Pfizer’s Susan Rienow: from Covid to fighting the ‘silent pandemic’ The pharma giant’s UK chief is adding the company’s voice to scientists’ warnings of the dangers of antibacterial resistance

Pfizer’s president in the UK, Susan Rienow, is lobbying to switch the focus towards early-stage illness to prevent people being hospitalised. “We have a once-in-a-generation opportunity coming out of the pandemic to try to break the cycle of ill health that holds back the economy, the NHS and the health of the population. The key to that is prevention,” she says. “We don’t have enough hospital beds for all the patients who need them.” The Guardian
