Texas AG sues Pfizer for COVID vaccine
Republican Texas Attorney General Files Lawsuit Against Pfizer for Misrepresenting COVID-19 Vaccine
In a bold move, Republican Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has taken legal action against Pfizer, accusing the pharmaceutical giant of deceiving the public and engaging in a conspiracy to silence critics of its COVID-19 vaccine.
The lawsuit alleges that Pfizer misled the public by falsely claiming that its vaccine was 95 percent effective. Furthermore, it accuses the company of making misleading statements about the vaccine’s duration of protection, its ability to prevent transmission, and its effectiveness against variants.
According to the lawsuit, Pfizer went even further by pressuring social media platforms to censor prominent individuals who dared to speak out against the vaccine. Former FDA Commissioner Brett Giroir and journalist Alex Berenson were among those targeted in what the lawsuit describes as a deliberate “censorship campaign” aimed at suppressing content that could harm Pfizer’s sales.
“Pfizer intentionally misrepresented the efficacy of its COVID-19 vaccine and censored individuals who threatened to reveal the truth, all in order to expedite the adoption of the product and maximize its commercial success,” the complaint alleges.
The complaint also highlights government reports indicating that in some areas, a higher percentage of vaccinated individuals were dying from COVID-19 compared to the unvaccinated by 2021.
“We are seeking justice for the people of Texas, many of whom were coerced into taking a flawed product through tyrannical vaccine mandates based on lies,” stated Paxton. “The evidence is clear: Pfizer did not tell the truth about their COVID-19 vaccines.”
Paxton further criticized the Biden Administration for exploiting the pandemic to impose unlawful public health measures and enrich pharmaceutical companies. He vowed to utilize all available resources to protect Texas citizens who were misled and harmed by Pfizer’s actions.
