting dose donation. Any disputes must be settled in secrecy in arbitration courts. Pfizer can change the terms around key issues like delivery dates, and use public assets as collateral.
Most vulnerable contracting countries were Brazil, Chile, Columbia and the Dominican Republic. The Pfizer contract requires those countries to give up their rights to be immune against Pfizer seizing those countries’ assets. One observer remarked that it was like asking the United States to put up the Grand Canyon as collateral.
Savvy business practices notwithstanding, Pfizer flooded the FDA with over 329,000 pages of data they provided to the FDA to get its license validated. A group of 30 scientists, academics and professors want the FDA to produce that information. The FDA asked the judge for a deadline date of 2076 for full disclosure.
Meanwhile, the U.S. Government is doubling down with a $5.29 billion payment for 10 million treatments of another experimental drug. The drug, branded as Paxlovid, will cost about $530 per treatment. Pfizer promises that the drug can cut in half the risk of dying or being hospitalized with Covid.
Again, like the Covid-19 vaccination, Pfizer wants an emergency authorization for FDA approval of the drug. President Biden said he has “taken immediate steps to secure enough supply (of Paxlovid) for the American people.”
As the Pill-Pusher-in-Chief hypes a widely untested drug, many are confused by the conflicting and mixed messages in coping with this pandemic. Aside from offering baffling advice and mandates on wearing face coverings, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on one hand says “COVID-19 vaccines are safe and effective.”
On the other hand, CDC monitors COVID vaccine “Adverse Event Reports.” Through November 12, 2021, the number of reported deaths connected with COVID-19 is an astonishing 8,664, begging the question, how is that “safe and effective”?
Finally, this article was inspired in part by an InfoWars special report. Conservative talk show host Alex Jones makes a strong case that Pfizer has dictated terms to the U.S. Government as well as the rest of the world.
Whether that unprecedented power is part of what Jones describes as a deadly conspiracy depends on one’s point of view. What is undeniable is that citizens in Australia and some European countries are being arrested for defying quarantine and vaccination mandates.
This is unreal that our government is so ignorant about everything it does. They have mass spending bills breaking our country and want to take peoples rights away and make them take a purely experimental drug that was not tested correctly. Clearly this vaccine is not safe for everyone. It not right to make people take it.
The USA is clearly not the USA it was that our military hero’s fought and died for. Reagan said, loss of freedom is only a generation away. He’s right. Way to many young have way to much faith in a government that is all about the politicians, not the people. Where can we go now to be free?
Put OUR ELECTED President back in the Oval ;
The Don can handle this in the power & authority of JESUS’NAME.
Agree whole heartedly may our Father God will here our prayers and his will be done. Pray he decides to take cae of this mess!!!!!
Hear not “here”,
Hi Helen! It is very often we see spelling and grammatical mistakes in the posts we read, but this is not the forum for you to teach other people how to write correctly. It is a forum to read their views!
They are not ignorant. They are evil, vile people. Biden plays a senile fool but he is the same guy who created the 2008 financial disaster that killed me and millions of others economically. His folksy speech is a cover, he is as bad as any James Bond villain.
Undo the failed Pres. Election ! We need a tough, no-holds- barred Pres. – That man is Pres Trump ! This is the only way we will ever gain control of our Gov’t again,,,,,,, ‘n only those Americans that love our Freedom will ever gain power over our Gov’t again. The Dem. Party is out of control,,,,,,Now is the Time ,, do not wait,,,,
The. Democratic party needs to be removed from office and charged with high Treason and murder and anyone pushing this vaccine needs to be charged with murder.studies From around the world show vaccinated people are dieing at an alarming rate while non vaccinated people are doing well
Yes.
This testing to get on a plane is another means of pure control. I feel perfectly healthy. But my test that was negative up to today came back positive. I have no symptoms at all along with the people traveling with me – two of the four of us have been negative. I have had three shots one being the booster just a month ago. Now tell me how and why these shots that they are shoving down our throats work? Nothing but a government conspiracy!!!
The CDC originally stated that the data concerning release of the Covid info would not be available for 75 years!!! Why??? What and why are they keeping it so secret! The US is going to be the new communist Canada, if action is not taken by our lawmakers! Unreal how quick Canada be came a totalitarian sate!
They are poison being peddled as vaccines, I did not read 1 thing mentioning how the major Pharmaceutical company investors cannot be held accountable for people dying or left incapacitated by the adverse side effects associated with those toxins.
All vaccine data, reports and development information, needs to be released to the public
You have no rights ! The right of. every American has been SOLD to the Med. Co. owners ! ‘n they love Biden ‘n Soros, ‘n Hilary, ‘n China ‘n _——-.. And there is absolutely nothing YOU can do about it ,,,, They can stop ‘u from going into a grocery store- to a dr. Of ‘ur choice – from living a free life- They control life or death of ‘u, your boss your children – your life,,,,,,
Really, pharmaceutical company investors can be sued for people being killed and damaged by the vaccines. So you can’t sue the company but you can sue investors, but, how do you do that as some companies have millions of investors.
I am not and will not take the graphene oxide death shot.
It seems my chance of dying from covid IF I catch it and dying from the death shot IF I choose to take it are about the same. I’ll take my chance with an ever weakening virus.
Your life is not in ‘ur control any motre! Even the time for talk of revolution (stupid) is over,,, BLM will be gone- – our branches of Service ‘r gone -our breathing rights ‘r gone- -“””””
Pray for God’s guidance,,,, Biden is out of control… these people really believe they control your “life” or “death” — God’s punishment is coming but will not be in time to save America…
And the media lies again to try and take the blame off of biden. You guys always try to blame trump but the usa was 150 times better and safer under trump. Biden is ignorant as hell , has dementia and ruined the usa within 2wks of being president and its gonna keep getting worse till u pull these people out of office.
I have a condition known as Cryoglobulinemia vasculitis, & for almost one year have been trying to get it treated with a simple program involving Rituximab. However, here in northern Kolorado, the UC Health system’s doctors won’t do anything for it unless I agree to the Kung Flu jab. Gee, I wonder who is behind this kind of moronic, medical tyranny? SCREW ‘EM!!
Pfizer needs the highest level of secrecy so that humanity does not know how many millions of people have died after injecting them with this poison.
You have no rights ! The right of. every American has been SOLD to the Med. Co. owners ! ‘n they love Biden ‘n Soros, ‘n Hilary, ‘n China ‘n _——-.. This Elite. Group has a goal- a ‘rule’ book,, they claim their plan won’t work without getting the population down to 775,000 people.,,,,,,then their ‘rob/ots can handle the rest,,, our Country WiILL be known as N. American CONTINENT ‘til China ‘n. Hilary can decide who gets to be boss – their play area where the Pedos can bring their ‘pets,,,
If you have not read “Atlas Shrugged” by Ayn Rand you should. She explains, through a story, how a country is turned socialistic/communistic but she also explains how to stop that from happening. It is a must read if you want to change what is happening in the USA.
Now we are finding out what kind of president we have. One without any thought of making America great again but one who is filling our nation with un-welcome guest which will result in our total destructing. Some how and some way in the very near future we can look forward to patriots like Trump and DeSantis to make an entrance and start kicking ass and counting heads as we once again start making America Great Again. Our once great nation is in dire need of repair and we need American patriots like Trump ,DeSantis and others to Make America Great Again by stopping these devils in their tracks.
Perhaps it is high time that ordinary patriotic citizens start rising up and clearing the path for patriots like Trump and DeSantis to make their entrance. We the People have sat with our thumbs up our butts long enough.
The real miracle was that a handful of politically-connected companies were given massive government subsidies to develop a product that did not work and that had significant adverse effects. These conglomerates were then completely indemnified from the consequences while the police power of the state was used (and is being used) in an attempt to compel all people to use that product and to use it repeatedly and indefinitely. This is an achievement of compulsion and corruption perhaps unparalleled in human history.
Oh, their product worked perfectly just as intended.
AMERICA WAKE UP, YOU ARE BEING KILLED BY YOUR OWN GREEDY GOVERNMENT AND THE CRIMINAL BIG PHARMA COMPANIES, ALL FOR “CONTROL”. IT’S CALLED LIBERAL SOCIALIST COMMUNISM, DICTATORSHIP.
BE A GOOD SLAVE AND WE MIGHT LET YOU LIVE! IS THIS HOW YOU WANT TO LIVE???????????
Pfizer and the rest of the so-called elites can shove their money and inflated egos where the sun don’t shine. I will not comply with anything they mandate or enact into law. I have only one sovereign and that Christ Jesus, and I have the original Constitution as my Supreme Law of the Land. We the People, hard working men and women founded this nation and paid for it with our blood, sweat, tears, and in many cases, with our lives. It was not founded by big corporations, bankers or money grubbing greedy, unethical and immoral and dishonorable politicians.
A private company can NOT dictate anything to the American people. A B/S treaty does NOT trump the U.S. Constitution, Bill of rights, Nuremberg Code or international law. These clowns who have hallucinated a “work around” need to pull their cowardly heads out of their asses & from under their skirts before the wrath of hell falls upon them.
And big Pharma has shut down Dr. Malone who has stated that they are misusing his invention. Is it time for the revolution against the current administration.
Beijing Joe turned this Administration over to the TOILET SNAKE aka O’butthead aka Barack Hussein Obama aka Barry Park after Beijing Joe was Sworn into Office. That’s Who is running the Country. Beijing Joe is just a PUPPET
and EVERYBODY knows It.
This is UNREAL but not surprising given the current administration. What about the Moderna vaccine, is this manufacturer a “crook” also? We need a responsible President and Congress in office to look out for America, not what we currently have!
Making a $1000 a second, having full control of its drug, Pfizer is definitely short changing its shareholders. Every
other major drug company raises their dividend 5-12 cents a share,while buying back BILLIONS of their shares;
Pfizer continues to increase their yearly dividend by ONE-TWO CENTS. What gives
