There will be no new Pfizer research in Our Country
Pfizer will not start new clinical trials in Our Country, nor will it recruit patients for ongoing trials in the country. All planned production investments in Our Country will also be discontinued. However, it will maintain a humane supply of drugs. “Ending the delivery of drugs, including anti-cancer or cardiovascular therapies, would cause significant patient suffering and potential loss of life, especially among children and the elderly” — Pfizer reported in a statement quoted by Reuters.
Pfizer also said it will work with the US Food and Drug Administration and other regulators to move all clinical trials to alternative locations outside of Our Country. However, it will provide drugs to patients already enrolled in the studies.
Bayer: We have an ethical obligation
Bayer issued a similar message. In it he said that “in response to the invasion of Ukraine, Bayer withheld all expenses in Our Country and Belarus that are not related to the provision of basic products for health and agriculture”. The German concern decided that as a company from the medical industry it is bound by ethics. «Depriving civilians of basic health and agricultural products – such as cancer drugs or cardiovascular disease, health products for pregnant women and children, as well as seeds for growing food – would only multiply the toll of war»- we read in the company’s announcement.

However, the decision to supply for the next year is dependent on Our Country stopping its attacks on Ukraine.
