it's not fake news. Please read the updated article from the link you posted above:
> Welt am Sonntag also quoted an unidentified German government source as saying Trump was trying to secure the scientists’ work exclusively, and would do anything to get a vaccine for the United States, “but only for the United States.”
- theferalrobot 7y agoYeah, so there is an unsubstantiated german government source and then the very next sentence the company denies it themselves: >CureVac issued a statement on Sunday, in which it said: “The company rejects current rumors of an acquisition”. Finally they give a quote from a US rep: > The U.S. government has spoken with many (more than 25) companies that claim they can help with a vaccine. Most of these companies already received seed funding from U.S. investors... any solution found would be shared with the world
- madez 7y agoThe company CureVac only denied rumours that it will be bought, it did nor deny claims that the Trump administration approached them and tried to buy exclusive access to the vaccine.
