Pfizer faces multi-billion dollar patent battle over COVID jab tech

Pfizer mRNA lawsuit

The legal fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic is shifting from public health measures to intellectual property, with biotechnology firms Arbutus Biopharma and Genevant Sciences suing Pfizer and BioNTech over the lipid nanoparticle (LNP) technology used in the Comirnaty mRNA gene therapy, marketed to the public as a “vaccine”.

The companies allege Pfizer used patented delivery technology without permission and are seeking damages, ongoing royalties and, in some jurisdictions, injunctions that could affect future sales.

Pfizer and BioNTech deny the allegations, and no court has ruled against them. The dispute follows Moderna’s agreement to settle similar litigation for up to $2.25 billion, highlighting the perceived commercial value of the controversial mRNA delivery technology.



Beyond the patent claims, the lawsuits have reignited broader debate over the balance between public investment, emergency pandemic powers, corporate profits, transparency and accountability, while critics argue many people who suffered vaccine-related injuries continue to face difficulties obtaining recognition, compensation and medical support.

  1. So Pfizer had indemnity from public prosecution when they introduced their ‘vaccine’ and killed and injured hundreds of thousands of people around the planet, now companies/corporations will have to take revenge for their plandemic. The politicians have got away with it, luxuriating in her Sydney townhouse, and as always its the cannon fodder – AKA the people – who take the brunt.

    • “So Pfizer had indemnity from public prosecution when they introduced their ‘vaccine’ and killed and injured hundreds of thousands of people around the planet”.
      Sickened, maimed and killed multi-millions not to mention those millions still to die or not reproduce is the truth – exactly as planned!
      Now watch the perpetual fools actually vote for chronic habitual liars such as dripkins, limp wrist traitor luxon and co while the hordes invade and breed you whiteys out of existence – bolsheviks / holodomor anyone???
      Fools!

    • Yep, ‘the sole source of truth,’ isn’t welcome anymore in her own country. Stay away Jabcinda.
      However, I’m hoping one day she will be forced to return and face justice.

  2. Yep, they got away with it, all of them,.
    Many are still there in their postions of power, over 80% of our current government for instance. The rest have scuttled of to further riches and honours.
    Nope, face it folks , they won.
    All of them, worldwide.
    Good luck with escaping the next one people.
