"Announced they have made more profit in the first quarter this year than they did the whole of last year around 20 billion and over 50% of that has come from covid vaccines. Makes you wonder doesn't it " Doesn't make me wonder at all. If they found a cure for cancer their profits would be astronomical, everyone would say how amazing it is and its wonderful they're saving so many lives and people wouldn't give a shit how much profit they made. But because its Covid related profit..........horrors. Winston | |||

"Announced they have made more profit in the first quarter this year than they did the whole of last year around 20 billion and over 50% of that has come from covid vaccines. Makes you wonder doesn't it " Not really, its what happens when a massive global company uses all it's available resources to help save humanity. If you had been a Pfizer employee would you have sacrificed your salary to work on a COVID vaccine ? Sould shareholders who invested money to support the company and enabled them to make the vaccine not be rewarded ? If you have a pension scheme you may well benefit. To some people 20 billion seems like a lot of money and they aren't capable of comprehending finances on a global scale. So what's your point ? Putin and Biden and even BJ got together to scam you ? | |||

Don't see many queueing for the 5th shot just now. That Covid thing seems to be kinda done with... it's that sorta Ukrainian thing now and the electricity and North Sea Gas thing. Oh yeah and runaway inflation on food. Everyone seems to be making such great profits just now. Soon we'll all be rich what with trickledown economics and all that. | |||

"Companies make money shock..sod.off" I'm not so sure it's companies making money. After all they need to make money to employ people. It's the vast amounts of profit that are being made, and the lack of trickle down to train and provide better for their employees. Zero hours contracts, contingent workers, 3rd World production, damage to the environment. So profits are good. Profits with a lack of conscience are not very good. In this particular case, the entire population of the planet being told they must have not just one or two but three and more of their product is a captive market and so just feels a little...bleargh. Good for those with shares in the company though. | |||

"Announced they have made more profit in the first quarter this year than they did the whole of last year around 20 billion and over 50% of that has come from covid vaccines. Makes you wonder doesn't it " You may have responded but this thread got bogged down in the usual muck throwing... What is it that it makes you wonder OP? What are you uncomfortable with in this context? I try (often fail) to take a balanced view on most things. So on the one hand the creation of covid vaccines that reduced the impact of covid on the world by a commercial company seems like a good thing. On the other, the vast profits (and bully boy tactics employed by Pfizer, particularly with African countries*) and push for boosters (with understandable scepticism over reduced efficacy) does make some of their actions morally questionable. Pfizer are not a good company. They have some very bad historic actions against them. But did their vaccine help save the world from a worse pandemic result? *Many countries in Africa were forced (can’t use the word on here but first word is “black” and second is “mailed”) to change their laws and legislation over corporate liability for medical/medicines compensation to indemnify Pfizer against lawsuits from adverse reactions. If these countries did not change their laws they were told they would not get the vaccine. | |||

Additionally, I'm allowed to think they're foolish. Would I prefer to divorce my life from the disgusting, unethical, immoral practices of many companies? Sure.

"Announced they have made more profit in the first quarter this year than they did the whole of last year around 20 billion and over 50% of that has come from covid vaccines. Makes you wonder doesn't it " Ah... so you're saying that if it wasn't for the covid vaccine, they'd have only made $10 billion? | |||

"Why should they take finance? Plus they are British and Pfizer is American. Memory getting hazy but pretty sure Pfizer refused Govt finance for R&D (unlike for example, AZ) so that they could dictate price and other factors." I said Govt not British Govt. All around the world govts were providing R&D finance to speed up the process etc. Pfizer opted to finance everything themselves in order to be able to dictate their own terms including unit price etc. Of course they didn’t have to take Govt support, and they chose not to. Not sure what point you are making? | |||

I looked at some of the food parcels following Rashford speaking up, and it wouldn't stun me if that was a non standard procurement too. A Tory donor owns the new HMRC building in Newcastle and has got a pretty sweet deal. So... Food and taxes are evil too? Or is it just government corruption? | |||

"Got it, all fine. I did a quick search and took the numbers from a quick scan of reliable sites as read. Like most, I'm no longer as invested in it. Regardless, the known risks of Covid infection, particularly without vaccination, clearly outweigh the risks of vaccination.

I think some people would actually prefer this. Which is bizarre.
I used to work in Life Sciences, one of my last projects was building a research facility.
£175 million and 3+ years to build it. God knows how many years to develop a successful product, God knows how long to get it fully certified and in the marketplace, God knows how much spent on salaries, service charges, marketing and God knows what else, before they make a bean.
Yes, they make a tidy old profit when the make a successful product.
But my god it costs a lot to get to that place. Not forgetting not all research ends in success and not all products make huge profit.

"Announced they have made more profit in the first quarter this year than they did the whole of last year around 20 billion and over 50% of that has come from covid vaccines. Makes you wonder doesn't it Not really, its what happens when a massive global company uses all it's available resources to help save humanity. If you had been a Pfizer employee would you have sacrificed your salary to work on a COVID vaccine ? Sould shareholders who invested money to support the company and enabled them to make the vaccine not be rewarded ? If you have a pension scheme you may well benefit. To some people 20 billion seems like a lot of money and they aren't capable of comprehending finances on a global scale. So what's your point ? Putin and Biden and even BJ got together to scam you ?" You say used it’s resources...without our asking they were technically socially funded by being paid through our taxes. I didn’t want one yet my taxes went to it. Then it was privately profited. So we all paid for it, without consent. Yet a few profit from it. | |||

They, meaning pharma companies, have found a cure for cancer? These companies cannot make a profit from this cure? (not too sure why this would be). As the pharma company cannot make a profit the pharma company has made the product illegal? Is that about right? Wasn't aware a private company could make a product illegal, a government body maybe, but a company? Please advise. | |||

There's no categorical evidence to support it is a cure. There's some research that shows some chemicals may be a potential treatment. However, (from memory) in the UK you only have a place on a clinical trial if you agree to stop all other treatments or not had any previously. So if people agree to trial it then it's a massive risk to their lives. Also do you not think that when someone studies a medical degree they're not taught about the different acts? I was taught pharmacy law and ethics, which covered government acts as part of it. Furthermore I witnessed my dad die from cancer and that's all I'll say about that. | |||

" If they found a cure for cancer their profits would be astronomical, everyone would say how amazing it is and its wonderful they're saving so many lives and people wouldn't give a shit how much profit they made. They have the cure for cancer but THEY can't profit off it that's why they have made it illegal! I spent years studying pharmacy at university. There isn't a cure for cancer. Not many people know of this but here in the UK we have the relatively unknown 1939 Cancer Act, which states you can only "cure" Cancer with Chemotherapy, Radiation or Surgery, and anyone who makes claims to have cured cancer in any other way is liable for prosecution re:- Rick Simpson oil + Charlotte's Web¿" Generally scientific research evidence will include their statistical analysis of the results, rather than attempt to make a claim as a cure, such as some snakeoil product touted in advertisements. Consultants will avail themselves of the evidence and aren't likely to tout anything as a cure either, with something like the 5 years survival rates being reasonable guides to outcomes. | |||

Also, I don't think your post shows any empathy to other peoples situations who have lost family members and the vulnerabilities that someone with Cancer could be feeling. https://news.cancerresearchuk.org/2016/02/19/the-1939-cancer-act/ | |||

"There are idiots out there claiming soursop can cure cancer. There are people who are refusing cancer treatment, and opting to eat a fruit hoping that will cure them. Did it cure them? No, the cancer spread instead. It's not a f*cking conspiracy, it's to protect people." Or black salve. It'll eat your tissue and not cure the cancer. | |||

Another one of the "alternative treatments" with zero evidence of treating cancer. Just a way for people to make money conning people and shouldn't be legally allowed. | |||

Just fraudsters making money from human suffering, and sending their disciples after the regulated* part of the industry. * Note I said "regulated", not "perfect" | |||

"Some cancers are inoperable. Some people are frightened and desperate. Some people are shysters and con men and will take advantage of these two details. Scum of the earth..... There's a special place in Hell for them. Winston" This desperation extends beyond cancer fraudsters and into Covid fraudsters. Where there's fear, desperation, and few easy answers, there's conspiracy mongering and fraud. And finger pointing at those who actually try to solve the problem. And denial of evidence, because it makes people deeply uncomfortable. | |||

Yep, I agree there is a cure for cancer, I had RT, Chemo and invasive surgery, so I no longer have cancer..... but I presume this wasn't what you meant? What a foolish and frankly insulting comment to make. | |||

"The point of any business is to make profits It’s all about scale as well there volume of sales would of been huge modest margin on massive sales equals big profit Without previous profits to make it a solid business they wouldn’t of been in a position to research and develop vaccines Capping profits would be counter productive you’d just stop once you reach the cap why work for nothing " "The point of any business is to make profits"... Yep very true. And the obligation of the board is to secure return on share holders funds. Important to bear that in mind when discussing companies who some seem to present as altruistic philanthropists. One might extend that thought process a bit and reflect upon if they make more or less money from a healthy population or from one which has been nurtured into the belief that constant intervention is what is needed. | |||

" The philosophical dilemma, cure or treat. It is this type of question which is crucial to explore for the long term benefits of every single illness that needs treatment, that is manipulated to fuel the doubting mind whilst providing the asset of fear to the puppet masters of conspiracy. | |||

Winston" As is your style, you go straight to extremes and hyperbole. However as you mention pain relief, that's a really good example where the pharma industry famously misrepresented the addictive properties of certain pain relief meds, used illegal practises similar to drug dealers to hook people on their pain relief meds and then continued to feed the addictions. Now, do they do good things? almost certainly. Is there a conflict of interest of return on investment and behaviours and the fact they make more money from people taking more meds... I think that's a good and healthy discussion to have. Its a shame you don't want to discuss that. | |||
