Politics over science: Biden Admin signals intent to force FDA approval of COVID vaccines
Full approval opens a bigger mandate arsenal to feds.
The Biden Administration has signaled its next move as part of the White House’s full court press to pressure Americans into taking COVID-19 vaccines.
It seems the White House intends to strongarm the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) into fully approving COVID vaccines, while completely dismissing evolving safety and efficacy concerns in the process.
It began during a CNN town hall this week, when President Biden appeared to let it slip (in difficult to comprehend language) that he was pushing for full FDA approval before the end of the year.
Fully authorizing the COVID vaccines will allow for the government to hop over legal and regulatory hurdles that come from their current status under emergency use authorization. The Biden Administration seems to believe full approval will act as a mandate for further draconian, top down policies from the federal government, the likes of which may include vaccine passports and compulsory vaccination for much of public and private industry.
In an article earlier this week, state-corporate press organ NBC News attempted to tee up the case for vaccine mandates. Several Obama and Biden “health” officials went on the record for the piece to make it clear they wanted to make life as difficult as possible for “unvaccinated” Americans.
“The official regulatory sign off would remove a significant legal and public relations barrier for businesses and government agencies that want to require vaccinations for their employees and customers, former health officials from the Biden and the Obama administrations said,” the NBC article states.
Andy Slavitt, a former Biden Administration official who infamously advertised a mask that he claimed could “deactivate” the coronavirus, told NBC News:
“I think once the vaccines go through full FDA approval, everything should be on the table, and I think that everything will be on the table at the level of municipalities, states, employers, venues, government agencies.”
The FDA is not in fact an independent regulatory agency. It is simply another executive branch agency that falls under the umbrella of the Department of Health and Human Services. While the FDA is tasked with ensuring the safety of drugs that have prospects for the open market, the reality remains that politicians and pharmaceutical companies regularly steer and manipulate the FDA as they please.
The revolving door between Big Pharma and the Government Health is very much on display at the FDA today. Patrizia Cavazzoni, the FDA’s new top drug regulator, worked for two decades in Big Pharma (including a stint at Pfizer) before entering her government role in 2019. In fact, it is the norm, not an aberration, for Big Pharma executives to have a resume stuffed with Big Pharma consulting and employment gigs. Recent FDA chiefs, such as Pfizer board member Scott Gottlieb and Obama FDA chief Robert Califf, have resumes stuffed with examples of the constant revolving door between lobbying, government, and pharmaceutical companies.
The notion that mRNA vaccines have proven, *long term* safety and efficacy standards for the masses is simply not possible to prove at this time. Real world data (as opposed to Big Pharma studies) out of Israel, Malta, the UK, and elsewhere show that the vaccines have not exactly demonstrated much of an ability to prevent infection, contrary to the early claims made by pharmaceutical companies and Government Health institutions.
The bottom line: The White House is seeking to use the reputation of the FDA to force more Americans to take COVID vaccines, and they’ve made it clear that this is entirely about politics, and not science. The government agency that gave us the disaster that is the food pyramid is not an independent body, nor is it any kind of authority on science and health. The FDA is just another bureaucracy, with the primary interested parties being the White House and Big Pharma.
I listened to an interview by dr McCullough. It was an hour long. But he stated that the reason the variants are around is because of the vaccines!!! Also stated that once a vaccine hits a threshold of adverse effects that they stop using said vaccine. January 22 the MRNA vaccines hit that threshold. That threshold is around 150-180 deaths that would deem the vaccine as a liability. We are now in late July and according to VAERS there have been 11k dead with over 450k adverse effects reported. One important thing to remember about VAERS is that’s underreported by 10x. So you could actually guess that if it was reported 100% that there is well over 100k dead from the vax and 850k adverse effects from it. Educated guess. Still they want you to take it. It’s a money game at this point. Yet they want you to believe it’s them trying to keep you safe. The narrative has shifted once again. The narrative is “the pandemic of the unvaccinated”. It’s quite shameless. Good read Jordan. But make some plans on your next outlet. I don’t see substack lasting very long. Remember I told you to set up your podcast to podcasting 2.0 by Adam Curry. There are at least 20 apps that run it. Keep on the good fight my dude.
It's remarkable how many liberals find the idea of regulatory capture to be obvious in the financial regulatory agencies, but find it an outrageous notion when it comes to the FDA.
