is big pharm overcharging for vaccines?

 AlJ has a post about South Africa complaining that big pharm overcharged them for the covid vaccine. 

LINK 

very single contract – there were a total of four that were revealed, with Johnson & Johnson (J&J), Pfizer, the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization (Gavi), and the Serum Institute of India – turned out to overwhelmingly favour Big Pharma and demand South Africa pay much more than its more powerful counterparts to protect its citizens from the worst of COVID.



I know the Philippines was bullied to sign a pfizer paper saying that they wouldnot allow people to sue for liability if something went wrong, and so it was not signed in Jan and we didn't get the Pfizer vaccine for another six months.
