Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla<\/p><\/div>\n
One of the most significant cultural transformations of the last two years has been the newfound glorification of the pharmaceutical industry.<\/p>\n
An industry plagued by decades of fraud, corruption, and criminality managed to quickly rebrand itself as the savior of humanity during the covid-19 crisis.<\/p>\n
But nothing inherently changed. Big Pharma still values shareholders\u2019 profits more than people\u2019s lives.<\/p>\n
The regulatory agencies still operate as revolving doors to the pharmaceutical giants they are said to regulate.<\/p>\n
Big Pharma still dominates lobbying efforts in Washington DC, and\u00a0spends billions each year<\/a>\u00a0advertising pharmaceutical products.<\/p>\n Despite the notorious corrupt nature of the pharmaceutical industry, Pfizer\u2019s CEO Albert Bourla claimed during a November 2021 interview that a small group of \u201cmedical professionals\u201d who are intentionally circulating \u201cmisinformation\u201d critical of the Pfizer vaccine narrative are \u201ccriminals.\u201d<\/p>\n Bourla seemed to have forgotten about the history of his own company.<\/p>\n
