El repte de la vacuna
la història desde dins : com es va assolir l'impossible en nou mesos
Bourla, Albert
On November 9, 2020, Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, announced a breakthrough in the fight against COVID-19, the approval of its first mRNA vaccine. The news came amid a terrifying surge in new infections and deaths, cementing the drugmaker's lead in a frantic global race that had unfolded at record speed. We chose to go to the Moon is the first-person testimony of the nine months that elapsed between the start of the pandemic and the approval of the vaccine and how Albert Bourla, a Greek immigrant, the son of Holocaust survivors and a veterinarian by training, faced to the obstacles, pressures and difficulties in resolving an unprecedented pandemic crisis. This book is the chronicle written in the first person of one of the most significant scientific achievements in the history of mankind, but it is, above all, a magnificent demonstration of the strength of an idea: how to make the impossible possible.
