Moderna alleges that Pfizer infringed on patents for its mRNA vaccine technology. Moderna on Friday filed a lawsuit against vaccine maker, Pfizer and its partner BioNTech, alleging the pharmaceutical companies copied its technology for Covid-19 vaccines. Moderna in a news release accused Pfizer of infringing on its patents for its mRNA technology filed between 2010 and 2016. Moderna previously said it would not enforce patent infringements for its Covid-19 vaccine. More recently, the company said it would "never" enforce its coronavirus vaccine patents in low and middle-income countries.
