Sen. Sanders calls out Moderna for quadrupling the price of publicly-funded COVID vaccine

Senator Bernie Sanders: ‘In terms of Moderna, here's the story. This vaccine was discovered in partnership with the NIH, with a government agency supported by the taxpayers in this country. In addition, the government put 1.9 billion dollars into research and development for Moderna and then guaranteed Moderna billions of dollars in sales. And then as a thank you to the taxpayers in this country, what Moderna says is after we deplete the government supply of free vaccines, they're gonna quadruple the price of that vaccine.’
