To the consternation of Ugur Sahin and Ozlem Tureci, much of the couple’s coverage in the German press focused on their Turkish roots. “Our world can be saved. From Mainz. By children of migrants,” was a headline in Bild, Germany’s best-selling tabloid. Their story certainly defies the cliche of owners of doner-kebab stands and fruit-and-vegetable shops— even if Mr Sahin and Ms Tureci, chief executive and chief medical officer, respectively, of BioNTech, would have preferred to read about the details of their firm’s discovery, in partnership with Pfizer, an American drugmaker, of a highly effective vaccine against covid-19.

令乌古尔•萨欣和奥然姆•特雷西这对夫妇惊愕的是，德国媒体对他们的报道大多集中在他们的土耳其血统上。“我们的世界是可以由来自美因茨的移民后代拯救的。”这是德国最畅销小报《图片报》的新闻头条。两夫妻的故事经历无疑与旋转烧烤摊摊主和水果蔬菜店老板的陈词滥调相悖——即使BioNTech制药公司的首席执行官萨欣先生和首席医疗官特雷西女士都更愿意阅读自己的公司与美国制药商辉瑞公司合作研发新冠肺炎高效疫苗的细节。
