Pfizer 2Q numbers tumble and COVID-19 vaccine, treatment sales dry up
Published Fri, 01 Nov 2024 14:33:04 GMT
Crumbling COVID-19 vaccine and treatment sales chopped Pfizer’s second-quarter earnings, but both the drugmaker and Wall Street expect a rebound in the back half of 2023.Pfizer recorded no U.S. sales of its treatment, Paxlovid, in the recently completed quarter, as the company shifts to selling the pills on the commercial market after contracting with the government.Paxlovid brought in only $143 million total sales during the quarter after recording $8 billion in last year’s quarter.Sales of the vaccine Comirnaty also slid 83% to $1.49 billion in the quarter, as both products fell short of Wall Street expectations.Both Pfizer’s leaders and analysts who follow the company had expected a sales drop in the quarter as inventories already on the market were used up. But they also expect a rebound later this year, as commercial sales take hold, COVID-19 cases climb and fall vaccination pushes begin.Comirnaty, alone, has already generated well over $70 billion in sales for Pfizer since it ...New Jersey Lt.

La medida aplica a nacionales de El Salvador, Honduras, Colombia y Guatemala, según el DHS. “Esto requiere que una petición familiar haya sido presentada y que esa misma haya sido aprobada. Una vez esta petición es aprobada y está en esa calidad de tiempo de espera, (puede encontrarla) en un portal llamado centro nacional de visas”, explicó la abogada de inmigración, Kelley Ortega. A través de ese medio tanto el peticionario como el beneficiario recibirán notificaciones si presentaron la solicitud en línea y usaron un correo electrónico para ello.

DENVER (KDVR) -- The average gas price in Denver has increased 17 cents since July 21, which tallies to approximately $3.91 per gallon, about 20 cents above the national average, according to a GasBuddy survey. While it's significantly less expensive than Denver's prices last July, which were over $4, the prices are almost 25 cents higher than June and almost 20 cents higher than the current national average, GasBuddy said in a press release."Gas prices suddenly soared over the last week due to heat-related refinery outages that impacted some of the largest refineries in the country, at a time when summer gasoline demand peaks and as gasoline inventories slid to their lowest July level since 2015," Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy, said in a press release. All national parks will be free on this day While De Haan believes the rise in prices last week will start to lower, he believes that any new issues, like cuts in supply or hurricanes, could cause the gas...Colorado Day brings two new state license plates

By Stephanie Zito, BankrateTravelers are more eager than ever to hit the road and travel since restrictions brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic have ended. But since the very onset of the pandemic, renting a car has come with its own particularly frustrating baggage.As travel dropped in 2020, rental car companies were undoubtedly hit hard. Companies like Hertz were forced to file for bankruptcy (having since bounced back) and others had to sell off thousands of cars from their fleets. Unfortunately for travelers, this has often meant higher car rental prices and lower availability.Usually, I almost never recommend using rewards for rental car bookings since you can almost always find a rental car deal through AutoSlash, Hotwire, Kayak or Priceline if you don’t care what company you’re renting from. When these kinds of deals don’t exist, however, here’s what you need to know about booking a car rental with miles or points.Using miles or points to book a carAirline miles and pointsNea...Taylor is priceless, but being a Swiftie isn’t

By Alana Benson | NerdWalletI don’t have Taylor Swift tickets. I didn’t survive Ticketmaster’s Great War, I haven’t been blessed with a magical code, and Mama Swift likely won’t pluck me from obscurity to watch from the VIP section.None of this has stopped me from buying friendship bracelet-making supplies, multiple concert outfit options and a clear stadium-approved bag — and I’m not alone.Since Taylor Swift embarked on her record-shattering Eras Tour, her fans have brought shocking economic activity to each city she visits. Resale ticket prices alone are in the thousands, but participating in the Swiftdom extends far beyond a seat at the show.Who’s Taylor Swift anyway?Why are people so willing to spend enormous amounts of money on a concert? Well, this isn’t just any concert.The Eras Tour is a rewind through not just Taylor’s most formative years, but mine as well.

She made history in 2010, becoming the first Black woman to lead the state Assembly.In contrast to her predecessor, who rarely appeared alongside Gov.
