"So let us be confident, let us not be unprepared, let us not be outflanked, let us be wise, vigilant, fighting against those who are trying to tear the faith out of our souls and morality out of our hearts, so that we may remain Catholics, remain united to the Blessed Virgin Mary, remain united to the Roman Catholic Church, remain faithful children of the Church."- Abp. Lefebvre

How much does the COVID-19 vaccine cost, one may ask?
Whether you're insured or uninsured, the out-of-pocket fee for vaccination is exactly the same: zero.
So, if vaccines are "free" and Pfizer alone is set to make tens of billions of dollars in revenue this year, who is paying for them?
The answer of course is citizen tax payers! You, me, vaccinated and unvaccinated.
Not only that, it was taxpayers money who paid for some of the costs of developing the drug in the first place. For example, the Moderna vaccine the US government is footing the entire bill. Moderna is part of Operation Warp Speed, a government program throwing literal billions at finding therapies and vaccines for COVID-19. Moderna has put forth absolutely zero dollars into developing their vaccine. Zilch. Zero. Nada.
