Where is Pfizer stock now?
Just under $40/share. Nothing spectacular,

5 year range is from just under $30 to around $46. It has pretty much been a laggard when compared to the market. According to one of the "talking heads" on TV, there are storage issues with the Pfizer vaccine and not every medical office or facility will have the extreme cold storage capacity this vaccine requires.

Southshore--you are from Canada, so no idea what will happen there. In the US, reports have been that first responders will be first and then those with underlying health conditions and the elderly.

So as I understand , the vaccine needs to be kept at a -104 deg f temperature. That said don’t hold your breath that it will be widely available in early 2021 . There are somewhat conflicting reports with regard to the storage. It has to be stored at an extremely cold temperature as initially reported but that may be for longer term storage, based on another report I heard later. Time will tell.

I heard about the temperature being important which might be an issue for some clinics. There is another method that is in trials that looks like a bandaid and can be sent to you by fedex, ups etc that you apply yourself and it is absorbed into the skin. It is a mRNA a geno altering technology that changes your DNA code and tricks your body into making an immune response to the virus. Very interesting.
