Hes the smartest person i know about setting the tables of where we are. Ive called him a national treasure, but hes now a global treasure. Hes donated 400 million to covid research. Advancecalled this in in 2015, when he warned about a possible pandemic of this sort. I should also note hes trying to get into the journalism business, hes starting a podcast, which we can go out and get, as well. I should also introduce albert bourla. Albert may no longer need an introduction, either. He is the ceo of pfizer. He has done something quite remarkable with this Covid Vaccine and the trial results we have seen have been astonishing. We will talk to him about what that means and where it is all headed.
