Very believable reason for him not taking his own "medicine". /s Then again, no way to prove he took the same vaccine as he is pushing.
Bourgeois when talking about taking the vaccine they rushed to market: "I need to wait my turn, I couldn't possibly cut in line for this."
Bourgeois when talking about distribution of the fruits of the proletariat's labor value: "whoa whoa whoa step back peasants, maybe when I'm done gorging you can pick a corn kernel out of my shit as compensation
Then again, no way to prove he took the same vaccine as he is pushing.
No way to prove he isn't lying about not cutting in line, either. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
He's a CEO, you dont get to that position unless you are a psychopath, he 100% doesn't give a shit about "cutting in line" for poor people, or any of that other pr bullshit. He knows how rushed this process was, that corners were cut. He will sit back and let millions of people be guinea pigs of his latest "product" and wait for the real results.
Exactly. If he thinks it's good, he's taken it, and is lying about not having taken it. If he's doubtful and hasn't taken it, then he lying about why he hasn't taken it.
Alright lib take but who cares what this CEO does. He wasn't one of the scientists who worked on the vaccine. I would still wait on peer review but the science is good. mRNA is really safe and the nanolipid side effects go away pretty quickly.
Quick update, turns out the pfizer vaccine has been peer reviewed and published: https://www.nejm.org/doi/10.1056/NEJMoa2034577
Didn't he also sell a large chunk of his shares in the company right after the vaccine was announced?
Just saying it's a nice coincidence for him that his stocks just happened to automatically sell themselves right after the vaccine was announced
Yes, there's a "scheduled in advance" loophole for insider trading. What a lucky individual. I sure couldn't have planned a transaction several months in advance. More likely, he had a series of SEC-filed plans for the transaction and then declined to go through with all but one.
The vaccine announcement caused the stock price to increase which hit a predetermined price target, automatically selling off a portion of his shares. Not really a coincidence
I'd say that's the exact definition of a coincidence (I have my doubts that he didn't plan it way in advance)
Yep, which is the only real guarantee of this vaccine. Pfizer is set to make billions of dollars. We have no clue what the long term side effects will be or if the damn thing will even work.
It's a rushed vaccine that had little testing and is being touted as a miracle drug. The mainstream media was all set to deny a miracle drug had Trump won but since Biden is entering office, suddenly it's all safe and OK.
To seem like a benevolent nice CEO while also getting the vaccine early? I don’t really know, I was just throwing it out there.
It seems extremely tone deaf in political atmosphere where "will you take a Covid vaccine?" was a question at the VP debate. It's not just something that online weirdos argue about; it's made it into mainstream politics. CEOs can be tone deaf on lots of stuff, but it seems like a real stretch here.
As for why he wouldn't lie and say he took it: if he lies about taking it and gets sick or even dies, boom, good luck selling the vaccine as effective.
That's the easiest thing in the world to spin, though. It's one dose, and he can say "look, here's how much I believe it's safe and effective -- I put it in my own body."
But if he lies about taking it and gets sick, that's a problem.
Alright folks, time to go literally anywhere else other than Canada and the U.S for the Chinese Vaccine.
I mean, if you knew the vaccine has Epstein's cum in it would you take it?
I mean whatever I believe him, this is just magnanimous industrialist shit. He knows he’s in no danger in whatever giant fucking house he’s in and it makes him and the company look good, which they desperately need if they’re going to push against pharma cost reform.
Probably doesn't need one anyway. COVID doesn't kill lizard people.
spoiler: he's already taken the Sinovac vaccine because it's proven technology and more effective
heh, I couldn't POSSIBLY cut in line in front of all those elderly, Black, and Lateenx people who DEFINITELY deserve PRIORITY vaccination to all other ethnic groups.
Jesus fuck I think we’d actually have a race war.
race war instigated by POC will never happen because white people control all avenues of media. If the white gov didn't constantly murder truthtellers, POC would have seceded and balkanized the US by now.
The only race war that might happen is wignats holocausting POC. Just being honest.
The media has been manufacturing consent in almost every society for almost all of history
First off, a disproportionate of POC are still anti-gun. Race war needs guns. Otherwise it's called a holocaust.
Yeah food shortages would cause violence. But all POC won't be starving at the same time. Most POC would continue to buy into the system, living under the illusion that "it won't happen to them".
Also America has a shitton of land and food, and even the POC who are literally being evicted will often be able to find over 1000 calories a day.
Lastly, even with guns, Black Americans are nowhere near prepared to pull off a revolution or secession, other POC even less so. There are close to zero organized Black militant groups, if any exist they are full of FBI rats already, and that's not even mentioning that the vast majority of Blacks want nothing to do with that stuff (even less so than whites).
There are also zero vast Black areas. POC are mostly holed up in crowded cities. The rural Black belt has a lot of whites surrounding them.
Not trying to be a downer, I wish you were right. It just won't and can't happen, at least not within the next 5 years.
I mean he's not really old and looks healthy (physically at least) it's not really unimaginable that he genuinely isn't in a hurry to take it.
