OPINION:
Pfizer Inc. and its German partner BioNTech announced an application to the Food and Drug Administration for approval — again, under an emergency use authorization — of the newest COVID-19-tied experimental shot, err, oops, vaccine for, get this, little kids, ages 6 months through 4 years old.
Get ‘em while they’re young! That’s the slogan of street dealers, too.
But where’s the emergency? Even President Joe Biden previously declared the pandemic at an end. Yet the emergency, for some, anyway, persists. It’s the tool for tyrants that keeps on giving.
The emergency use authorizations, also known as EUAs, also known as experimental, also known as lab rat and guinea pig testing, have been Big Pharma’s best friend in the years since COVID became a thing. Same for Big Pharma’s friends in the political and medical bureaucratic worlds — you know, the ones populated by people who like to pretend how much they care for the sickly at the same time making oodles of money off the sickly by exploiting fear and by washing one hand with another? These are the people who insist all in the world must get the very shots they pressed their political partners to mandate and their health partners to declare safe and their media partners to cover up in terms of dangers, all the while flying accountability free under an “emergency use” banner. No wonder COVID has brought record-breaking, billion-dollar profits for the lucky elites. When the elites control the supply chain from start to finish, and have the power to force the purchase of the product and to wipe all media clean of criticisms about the product — money can flow unfettered.
“Just how much COVID-19 vaccine money is on the table? A whopping $157B through 2025, report says,” Fierce Pharma reported back in April, 2021.
Still got a way to go.
And with data like this — “More vaccinated than unvaccinated died from COVID-19 in Augusts: analysis,” from Fierce Pharma — no wonder Big Pharma and their partners are pushing so hard, so fast for kids to get on the vaccines.
Joe Biden’s presidency is coming to an end in two years.
That means the likely end to already needless and nonsensical “emergency use authorizations” for COVID-19 shots.
And that means, Big Pharma will have to go back to its truer testing days — when it took years and years, sometimes even a decade or longer, to bring to market vaccinations. Why? So as to allow for truthful efficacy reporting. So as to allow time for more complete studies on vaccine dangers.
As it stands now, these COVID shots are pretty useless.
They don’t stop people from testing positive for COVID. They don’t stop people from spreading COVID. The best the experts — the oh so very desperate experts — can say about the shots is that they prevent serious illness and death. Now there’s a fabricated bit of data for ya. How exactly to say this — “Thank goodness you got the shot, or you would’ve died! — with any sort of scientific assurance, never mind integrity?
Especially when a study published in March in The New England Journal of Medicine called “Covid-19 Vaccine Effectiveness against the Omicron (B.1.1.529) Variant” focusing on the Pfizer-BioNTech, AstraZeneca and Moderna shots found this: “No effect against the omicron variant was noted from 20 weeks after two [AstraZeneca] does, whereas vaccine effectiveness after two [Pfizer/BioNTech] doses was 65.5% … at 2 to 4 weeks, dropping to 8.8% … at 25 or more weeks.”
In other words: Pfizer/BioNTech’s shots dropped to nearly the same level of uselessness as AstraZeneca’s. You just had to wait a little while.
You’d think that would tell Big Pharma to hit the road on the COVID-tied shots; to take their billions of dollars and cut and run.
You’d think that would lead politicians to pronounce the emergency use authorizations a failure of safety and necessity for the American people.
You’d think this all would lead to some red-faced bureaucrats among the medical bureaucratic crowd, for their tyrannical vaccine mandates, for one; for their exploitation of citizens’ fears to push their tyrannical vaccine mandates, for another.
But no.
Now these same medical tyrants are coming for the kids.
From the Hill: Pfizer and BioNTech are asking the FDA for an EUA for “their omicron-adapted bivalent COVID-19 vaccine as the third shot in a three-dose series for children ages 6 months through 4 years. … If authorized, the children would still receive two doses of the original vaccine, and then a third dose that specifically targets the omicron variant of the coronavirus.”
Perhaps this latest vaccine version will prove to be an actual vaccine — that is, before the medical definition of vaccine was changed from something that largely prevents to something that does not prevent.
But if history on all these COVID-19 vaccines prevails, chances are these shots won’t be any better than previous ones. If past proves future, these shots will neither prevent the person from contracting the virus, nor prevent the virus from spreading to others.
Don’t count on knowing that for months, though.
If history prevails, the truthful data on COVID-19-ties shots in little kids will be covered up, disguised, buried and concealed, slanted, spun and the like. If past proves future, the gaslighting on these shots will go on for years and years.
