Pfizer's CEO hasn't gotten his Covid vaccine yet, saying he doesn't want to cut in line

"This is a vaccine that was developed without cutting corners from a company with 171 years of credentials," Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla said.

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.

    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.
