This is just factually incorrect. BioNTech had the capability to produce a vaccine on their own, but not at the scale they needed to. Nor would they have been able to handle distribution. Previously they were only producing various mRNA medication at a much smaller scale.
Pfizer was in a better position to run a large-scale study and create new supply chains at the scale that was needed.
The relationship between BioNTech and Pfizer is not unlike the one between an artist and a music label.
