We needed companies like Pfizer to move the machine forward at a quick pace. They had the resources, expertise, manufacturing ability and lobby power to do so. There is a reason that a lot of Covid vaccines from small universities and companies are still far from being ready to roll out their versions.

Pfizer has its issues for sure but without them (and Moderna, J&J etc). It would have been a lot worse.
