U.S. Signs Contract with Pfizer for 100 Million COVID-19 Vaccine Doses

The cost for the undeveloped vaccines is $2 billion

Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar announced Wednesday that the U.S. has signed a contract with Pfizer for delivery in December of the first 100 million doses of a COVID-19 vaccine the pharmaceutical company is working to develop.

The U.S. could buy another 500 million doses under the agreement, Azar said.

“Now those would, of course, have to be safe and effective” and be approved by the Food and Drug Administration, Azar said during an appearance on Fox News. To learn more about the arrangement, please select this link to read Pfizer's official press release.
