Pfizer Defends Covid Shot, Says Trump Deserves Nobel Prize [View all]

&quot Bloomberg) -- Pfizer Inc. defended the research supporting its Covid vaccine in statement on its website, in a direct response to a social media post by President Donald Trump over the weekend questioning whether drug companies were withholding information about the shots.

The company is “dedicated to continuing to provide clear, factual data to the public,” Pfizer Chief Executive Officer Albert Bourla said in the statement, adding that data on Pfizer’s Covid shot has been disclosed in more than 600 peer-reviewed publications.

Bourla also praised Trump’s handling of Operation Warp Speed, which shepherded the development of Covid vaccines, saying the effort “would typically be worthy of the Nobel Peace Prize, given its significant impact.”
