Members of Congress Send Letter of Demand to FDA Commissioner Re Covid Vax Injuries By Dr Abigail Knight (Florida)
Three members of US Congress have sent a letter of demand to the FDA demanding full compliance with laws associated with the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting (VAERS) data and the Covid-19 vaccines. VAERS has an under-reporting factor of between 41 and 100. However, given that, 1.4 million reports of adverse events after the administration of the Covid-19 vaccines has been recorded. The letter is reproduced by Trial Sitenes.com, and the demand is for the FDA to do what it is supposed to do, and investigate these injuries. Good luck with that, given the power and influence of Big Pharma.
“TrialSite contributor Mary Beth Pfeiffer recently joined a group of COVID-19 vaccine injury advocates as they visited the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and dozens of politicians from both parties over a three-day period in Washington, DC. That firsthand account can be read here. It would appear that at least some survival-minded people in Washington are starting to wake up to the fact that there are hundreds of thousands, if not over a million, vaccine injured from the mass vaccination scheme in response to the pandemic. Now more politicians are getting into the action; just last week, Greg Steube, a Republican U.S. Representative from Florida, wrote and sent a letter to FDA Commissioner Robert M. Califf demanding full compliance with laws associated with the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting (VAERS) data and the COVID-19 vaccines. This letter was cosigned by two members of Congress, including Rep. Michael Cloud (R-Texas) and Rep. Tom Tiffany (R-Wis.)
An early warning database was introduced to pick up on safety signals once a vaccine is authorized and/or formally approved by the FDA. While there is not an absolute correlation between adverse events self-reported (often by physicians or other providers), the database is there for reporting that has led to a staggering 1.4 million reports of adverse events after the administration of the COVID-19 vaccines.
The Congress members state on no uncertain terms that FDA scientists have an obligation to investigate the surge of reported cases. Are there in fact temporal links between the COVID-19 vaccines and VAERS reported adverse events.
In the letter Rep. Steube declares:
“Since the COVID-19 vaccine received an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA), VAERS has received over 1.4 million reports of adverse events following the administration of the vaccine.” He continued: “If an adverse reaction to a vaccine is identified through VAERS, scientists at the FDA should perform further tests to determine if the vaccine presents an actual risk to public health.”
TrialSite republishes Rep. Steube’s letter below as well as offers a link to the letter.
Calling the FDA—Investigate the Vaccine Injured
The Honorable Robert M. Califf Commissioner U.S. Food and Drug Administration 10903 New Hampshire Avenue Silver Spring, MD 20993
Dear Commissioner Califf:
We write concerned about the reports that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is refusing to provide records and analyses from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), which your agency is obligated to disclose under 5 U.S.C. § 552(a)(3).1
As you know, VAERS is the early warning database that monitors the safety of vaccines after they are authorized for use by the FDA. Since the COVID-19 vaccine received an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA), VAERS has received over 1.4 million reports of adverse events following the administration of the vaccine. If an adverse reaction to a vaccine is identified through VAERS, scientists at the FDA should perform further tests to determine if the vaccine presents an actual risk to public health.
The database has helped researchers establish that those who receive the COVID-19 vaccine may be at a higher risk for developing the following conditions:
Anaphylaxis, which is a severe and potentially life-threatening allergic reaction, from the first Pfizer/BioNTech vaccinations
Thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome (TTS) after Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen Biotech COVID-19 vaccination
Myocarditis (inflammation of heart muscle) or pericarditis (inflammation of the outer lining of the heart) after COVID-19 vaccination
Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) after Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen Biotech COVID-19 vaccination
VAERS has received over 30,700 reports of death among recipients of the COVID-19 vaccine, although no causal link between the vaccine and death has been determined
Additionally, the system has been able to identify populations that may experience a more severe adverse event after receiving the vaccine based on their medical history.
Ever since the first COVID-19 vaccine received an EUA, the FDA has been noncompliant in releasing relevant data regarding the safety of the vaccine. In 2021, a group of medical researchers sued the FDA, stating the agency denied a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to expedite the release of Pfizer-BioNTech's COVID-19 vaccine review documents. In response to the lawsuit, the FDA proposed releasing around 500 pages of the review documents each month, which would fulfill the organization's FOIA request in around 55 to 75 years. In January 2022, a federal judge ordered the FDA to release at least 55,000 pages of material every month. However, the FDA is still refusing to release their analyses of VAERS data following a FOIA request for the records.
The information contained within a VAERS report could be lifesaving. It is unacceptable that the FDA would withhold such important material from the public eye. Americans depend on the information provided in VAERS to be able to make conscious decisions about their health and well-being. It is critical that the FDA be transparent and release important sets of data to the public. We look forward to receiving your response within 30 days. Sincerely..
Again, the letter is signed by the following:
