Associated Press, December 17th, U.S. officials said that they were actively negotiating to buy additional Pfizer’s coronavirus vaccine after abandoning the contract for additional vaccine supply this summer because of unclear the effect of the vaccine.
U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Alex Azar and the head of the coronavirus vaccine program, Slaoui, said Wednesday that Pfizer has been unable to promise a fixed delivery date, which Hazard called “the core issue”.
Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla told CNN this week that the company is working with the U.S. government to provide additional vaccines through the federal vaccine program.
