Superficially does seem like Pfizer’s new drug is superior. ”Only about 0.8% of patients who received Paxlovid were hospitalized through day 28 compared to 7% of patients who received placebo and were hospitalized or died.Merck reported that 7.3% of patients who received molnupiravir were either hospitalized or died through day 29 compared with 14.1% of placebo-treated patients.”Looking at the above figures, about double of those who received placebo for Merck’s died compared to Pfizer. Does it mean that the patients recruited into Merck’s study are sicker? Without going into studying both trials in detail, suffice to say both appear to be efficacious but I’m not too sure if Pfizer’s is superior to Merck’s.

  In a sense, pfizer has both treatment and vaccine. But the efficacy of the available vaccines against the newer strains especially is always an issue of contention

The Merck news triggered an across-the-board sell-off in vaccine stocks at that time.\nThese two companies with deep pockets and marketing expertise are vying for a piece of the COVID-19 treatment market, making the competitive landscape all the more interesting.\nPfizer Vs. Merck Data Comparison:As opposed the 89% reduction in risk of hospitalization or death reported by Pfizer for Paxlovid, an interim analysis of Merck's Phase 3 data released on Oct. 1 showed molnupiravir reducing the risk of hospitalization or death by approximately 50%.\nOnly about 0.8% of patients who received Paxlovid were hospitalized through day 28 compared to 7% of patients who received placebo and were hospitalized or died.\nSimilar reductions in COVID-19-related hospitalization or death were observed in patients treated within five days of symptom onset.\nMerck reported that 7.3% of patients who received molnupiravir were either hospitalized or died through day 29 compared with 14.1% of placebo-treated patients.\nThrough day 28, no deaths were reported in patients who received Paxlovid as compared to 10 deaths in patients who received placebo. With Merck, through day 29, no deaths were reported in patients who received molnupiravir, as compared to eight deaths in patients who received placebo.\nNot only is Pfizer's drug safe, but the level of efficacy is so high that it will very meaningfully shake up the COVID landscape looking to next year— including the outlook for boosters, BofA Securities analyst Geoff Meacham said in a note.\n\"Between Roche Holding AG's recent failure and Merck's decent efficacy, Pfizer's drug will be the clear best-in-class oral, and well positioned to capitalize on the longer term C-19 treatment market that could be in the mid-to-high billions next year,\" Meacham said.\nAuthorization Before Year-End?At the recommendation of an independent Data Monitoring Committee and in consultation with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Pfizer will cease further enrollment into the study due to the overwhelming efficacy demonstrated in these results, the company said.\nIt plans to submit the data as part of its ongoing rolling submission to the authorization as soon as possible.\nBofA expects the application to be soon submitted to the FDA, with an authorization likely by the end of the year.\nMeanwhile, Merck announced Thursday it has received the first authorization for molnupiravir in the U.K., with the drug to be marketed under the brand name Lagevrio.\nIts application with the FDA is under review. The European Medicines Agency has recently initiated a rolling review of its Marketing Authorization Application. Merck also said it is actively working to submit applications to other regulatory agencies around the world.\nThe commercial outlook could dramatically shift in favor of Pfizer's pill given how much more impressive the data is, BofA said. Merck's revenue guidance of $5 billion to $7 billion through 2022 provided on its third-quarter call last week could be reduced meaningfully, the firm added.\nMeanwhile, Gilead, Inc.'s antiviral remdesivir could remain an option for hospitalized patients, but overall its use is likely to further diminish, in BofA's view.","kind":"news","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[{"id":845141416,"gmtCreate":1636323806464,"gmtModify":1636323807289,"author":{"id":"3586941861951066","authorId":"3586941861951066","name":"EHG","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/28e4734e50f795c3218330cbb6c3e9a0","vip":1,"crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3586941861951066","authorIdStr":"3586941861951066"},"htmlText":"Like&nbsp;","listText":"Like&nbsp;","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/845141416","repostId":1152406340,"repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1152406340","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1636157546,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1152406340?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-06 08:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Will Pfizer Outgun Merck With Oral COVID-19 Pill?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1152406340","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Merck, Inc. is locking horns with peer Pfizer, Inc. in what could be termed as the battle supremacy ","content":"<div>\n<p>Merck, Inc. is locking horns with peer Pfizer, Inc. in what could be termed as the battle supremacy in the COVID-19 treatment market.\nThe stakes are high, with an effective treatment for the disease ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/21/11/23925379/will-pfizer-outgun-merck-with-oral-covid-19-pill\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"lsy1606299360108","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

With Merck, through day 29, no deaths were reported in patients who received molnupiravir, as compared to eight deaths in patients who received placebo.\nNot only is Pfizer's drug safe, but the level of efficacy is so high that it will very meaningfully shake up the COVID landscape looking to next year— including the outlook for boosters, BofA Securities analyst Geoff Meacham said in a note.\n\"Between Roche Holding AG's recent failure and Merck's decent efficacy, Pfizer's drug will be the clear best-in-class oral, and well positioned to capitalize on the longer term C-19 treatment market that could be in the mid-to-high billions next year,\" Meacham said.\nAuthorization Before Year-End?At the recommendation of an independent Data Monitoring Committee and in consultation with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Pfizer will cease further enrollment into the study due to the overwhelming efficacy demonstrated in these results, the company said.\nIt plans to submit the data as part of its ongoing rolling submission to the authorization as soon as possible.\nBofA expects the application to be soon submitted to the FDA, with an authorization likely by the end of the year.\nMeanwhile, Merck announced Thursday it has received the first authorization for molnupiravir in the U.K., with the drug to be marketed under the brand name Lagevrio.\nIts application with the FDA is under review. The European Medicines Agency has recently initiated a rolling review of its Marketing Authorization Application. Merck also said it is actively working to submit applications to other regulatory agencies around the world.\nThe commercial outlook could dramatically shift in favor of Pfizer's pill given how much more impressive the data is, BofA said. Merck's revenue guidance of $5 billion to $7 billion through 2022 provided on its third-quarter call last week could be reduced meaningfully, the firm added.\nMeanwhile, Gilead, Inc.'s antiviral remdesivir could remain an option for hospitalized patients, but overall its use is likely to further diminish, in BofA's view.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"MRK":0.9,"PFE":0.9}},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"CN"},{"id":845324315,"gmtCreate":1636289583963,"gmtModify":1636289584416,"author":{"id":"4087109808120260","authorId":"4087109808120260","name":"Tanyl","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/174329973340cf0f5b68791ee5b08afd","vip":1,"crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"4087109808120260","authorIdStr":"4087109808120260"},"htmlText":"PFE suddenly up because of this news ?","listText":"PFE suddenly up because of this news ?","text":"PFE suddenly up because of this news ?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/845324315","repostId":1152406340,"repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1152406340","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1636157546,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1152406340?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-06 08:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Will Pfizer Outgun Merck With Oral COVID-19 Pill?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1152406340","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Merck, Inc. is locking horns with peer Pfizer, Inc. in what could be termed as the battle supremacy ","content":"<div>\n<p>Merck, Inc. is locking horns with peer Pfizer, Inc. in what could be termed as the battle supremacy in the COVID-19 treatment market.\nThe stakes are high, with an effective treatment for the disease ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/21/11/23925379/will-pfizer-outgun-merck-with-oral-covid-19-pill\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"lsy1606299360108","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The Merck news triggered an across-the-board sell-off in vaccine stocks at that time.\nThese two companies with deep pockets and marketing expertise are vying for a piece of the COVID-19 treatment market, making the competitive landscape all the more interesting.\nPfizer Vs. Merck Data Comparison:As opposed the 89% reduction in risk of hospitalization or death reported by Pfizer for Paxlovid, an interim analysis of Merck's Phase 3 data released on Oct. 1 showed molnupiravir reducing the risk of hospitalization or death by approximately 50%.\nOnly about 0.8% of patients who received Paxlovid were hospitalized through day 28 compared to 7% of patients who received placebo and were hospitalized or died.\nSimilar reductions in COVID-19-related hospitalization or death were observed in patients treated within five days of symptom onset.\nMerck reported that 7.3% of patients who received molnupiravir were either hospitalized or died through day 29 compared with 14.1% of placebo-treated patients.\nThrough day 28, no deaths were reported in patients who received Paxlovid as compared to 10 deaths in patients who received placebo. With Merck, through day 29, no deaths were reported in patients who received molnupiravir, as compared to eight deaths in patients who received placebo.\nNot only is Pfizer's drug safe, but the level of efficacy is so high that it will very meaningfully shake up the COVID landscape looking to next year— including the outlook for boosters, BofA Securities analyst Geoff Meacham said in a note.\n\"Between Roche Holding AG's recent failure and Merck's decent efficacy, Pfizer's drug will be the clear best-in-class oral, and well positioned to capitalize on the longer term C-19 treatment market that could be in the mid-to-high billions next year,\" Meacham said.\nAuthorization Before Year-End?At the recommendation of an independent Data Monitoring Committee and in consultation with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Pfizer will cease further enrollment into the study due to the overwhelming efficacy demonstrated in these results, the company said.\nIt plans to submit the data as part of its ongoing rolling submission to the authorization as soon as possible.\nBofA expects the application to be soon submitted to the FDA, with an authorization likely by the end of the year.\nMeanwhile, Merck announced Thursday it has received the first authorization for molnupiravir in the U.K., with the drug to be marketed under the brand name Lagevrio.\nIts application with the FDA is under review. The European Medicines Agency has recently initiated a rolling review of its Marketing Authorization Application. Merck also said it is actively working to submit applications to other regulatory agencies around the world.\nThe commercial outlook could dramatically shift in favor of Pfizer's pill given how much more impressive the data is, BofA said.

The Merck news triggered an across-the-board sell-off in vaccine stocks at that time.\nThese two companies with deep pockets and marketing expertise are vying for a piece of the COVID-19 treatment market, making the competitive landscape all the more interesting.\nPfizer Vs. Merck Data Comparison:As opposed the 89% reduction in risk of hospitalization or death reported by Pfizer for Paxlovid, an interim analysis of Merck's Phase 3 data released on Oct. 1 showed molnupiravir reducing the risk of hospitalization or death by approximately 50%.\nOnly about 0.8% of patients who received Paxlovid were hospitalized through day 28 compared to 7% of patients who received placebo and were hospitalized or died.\nSimilar reductions in COVID-19-related hospitalization or death were observed in patients treated within five days of symptom onset.\nMerck reported that 7.3% of patients who received molnupiravir were either hospitalized or died through day 29 compared with 14.1% of placebo-treated patients.\nThrough day 28, no deaths were reported in patients who received Paxlovid as compared to 10 deaths in patients who received placebo. With Merck, through day 29, no deaths were reported in patients who received molnupiravir, as compared to eight deaths in patients who received placebo.\nNot only is Pfizer's drug safe, but the level of efficacy is so high that it will very meaningfully shake up the COVID landscape looking to next year— including the outlook for boosters, BofA Securities analyst Geoff Meacham said in a note.\n\"Between Roche Holding AG's recent failure and Merck's decent efficacy, Pfizer's drug will be the clear best-in-class oral, and well positioned to capitalize on the longer term C-19 treatment market that could be in the mid-to-high billions next year,\" Meacham said.\nAuthorization Before Year-End?At the recommendation of an independent Data Monitoring Committee and in consultation with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Pfizer will cease further enrollment into the study due to the overwhelming efficacy demonstrated in these results, the company said.\nIt plans to submit the data as part of its ongoing rolling submission to the authorization as soon as possible.\nBofA expects the application to be soon submitted to the FDA, with an authorization likely by the end of the year.\nMeanwhile, Merck announced Thursday it has received the first authorization for molnupiravir in the U.K., with the drug to be marketed under the brand name Lagevrio.\nIts application with the FDA is under review. The European Medicines Agency has recently initiated a rolling review of its Marketing Authorization Application. Merck also said it is actively working to submit applications to other regulatory agencies around the world.\nThe commercial outlook could dramatically shift in favor of Pfizer's pill given how much more impressive the data is, BofA said. Merck's revenue guidance of $5 billion to $7 billion through 2022 provided on its third-quarter call last week could be reduced meaningfully, the firm added.\nMeanwhile, Gilead, Inc.'s antiviral remdesivir could remain an option for hospitalized patients, but overall its use is likely to further diminish, in BofA's view.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"MRK":0.9,"PFE":0.9}},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"CN"},{"id":845009191,"gmtCreate":1636249917209,"gmtModify":1636250323127,"author":{"id":"4097720712211120","authorId":"4097720712211120","name":"TradeMore","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/976c10f5e71e9a3b002205015f764d44","vip":1,"crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"4097720712211120","authorIdStr":"4097720712211120"},"htmlText":"Good&nbsp;","listText":"Good&nbsp;","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/845009191","repostId":1152406340,"repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1152406340","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1636157546,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1152406340?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-06 08:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Will Pfizer Outgun Merck With Oral COVID-19 Pill?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1152406340","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Merck, Inc. is locking horns with peer Pfizer, Inc. in what could be termed as the battle supremacy ","content":"<div>\n<p>Merck, Inc. is locking horns with peer Pfizer, Inc. in what could be termed as the battle supremacy in the COVID-19 treatment market.\nThe stakes are high, with an effective treatment for the disease ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/21/11/23925379/will-pfizer-outgun-merck-with-oral-covid-19-pill\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"lsy1606299360108","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

With Merck, through day 29, no deaths were reported in patients who received molnupiravir, as compared to eight deaths in patients who received placebo.\nNot only is Pfizer's drug safe, but the level of efficacy is so high that it will very meaningfully shake up the COVID landscape looking to next year— including the outlook for boosters, BofA Securities analyst Geoff Meacham said in a note.\n\"Between Roche Holding AG's recent failure and Merck's decent efficacy, Pfizer's drug will be the clear best-in-class oral, and well positioned to capitalize on the longer term C-19 treatment market that could be in the mid-to-high billions next year,\" Meacham said.\nAuthorization Before Year-End?At the recommendation of an independent Data Monitoring Committee and in consultation with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Pfizer will cease further enrollment into the study due to the overwhelming efficacy demonstrated in these results, the company said.\nIt plans to submit the data as part of its ongoing rolling submission to the authorization as soon as possible.\nBofA expects the application to be soon submitted to the FDA, with an authorization likely by the end of the year.\nMeanwhile, Merck announced Thursday it has received the first authorization for molnupiravir in the U.K., with the drug to be marketed under the brand name Lagevrio.\nIts application with the FDA is under review. The European Medicines Agency has recently initiated a rolling review of its Marketing Authorization Application. Merck also said it is actively working to submit applications to other regulatory agencies around the world.\nThe commercial outlook could dramatically shift in favor of Pfizer's pill given how much more impressive the data is, BofA said. Merck's revenue guidance of $5 billion to $7 billion through 2022 provided on its third-quarter call last week could be reduced meaningfully, the firm added.\nMeanwhile, Gilead, Inc.'s antiviral remdesivir could remain an option for hospitalized patients, but overall its use is likely to further diminish, in BofA's view.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"MRK":0.9,"PFE":0.9}},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":6480954,"gmtCreate":1636242965785,"gmtModify":1636242965882,"authorId":3579235597126488,"author":{"id":3579235597126488,"idStr":"3579235597126488","authorId":3579235597126488,"name":"Cvt","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c8fda02901ec7a98b51fe8e84d016ab2","vip":1,"crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":842796481,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"Like","text":"Like","html":"Like"}],"langContent":"CN"},{"id":842420093,"gmtCreate":1636225809669,"gmtModify":1636225810128,"author":{"id":"4087709618925430","authorId":"4087709618925430","name":"Jjjjia","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/25215d9b4b22838734cba07948cafe46","vip":1,"crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"4087709618925430","authorIdStr":"4087709618925430"},"htmlText":"Pls like&nbsp;","listText":"Pls like&nbsp;","text":"Pls like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/842420093","repostId":1152406340,"repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1152406340","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1636157546,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1152406340?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-06 08:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Will Pfizer Outgun Merck With Oral COVID-19 Pill?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1152406340","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Merck, Inc. is locking horns with peer Pfizer, Inc. in what could be termed as the battle supremacy ","content":"<div>\n<p>Merck, Inc. is locking horns with peer Pfizer, Inc. in what could be termed as the battle supremacy in the COVID-19 treatment market.\nThe stakes are high, with an effective treatment for the disease ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/21/11/23925379/will-pfizer-outgun-merck-with-oral-covid-19-pill\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"lsy1606299360108","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The Merck news triggered an across-the-board sell-off in vaccine stocks at that time.\nThese two companies with deep pockets and marketing expertise are vying for a piece of the COVID-19 treatment market, making the competitive landscape all the more interesting.\nPfizer Vs. Merck Data Comparison:As opposed the 89% reduction in risk of hospitalization or death reported by Pfizer for Paxlovid, an interim analysis of Merck's Phase 3 data released on Oct. 1 showed molnupiravir reducing the risk of hospitalization or death by approximately 50%.\nOnly about 0.8% of patients who received Paxlovid were hospitalized through day 28 compared to 7% of patients who received placebo and were hospitalized or died.\nSimilar reductions in COVID-19-related hospitalization or death were observed in patients treated within five days of symptom onset.\nMerck reported that 7.3% of patients who received molnupiravir were either hospitalized or died through day 29 compared with 14.1% of placebo-treated patients.\nThrough day 28, no deaths were reported in patients who received Paxlovid as compared to 10 deaths in patients who received placebo. With Merck, through day 29, no deaths were reported in patients who received molnupiravir, as compared to eight deaths in patients who received placebo.\nNot only is Pfizer's drug safe, but the level of efficacy is so high that it will very meaningfully shake up the COVID landscape looking to next year— including the outlook for boosters, BofA Securities analyst Geoff Meacham said in a note.\n\"Between Roche Holding AG's recent failure and Merck's decent efficacy, Pfizer's drug will be the clear best-in-class oral, and well positioned to capitalize on the longer term C-19 treatment market that could be in the mid-to-high billions next year,\" Meacham said.\nAuthorization Before Year-End?At the recommendation of an independent Data Monitoring Committee and in consultation with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Pfizer will cease further enrollment into the study due to the overwhelming efficacy demonstrated in these results, the company said.\nIt plans to submit the data as part of its ongoing rolling submission to the authorization as soon as possible.\nBofA expects the application to be soon submitted to the FDA, with an authorization likely by the end of the year.\nMeanwhile, Merck announced Thursday it has received the first authorization for molnupiravir in the U.K., with the drug to be marketed under the brand name Lagevrio.\nIts application with the FDA is under review. The European Medicines Agency has recently initiated a rolling review of its Marketing Authorization Application. Merck also said it is actively working to submit applications to other regulatory agencies around the world.\nThe commercial outlook could dramatically shift in favor of Pfizer's pill given how much more impressive the data is, BofA said. Merck's revenue guidance of $5 billion to $7 billion through 2022 provided on its third-quarter call last week could be reduced meaningfully, the firm added.\nMeanwhile, Gilead, Inc.'s antiviral remdesivir could remain an option for hospitalized patients, but overall its use is likely to further diminish, in BofA's view.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"MRK":0.9,"PFE":0.9}},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":6476567,"gmtCreate":1636184189152,"gmtModify":1636186002221,"authorId":3579482809178950,"author":{"id":3579482809178950,"idStr":"3579482809178950","authorId":3579482809178950,"name":"Dawang","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d0f01f2346125f600328ffd48beb3a4c","vip":1,"crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":842269757,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"Agreed, the impending FDA's approval, should provide another feather in their caps. 👍😊💰","text":"Agreed, the impending FDA's approval, should provide another feather in their caps. 👍😊💰","html":"Agreed, the impending FDA's approval, should provide another feather in their caps. 👍😊💰"}],"langContent":"CN"},{"id":842293136,"gmtCreate":1636177582578,"gmtModify":1636177583932,"author":{"id":"3573703375513385","authorId":"3573703375513385","name":"JonLucky","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/15afb66e92e4e4d6d1a8e9b7854e9d5e","vip":1,"crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3573703375513385","authorIdStr":"3573703375513385"},"htmlText":"This is a healthy competition.","listText":"This is a healthy competition.","text":"This is a healthy competition.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/842293136","repostId":1152406340,"repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1152406340","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1636157546,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1152406340?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-06 08:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Will Pfizer Outgun Merck With Oral COVID-19 Pill?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1152406340","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Merck, Inc. is locking horns with peer Pfizer, Inc. in what could be termed as the battle supremacy ","content":"<div>\n<p>Merck, Inc. is locking horns with peer Pfizer, Inc. in what could be termed as the battle supremacy in the COVID-19 treatment market.\nThe stakes are high, with an effective treatment for the disease ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/21/11/23925379/will-pfizer-outgun-merck-with-oral-covid-19-pill\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"lsy1606299360108","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Merck also said it is actively working to submit applications to other regulatory agencies around the world.\nThe commercial outlook could dramatically shift in favor of Pfizer's pill given how much more impressive the data is, BofA said. Merck's revenue guidance of $5 billion to $7 billion through 2022 provided on its third-quarter call last week could be reduced meaningfully, the firm added.\nMeanwhile, Gilead, Inc.'s antiviral remdesivir could remain an option for hospitalized patients, but overall its use is likely to further diminish, in BofA's view.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"MRK":0.9,"PFE":0.9}},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":6480756,"gmtCreate":1636242269421,"gmtModify":1636242269531,"authorId":3567307840510045,"author":{"id":3567307840510045,"idStr":"3567307840510045","authorId":3567307840510045,"name":"JeremyKok","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/01b03a485f83b6b2615fad8ac9b87bf4","vip":1,"crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":842208321,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"hi. please like and comment back. thank you.","text":"hi. please like and comment back. thank you.","html":"hi. please like and comment back. thank you."},{"id":6478882,"gmtCreate":1636208707590,"gmtModify":1636208707619,"authorId":3570360623104656,"author":{"id":3570360623104656,"idStr":"3570360623104656","authorId":3570360623104656,"name":"zhen130","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/553509e2e649eaf0d39f267a7e6de1a1","vip":1,"crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":842208321,"type":1,"supId":6476619,"prevId":0,"content":"<u>Done</u>","text":"<u>Done</u>","html":"<u>Done</u>"},{"id":6476619,"gmtCreate":1636184831213,"gmtModify":1636184831316,"authorId":4091758936365950,"author":{"id":4091758936365950,"idStr":"4091758936365950","authorId":4091758936365950,"name":"MHh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/54b2feced9ef5dcc9e95997d1f4db280","vip":1,"crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":842208321,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"Ok","text":"Ok","html":"Ok"}],"langContent":"CN"}],"hasMoreComments":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":444,"commentSize":71,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":3,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"isCrawlerRequest":true}
