A Muslim couple who invented the vaccine to save the world

Quote
The news is full of stories about the vaccine ready to save the world from the pandemic. Pfizer, an American multinational pharmaceutical, is jumping up and down with joy. President Trump is tweeting and complaining, asking why the great news came six days after the elections: it might have flipped the election for him.

But in the midst of this great news, the world will most likely not notice one fact: that the vaccine was invented by two Muslim scientists, Turkish immigrants to Germany. These heroes could protect humanity from a virus that has killed 1,280,000 people and impacted billions.

If Germany had an “American dream” these scientists, physicians, and now billionaires would be its poster child. These two physicians-turned-scientists, Dr. Ugur Sahin and his wife Dr. Özlem Türeci, met each other in a German medical school. She was born to Turkish immigrants and he was four years old when he came with his immigrant parents to Germany. Dr. Sahin is also Professor of Immunology at University of Mainz, Germany.

Fair play!
