OPINION:
The smoke is finally clearing from the coronavirus battle.
The picture emerging is one of shortcomings in government-approved vaccines, which are raising serious questions about past and present assurances that the mandated drugs were and are “safe and effective.”
Experts disputing the efficacy of these novel medications must be heard and the reliability of these treatments validated before officials repeat the mistakes made at the height of the COVID-19 era whenever the next pandemic is declared.
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton may uncover some of those answers through his lawsuit against the drugmaker Pfizer for purportedly violating the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act.
In a 54-page complaint filed last month, Mr. Paxton writes:
“In summary, Pfizer intentionally misrepresented the efficacy of its COVID-19 vaccine and censored persons who threatened to disseminate the truth in order to facilitate fast adoption of the product and expand its commercial opportunity.”
After the pharmaceutical company’s widespread inoculation of virus-fearing Americans in 2021, more died than in the previous year. In some locales, the lawsuit states, COVID-19 claimed more lives among the vaccinated than the unvaccinated — despite the company’s promotion of its new product as “95% effective.”
In an abbreviated, two-month period of clinical trials, the Pfizer vaccine demonstrated robust reduction of infection risk. Yet in 2021, virus mutations emerged, including the Delta variant, resulting in a rapid drop in vaccine effectiveness.
In Israel, according to the Texas lawsuit, effectiveness plunged from 64% to 39% in a month, belying the 95% claim. The firm’s two-year, $75 billion windfall, the complaint asserts, is “attributable to its unlawful deceptive trade practices.”
Separate questions have arisen about potential danger to human health from the cutting-edge mRNA technology used to create the vaccines manufactured by Pfizer, Moderna and other pharmaceutical companies.
Robert Malone, an early mRNA technology pioneer, said in recent testimony before the British Parliament that authorities made wildly exaggerated claims that COVID-19 was killing at a frighteningly high 3.4% rate to justify the extraordinary rapid formulation and deployment of the vaccines.
Moreover, assurances that the medication would remain at the site of injection were also false, he said. Rather, the vaccines have been shown to circulate throughout the body, infiltrating various organs “and remain biologically active for an undetermined period of time.”
Other experts have alleged fragments of DNA used in vaccine manufacturing have been found in batches of the drugs. A preprint paper published in October by a University of Guelph researcher in Ontario, Canada, found “the presence of billions to hundreds of billions of DNA molecules per dose in these vaccines,” referring to the Pfizer and Moderna products. Untethered DNA has a small but not negligible potential for penetration of cells and causing a range of side effects that include cancer.
With the benefit of hindsight, inquiring minds are comparing the “safe and effective” vaccine assurances with the underwhelming results. “What we need, in order to resolve all the controversy that swirls around these products, and whatever is the meaning of the latest data disclosure,” Dr. Malone said in summation, “is for governments to just be open and transparent.”
Americans should demand a full examination of health effects — both beneficial and harmful — associated with these hastily created shots.
