Will There be Covid Justice? By Chris Knight (Florida)
Things are certainly moving along on the road to Covid justice. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton plans to investigate whether Big Pharma misrepresented the efficacy and safety of the Covid vaccines and manipulated vaccine trial data, and whether gain-of function research was engaged in. According to a statement tissued by the Texas Attorney General: “The catastrophic effects of the pandemic and subsequent interventions forced on our country and citizens deserve intense scrutiny, and we are pursuing any hint of wrongdoing to the fullest,” Paxton said in a statement. “This pandemic was a deeply challenging time for Americans. If any company illegally took advantage of consumers during this period or compromised people’s safety to increase their profits, they will be held responsible. “If public health policy was developed on the basis of flawed or misleading research, the public must know.”
Texas now joins out beautiful state of Florida in investigating the perils of the Covid Vaxxes.
“It’s sickening how much Big Pharma bosses have profited from the COVID-19 pandemic, after overselling billions of people around the world on the wondrous qualities of their vaccines.
Moderna Chief Executive Stéphane Bancel made nearly $400 million last year on his stock options and still owns a reported $2.8 billion of shares in the company plus his salary and perks.
His Pfizer counterpart, Albert Bourla, pocketed a $33 million salary last year, on top of the millions in Pfizer shares he sold.
But before they ride off into the sunset to count their filthy lucre, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton plans to investigate whether their companies misrepresented the efficacy and safety of the vaccines and manipulated vaccine trial data.
On Monday, Paxton will launch an investigation into potential violations of his state’s Deceptive Trade Practices Act by Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson, he has revealed exclusively in The Post.
He also wants to know whether the pharmaceutical giants engaged in gain-of-function research and misled the public about it.
Immune . . . to laws
The Texas investigation could have widespread implications for the legal immunity granted to manufacturers of the COVID-19 vaccines and open the door to class action lawsuits from people injured by the mRNA jabs, amid reports of rare but serious adverse effects.
“The catastrophic effects of the pandemic and subsequent interventions forced on our country and citizens deserve intense scrutiny, and we are pursuing any hint of wrongdoing to the fullest,” Paxton said in a statement.
“This pandemic was a deeply challenging time for Americans. If any company illegally took advantage of consumers during this period or compromised people’s safety to increase their profits, they will be held responsible.
“If public health policy was developed on the basis of flawed or misleading research, the public must know.”
He says Big Pharma had a “vested interest” in the success of their COVID-19 vaccines because of the record profits they drove.
“This vested interest . . . combined with reports about the alarming side effects of vaccines, demands aggressive investigation.”
The existence of federal vaccine mandates “means this investigation into the scientific and ethical basis on which public health decisions were made is of major significance.”
Paxton will demand the companies hand over documents relating to the “decision-making behind pandemic interventions forced on the public, especially when a profit motive or political pressure may have compromised Americans’ health and safety.”
Checking Big Pharma
The Texas investigation comes on the heels of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ call for a grand jury investigation into “crimes and wrongdoing committed against Floridians related to the COVID-19 vaccine.”
DeSantis has appointed independent experts such as Stanford University professor Jay Bhattacharya to a new Public Health Integrity Committee to examine “adverse events from mRNA vaccines.”
“The Biden administration and pharmaceutical corporations continue to push widespread distribution of mRNA vaccines on the public, including children as young as 6 months old, through relentless propaganda while ignoring real-life adverse events,” DeSantis office said in a statement in December.
“These risks include coagulation disorders, acute cardiac injuries, Bell’s palsy, encephalitis, appendicitis, and shingles.”
DeSantis and his state Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo maintain that, while the vaccines were effective in protecting older and vulnerable people, risks for younger people may have outweighed the benefits.
Meanwhile, author Alex Berenson last week sued President Biden, other federal officials and Pfizer bigwigs — including $33 million dollar boss Bourla and board member Scott Gottlieb — for “conspiring to violate my Constitutional rights.”
