Where is this supposed to end? Vaccine maker Biontech’s share price soared to $ 447.23 per share on Monday. The company was worth around $ 108 billion on the stock exchange. A record. Before the corona pandemic, people tended to associate Mainz with Mainzelmännchen, Carnival and Gutenberg, not with Biontech. Millions of people now know the company, if only because they could read the name on the bottle at the vaccination center or at the doctor’s when they get their syringe against the virus. Actually, the brand name of the vaccine is Comirnaty, but at regulars’ tables, on the street, everyone only speaks of Biontech.
