Pfizer CEO Dr. Albert Bourla was loudly booed during a White House Black History Month event.
An introduction by President Donald Trump resulted in a less-than-enthusiastic welcome for Bourla as jeers erupted from some sections of the audience.

“We also have with us the head of Pfizer … so I want to thank one of the great people…,” Trump can be heard saying amidst the booing.
“One of the great businessmen,” Trump continued. “Thank you, Albert, thank you.”
Bourla was at the White House with other pharmaceutical executives for discussions with the Trump administration’s new Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. The group was scheduled to meet and discuss former President Joe Biden’s drug pricing policies.
X users reacted to the sour reception:

Nobody at Pfizer is a great person. They’re criminals. The only place Trump should be introducing them at is Gitmo!

I think that last thank you was to the crowd. He looked very amused.

Hey, @POTUS @realDonaldTrump actually loves and appreciates market signals because he comes from the business world. The audience reaction was PERFECT vs. the CV1984 warcriminal. He’ll now never forget it. https://t.co/KbVwpU5HOh

I thought the last month was great. I thought the first 100 days would be amazing. I thought the first year would be phenomenal.
