The price for the Pfizer pill is nearly 25%lower at roughly $530 per course, compared with about $700 for Merck's.

Nov 18 (Reuters) - Pfizer Inc (PFE.N) said on Thursday the U.S. government would pay $5.29 billion for 10 million courses of its experimental COVID-19 antiviral drug, as the country rushes to secure promising oral treatments for the disease.

The deal is for around twice as many treatment courses as Merck & Co Inc (MRK.N) has agreed to supply the United States under its contract. The price for the Pfizer pill is nearly 25%lower at roughly $530 per course, compared with about $700 for Merck's.
