This is how all tech companies work...its always a collaborative venture to spread risks, pull in research and experience form a wide variety of different companies and to bring the very many capabilities across alot of different companies that are required to bring any product to market wether its a smart phone, electric car or vaccine.
It is highly likely that Pfizer has a long history with working with this company over many years and many other companies. It is highly likely that Pfizer legally own the research and IP too.
Because pfizer had managed to make a lovely first world vaccine that due to temp storage needs, cost and complexity of dosing it will only be for white first world countries that can pay the above cost price for it.
can you tell I think they are a bunch of money grabbing c****
Az and others are making theirs at cost.
~$5 dollars a shotfor az vs $20 for the money grubbers.
Which means Pfiezer will have enough money to take a gamble and be the first ones to develop a vaccine for the next mutant strain of covid-19 or goat flu.
How long do you think AZ will be able to keep up plowing R&D money into new vaccines that may or may not work for all the Covid variants over the next decade at cost?
You guys seem to be operating under the presumption that all will be fine and we'll get back to normal when the vaccines hit the market in significant quantities, we won't - there will have to be seasonal vaccine development like we have with the flu.

I though it was pretty widely accepted that regular vaccination was the probable outcome. Not sure I’ve really seen much in the way of “just one jab and all back to normal”
