Pfizer will rake in billions from its new Covid vaccine but refuses to lower the price of the vaccine for the poorest countries.

John,

Pfizer is already set to rake in billions from its expensive new Covid vaccine, pricing out low-income countries, leaving them to battle the virus alone.

It doesn’t have to be this way. Pharma giant Astra-Zeneca has already promised to supply lower-income countries with its Covid vaccine at a huge discount.

If Astra-Zeneca can, why can’t Pfizer?

Add your name, and tell Pfizer execs to treat this pandemic like the humanitarian disaster it is -- not their personal piggy bank.

Pfizer: make the vaccine affordable for low-income countries!

AstraZeneca’s commitment to selling its vaccine at cost is great news but no company alone can make enough vaccines for everyone - that’s why we need companies like Pfizer and Moderna to make Covid vaccines affordable for low-income countries.

Experts say that while rich countries will have vaccinated most of their population by next summer, low-income countries will only have protected a tiny fraction of theirs by the end of 2021.

In this global moment of human anguish we need to come together to soothe the suffering of millions -- not exploit the crisis as a business opportunity.

Let’s put the spotlight on Pfizer Chief Exec, Albert Bourla and demand Pfizer cuts its vaccine prices for the poorest countries. If we get 100,000 signatures, we will plaster his face over his hometown’s local newspaper and shame him into action.

Tell Pfizer and Moderna to stop lining its pockets and save lives instead!

Thanks for all that you do,
Vicky, Anna and the team at SumOfUs
