COVID vaccine safety. Trust the (hidden) science

Several months ago “the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the first COVID-19 vaccine [Pfizer-BioNTech]”, with COVID vaccines having already been made available to the public via Emergency Use Authorizations. Source. This “full approval” paved the way for vaccine mandates. Source.

Reuters now reports “Freedom of Information Act requests are rarely speedy, but when a group of scientists asked the federal government to share the data it relied upon in licensing Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine, the response went beyond typical bureaucratic foot-dragging. As in 55 years beyond. That’s how long the Food & Drug Administration in court papers this week proposes it should be given to review and release the trove of vaccine-related documents responsive to the request. If a federal judge in Texas agrees, plaintiffs Public Health and Medical Professionals for Transparency can expect to see the full record in 2076.” Perhaps realising the issue in people being expected to ‘trust the science’ when ‘the science’ is kept confidential for decades to come the plaintiffs said “that releasing the information could help reassure vaccine skeptics” about safety and efficacy. Source.

Okay then.
