Pfizer is considering implementing a cost-cutting program if demand for its COVID-19 products continues to underperform expectations. Sales of the COVID-19 vaccine, Comirnaty, fell 83% in the second quarter, while revenue from its antiviral treatment, Paxlovid, tumbled 98%. The company expects 2023 to be a low point for COVID product sales but anticipates a potential return to growth next year. Pfizer is also facing challenges such as damage to a warehouse, a narrower-than-expected recommendation for its RSV vaccine, and concerns about the patient population for its recently approved cancer drug. Additionally, the company is preparing for increased competition from cheaper generics for its top-selling drugs.
