Daily business briefing
Prior to this week, I had zero opinions about the company Pfizer.
I knew, of course, the basics: that it is a major pharmaceutical manufacturer, and that it had partnered with the German firm BioNTech to make the first approved COVID-19 vaccine available in the United States. I even knew that Pfizer s crowning achievement up to this point had been the patenting of Viagra (knowledge I d acquired from the fact that Spike Lee is making a musical about it).
What I didn t know, though, was that getting my first shot on Tuesday would transform me into a devoted member of Team Pfizer â or as I prefer to call us, the Pfizer Pflock.
