Pfizer expects to produce Covid vaccine for years to come
Demand for Pfizer's Covid vaccine could bolster its revenues for years, the US drugs giant has said.In the first three months of 2021, the vaccine generated revenues of $3.5bn as governments scrambled to try to contain the pandemic.
The forecast is based on already-signed contracts for 1.6 billion vaccine doses to be delivered this year. "Based on what we've seen, we believe that a durable demand for our Covid-19 vaccine - similar to that of the flu vaccines - is a likely outcome," said chief executive Albert Bourla.Expenses and profit from the vaccine are split 50-50 between Pfizer and its German partner BioNTech.
