#2Why is Pfizer always mentioned in the news when it is BioNTech and Pfizer is "just" a partner? Just as the Chinese drugmaker Fosun is.

#3> even on the day of their wedding, both made time for lab work.
This would be the definition of pure passion and what it takes to accomplish something like this.

#10The headquarter of their company is only 10 miles from my home, in a university town, full of young people. So blessed that maybe a part of the solution to this crisis comes from "my" region.
