      Tras el "Nobel Judío" concedido a Bourla a principios de este año, la República Helénica marca la contribución del consejero delegado de Pfizer para la lucha contra la COVID-19 y para salvar vidas

      NEW YORK, April 11, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- El 5 de abril de 2022, el presidente y consejero delegado de Pfizer, Albert Bourla, fue honrado con el principal premio civil de Grecia por sus esfuerzos en el desarrollo de una vacuna contra la COVID-19 que salva vidas. La presidenta griega, Katerina Sakellaropoulou, entregó al doctor Bourla la Cruz de Oro de la Orden del Redentor, la condecoración más antigua y más alta del estado griego, que se concede por un servicio excepcional en las áreas política, económica y humanitaria.

      Se trata del segundo honor de alto nivel otorgado al doctor Bourla este año. A principios de enero, Albert Bourla fue anunciado como el Laureado del Premio Genesis 2022, también conocido como el "Nobel Judío". El premio reconoce el liderazgo de Bourla en la entrega de una vacuna de la COVID-19 segura y eficaz en tiempo récord, que salvó millones de vidas en medio de la pandemia, además de su compromiso con su identidad judía y el Estado de Israel.

      El presidente de Israel, Isaac Herzog, será el encargado de presentar el Premio Genesis al doctor Bourla en una ceremonia que se llevará a cabo en Jerusalén el 29 de junio.

      Nacido en Tesalónica, Grecia, el doctor Bourla se crió en una familia de supervivientes del Holocausto. Sus padres estaban entre los pocos que quedaron vivos entre la antigua comunidad judía de la ciudad, casi completamente aniquilada por los nazis. El doctor Bourla solicitó a la Genesis Prize Foundation que destinara su premio de 1 millón de dólares a proyectos destinados a preservar la memoria de las víctimas del Holocausto en Tesalónica.

      "Dos premios importantes anunciados este año - griego y judío - atestiguan el logro extraordinario del doctor Bourla y el equipo de Pfizer, que dirigió durante la peor crisis de salud pública que se ha tenido en más de 100 años", explicó Stan Polovets, fundador y presidente de la Genesis Prize Foundation. "Asumiendo grandes riesgos, le dieron al mundo una vacuna que salva vidas en un tiempo récord - meses en lugar de años. Esperamos llevar a cabo las celebraciones junto al doctor Bourla y este logro histórico en Jerusalén en junio".

      Acerca del Premio Genesis

      El Premio Genesis es un premio mundial que celebra los logros y la contribución de los judíos a la humanidad. Como ganador del noveno Premio Genesis, el doctor Bourla sigue al cineasta y filántropo Steven Spielberg, quien recibió el Premio Genesis en 2021, y al legendario activista de derechos humanos Natan Sharansky, el laureado en el año 2020.

      Todos los premiados anteriores han vuelto a regalar su premio a causas filantrópicas que les apasionan. Desde su creación en 2013, el Premio Genesis ha recaudado fondos equivalentes, aprovechando el premio anual de 1 millón de dólares en iniciativas filantrópicas por un total de 45 millones de dólares, con subvenciones destinadas a 197 programas sin ánimo de lucro en 31 países, impactando directamente las vidas de decenas de miles de personas.
