  Unless there is a new set of information out there, there has been no confirmation on the exclusivity as part of the negotiation, only the outlandish statements of a socialist politician who is pushing for a top to bottom overhaul of the German health care system. The same sources have been getting a lot of the basic facts wrong (such as the company already being partly owned by the bill and melinda gates foundation, and a large portion of their research happening in Boston). I suspect that this is the same xenophobia that is resulting in the same rumors floating around the US that China has a vaccine that they are denying the rest of the world. Regardless, it might make sense to wait a bit for facts to come out.

      Germany. The Xenophobia in the states that there are some who believe that the Chinese are doing the same to the US.

        Why would that be only limited to Germany? The whole world saw that news story, knowing it would have effects on everyone that's not in the US.
