No.

 

Companies often undertake development only because they have a signed contract, same as an LC.  It's common. In addition, the govt has guaranteed to assist with manufacturing and logistics support. 

 

If the gov had said nothing and guaranteed nothing, then you would be correct. As it stands, you are incorrect.

You indicated Pfizer received government funding and you were proven wrong. Get over it.

Breaking news:  The U.S. FDA  grants Eli Lilly emergency authorization to use its novel monoclonal antibody drug bamlanivimab to fight COVID-19.

 

U.S. allows emergency use of first COVID-19 antibody drug

 

Lilly announces agreement with U.S. government to supply 300,000 vials of bamlanivimab (LY-CoV555)  to fight COVID-19

 

Lilly has leveraged our deep scientific capability to fight this pandemic and we are proud of our efforts to develop potential medicines to combat COVID-19. Supply agreements with governments – such as this one with the U.S. government to meet Operation Warp Speed goals.

You keep proving yourself wrong. Pfizer did not receive funding nor was it part of warp speed.

Just to add to your information that FDA has issued EUAs to 50 serology tests which also detect antibodies including from Singapore. Anyway it is good to see efforts to develop potential medicine for covid-19. No one should take credit for the good of mankind.

So you are incorrect. Its still n the r and d stage and they have had no assistance from the govt. they are not part of warp speed.

 

when its all approved then the govt will assist. 

Assist actually meaning place an order to buy.

My links are from "Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology News" and the HHS.gov website. And you call it mis-information !  She is talking about R&D dollars only. Not the $2 billion contract and assistance for manufacturing and distribution.

 

Horse meets trough, won't drink.

I assume that contract yields no gains for Pfizer until and if they develop a vaccine and need to manufacture and distribute it. 

If true then Trump benefitted immediately with  PR move and Pfizer us still fronting the money and doing the work. Wouldn't that qualify as fake news? 

 

It's kinda like pretending to be friends with the cool guys in high school so the girls will like you. It didn't work well in high school either.

RALLIES AND RECOUNTS

 

and the ranting and railing at anyone within earshot continues with the absurd claim that Pfizer delayed the announcement of the vaccine until yesterday .. had it been released last week he's have won he squealed ..

he's like a blind man shooting at the world now ..

J B's team has got its work cut out getting on top of this but at least he takes it seriously which has gotta be a head start ..

Trump should be charged with attempted murder if any gets the virus while attending one of these stupid campaigns.   Lock him up and throw the keys away.

Hear! Hear! This guy will do ANYTHING to keep the presidency for himself. He is indeed a criminal for encouraging people to gather in big numbers with the risk of catching the virus. But he couldn't care less as he is only interested in himself.

They should fly him to the middle of the Sahara, tell him it's a giant sand trap and let him happily hack his way out of it till the end of January.  (He'll finally get to the edge and record one stroke on his score card).
