Pharmaceutical giant Pfizer slashed its profit and revenue estimates for a full year as it said that demand for COVID-19 vaccines and other products has dropped.

The firm now expects 2023 sales of $58 billion to $61 billion, down from previous forecasts of $67 billion to $70 billion, according to its guidance report that was released on Friday, Oct. 13. The revenue outlook was slashed, it said, "solely due to its COVID products" such as its vaccine and antiviral drug.

It anticipates that sales of its COVID-19 vaccine will be about $2 billion lower than its previously expected forecast due to lower-than-expected rates of people taking the mRNA shot. The firm's latest COVID-19 booster was made available by U.S. federal regulators last month, but the rollout has been relatively slow—with only about 2 percent of Americans taking any of the vaccines, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) data.

Pfizer vaccines are pure Shit, DKG

Did you get the Pfizer vaccine?

I guess thats why you and Shen are pissed off at them eh?

I never got Pfizer and never got Covid


They did that to you guys intentionally to make you dependent on them


Almost everyone i know who got the Pfizer jab came down with covid eh


Big reason no one should be allowed to profit from vaccines during a pandemic

FDA in the US has become a sad joke because they endorsed Pfizer and nobody trust what they say anymore

I never got any useless vaccine. I caught COVID and got natural immunity.

Pfizer is waiting for the effects of the first round of Covid shots to become widespread.

There will be a high demand for a number of medications over the next while.

Senile Joe, there is no way that you can know that you never got Covid.

How did you come to that conclusion?

Even if these people live long lives in those countries, some of them the pension is really miniscule & the old folk work in menial jobs


Elderly prostitutes in Korea, DKG:


So for them it's long, bleak lives of poverty and minimal existence, DKG.

I guess they're healthy tho.

I suppose if a person's gonna be old n poor, it may as well be in places where the weather is nice and they can grow their own food year round, eh?

Oerdin

I like that idea.  Make those old people work and earn their bread.

You are really counting on CPP, eh Senile Joe?

CPP and OAS is a drop in the bucket for most people.

You should have planned better.

Who the hell wants to live that long?

Joe misunderstands those videos. South Korea was one of the last developed countries to establish a national pension system of mandatory contributions fron employees and employers. You will not see old folks forced to sell carboard ton recyclers in the near future. Folks under fifty will have a security blanket.

Steven Davidoff Solomon is a corporate law professor at the University of California, Berkeley, School of Law. While he has no doubt seen his school enroll and anoint generations of radical leftists over the past decade, he's now ready to warn law firms about at least one variety of extremism they can expect from Berkeley graduates.

In a Sunday opinion piece for the Wall Street Journal, Solomon pleaded with prospective employers: "Don't hire some of my students."

Solomon, co-founder of the Antisemitism Education Initiative and an adviser to the Jewish law students' association, noted that anti-Semitism is "nothing new on university campuses, including here on Berkeley."

He cited as one recent example a bylaw adopted last year by several student groups and several more since — including the Queer Caucus, the Berkeley Law Muslim Student Association, the Womxn of Color Collective, and the Women of Berkeley Law — that bars supporters of Israel from speaking, effectively creating "'Jew-free' zones."
