The legal battle between the entities extends beyond the UK

 

Pfizer and its Germany partner BioNTech have urged London’s High Court to invalidate competitor Moderna‘s patents over technology instrumental in the Covid-19 vaccines development as the latest phase of a global legal fight that started [Tuesday] (23 April), reported Reuters.

 

In September 2022, US pharma company Pfizer and BioNTech filed a lawsuit against Moderna at London’s High Court, seeking to cancel patents held by Moderna. However, days after the filing of the lawsuit, Moderna hit back, levelling allegations that its patents had been infringed.

 

The dispute centres on messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) technology, which has been instrumental in the fight against the pandemic.

Meanwhile, the legal battle between Pfizer, BioNTech and Moderna extends beyond the UK, with parallel proceedings in Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, and the US, as well as at the European Patent Office.

Love it when the wolves are fighting each other to ensure a bigger piece of the cake.  Such legal battles often result in the issuing of damaging information meant to hurt the other party but actually backfiring on both of them when the dirty laundry is exposed.  Let the spectacle begin!

The corporate sharks, not satisfied with the hundreds of billions of USD in revenue now smell blood in the water and go on the attack to rip and shred one of their own. 

Greed and Corporations are synonymous.

How about their record of being sued. That is quite the list too. Nothing some good old money can’t buy your way out of
