Big Pharma wants billions more for COVID-19 funding pot

Big Pharma companies have the will to create experimental vaccines and treatments for COVID-19, but they also want more financial help from governments to help them push on.

Speaking with the Financial Times (FT), a number of Big Pharma CEOs told the financial newspaper they want greater outside investment and warned that once the pandemic wanes, governments should heed the lessons from swine flu and Ebola and not simply cut funding when it looks like the worst is over.
