Moderna Sues Pfizer and BioNTech for Patent Infringement in Relation to mRNA COVID-19 Jab

Pfizer and BioNTech are being accused of infringing Moderna’s patents while working on the first COVID-19 vaccine to be approved for use in the United States. This news was revealed by Moderna on Friday.

“Moderna believes that Pfizer and BioNTech’s COVID-19 vaccine Comirnaty infringes patents Moderna filed between 2010 and 2016 covering Moderna’s foundational mRNA technology,” Moderna said in a news release.

“This groundbreaking technology was critical to the development of Moderna’s own mRNA COVID-19 vaccine, Spikevax. Pfizer and BioNTech copied this technology, without Moderna’s permission, to make Comirnaty,” said Moderna.

“We are filing these lawsuits to protect the innovative mRNA technology platform that we pioneered, invested billions of dollars in creating, and patented during the decade preceding the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Moderna Chief Executive Officer Stéphane Bancel.

The lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts and the Regional Court of Düsseldorf in Germany.

“We believe that Pfizer and BioNTech unlawfully copied Moderna’s inventions, and they have continued to use them without permission,” said Moderna Chief Legal Officer Shannon Thyme Klinger. “Outside of AMC 92 countries, where vaccine supply is no longer a barrier to access, Moderna expects Pfizer and BioNTech to compensate Moderna for Comirnaty’s ongoing use of Moderna’s patented technologies.

In March, Moderna updated its pledge to not enforce COVID-related patents until October 2020.

“In October 2020, Moderna pledged not to enforce its COVID-19-related patents while the pandemic continued. In March 2022, when the collective fight against COVID-19 entered a new phase and vaccine supply was no longer a barrier to access in many parts of the world, Moderna updated its pledge. It made clear that while it would never enforce its patents for any COVID-19 vaccine used in the 92 low- and middle-income countries in the GAVI COVAX Advance Market Commitment (AMC 92), Moderna expected companies such as Pfizer and BioNTech to respect its intellectual property rights and would consider a commercially reasonable license should they request one for other markets. Pfizer and BioNTech have failed to do so.”

“Moderna is not seeking damages related to Pfizer’s sales to AMC 92 countries and is not seeking damages for Pfizer’s sales where the U.S. Government would be responsible for any damages. Consistent with Moderna’s patent pledge, the Company is also not seeking damages for activities occurring before March 8, 2022,” Moderna said.

The Gateway Pundit previously reported that rats that were injected with Moderna’s experimental mRNA editing COVID vaccines developed rib malformations, according to documents newly obtained internal documents from the pharmaceutical giant via a Freedom of Information Act request by Judicial Watch.

The government watchdog obtained 700 pages document package from the pharmaceutical company including excerpts of Moderna’s formal Biological Licensing Application application, a form drug manufacturers are required to submit to the Food and Drug Administration for approval.

The documents also contain test results of reproductive toxicology tests conducted on rodents. The test results confirm Moderna’s gene-editing shots cause skeletal disfigurement in the offspring of rats that were injected with doses of mRNA-1273 or Spikevax mRNA.

Also, per court order, the FDA release Pfizer trial data each month.  According to a Pfizer adverse events report published on July 1, a staggering 44 percent of all women who participated in Pfizer’s COVID vaccine trial ended up losing their unborn babies. Pfizer maintains the abnormal number of still births has no correlation to it’s  COVID vaccination trial.

The physician who invented the mRNA technology contained in COVID vaccines is urging all parents to abstain from vaccinating their children with the “irreversible” inoculation that could permanently damage their critical organs, reproductive systems and immune systems, as reported by TGP.

The public is being misled about the vaccine’s efficacy and effects, warns Dr. Robert Malone, the Chief Medical and Regulatory Officer for The Unity Project who invented messenger mRNA therapeutics in 1988.

“Parents, before you inject your child, a decision that is irreversible, I wanted to let you know the scientific facts about this genetic vaccine which is based on the mRNA vaccine technology I created,” Malone explained.

Malone was castigated as a “conspiracy theorist” and banned from social media after sounding the alarm on government deception surrounding the COVID vaccine.

CDC even released a new study examining international data and policies on preferential recommendations of an mRNA vaccine product or extended primary series intervals as they relate to myocarditis and/or pericarditis. Below is the summary of findings in each country.

USA: Summary of Findings

Canada: Summary of findings

United Kingdom: Summary of findings

Nordic Countries: Nordic cohort, myocarditis results

Denmark: SARS-CoV-2 vaccination and myocarditis or myopericarditis: population-based cohort study

France and Germany: Summary of findings

According to the summary of findings, the risk of myocarditis may be higher for Moderna than the Pfizer vaccine.

The study concluded that myocarditis and pericarditis may be associated with Moderna vs. Pfizer especially in males aged 18-29 years old and also with shorter primary series intervals.
