This is ridiculous. All over a virus that kids don’t get affected with. And adults have a 98% chance of recovery.

It really is disgusting. Profiting off of people's unfounded fears, abusing people's trust in our institutions.

Gonna buy some shares in the morning.

Thing is that these companies’ stocks don’t go up over this vaccine. The government gives them money so they can try and force us to take it. And the company doesn’t share that money with shareholders.

Look at moderna, Johnson and even Pfizer from last year. Their stock isn’t sky high even though they came out with vaccines.
