Pence breaks silence to take credit for Pfizer vaccine - and drugs company immediately denies Trump involved

Mike Pence has broken his post-election silence to trumpet the Trump administration’s backing of a new coronavirus vaccine - only for the company to immediately point out that their vaccine had nothing to do with the government. Pfizer announced on Monday morning that their Covid-19 vaccine was 90 per cent effective, in early trials. "HUGE NEWS: Thanks to the public-private partnership forged by President @realDonaldTrump, @pfizer announced its Coronavirus Vaccine trial is EFFECTIVE, preventing infection in 90% of its volunteers," tweeted Mr Pence.
