Israel strikes deal with Pfizer; set to inoculate whole adult population by spring in exchange for patient data
by kantos

    Under the deal, Israel will receive a up to 500,000 doses of Pfizer vaccine over the next 10 weeks with more than 10 million doses in total by the middle of March – enough to vaccinate all of its 9.3 million citizens over the age of 16, the report said.

    In return, Israel will collect data for Pfizer including the results of the vaccinations, side effects, efficacy, and the amount of time it takes to develop antibodies to fight the virus. The data will be sorted by patient data including age, gender, preexisting conditions and other data points, but will be provided anonymously to protect patient privacy.
