Pfizer’s response. Pretty clear from their lengthy explanation, rather than denial, that the guy is who PV said he was. Or maybe Pfizer is in on the conspiracy too. But keep denying the obvious.

[quote]

In the ongoing development of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, Pfizer has not conducted gain of function or directed evolution research. Working with collaborators, we have conducted research where the original SARS-CoV-2 virus has been used to express the spike protein from new variants of concern. This work is undertaken once a new variant of concern has been identified by public health authorities. This research provides a way for us to rapidly assess the ability of an existing vaccine to induce antibodies that neutralize a newly identified variant of concern. We then make this data available through peer reviewed scientific journals and use it as one of the steps to determine whether a vaccine update is required.

In addition, to meet U.S. and global regulatory requirements for our oral treatment, PAXLOVID™, Pfizer undertakes in vitro work (e.g., in a laboratory culture dish) to identify potential resistance mutations to nirmatrelvir, one of PAXLOVID’s two components. With a naturally evolving virus, it is important to routinely assess the activity of an antiviral. Most of this work is conducted using computer simulations or mutations of the main protease–a non-infectious part of the virus. In a limited number of cases when a full virus does not contain any known gain of function mutations, such virus may be engineered to enable the assessment of antiviral activity in cells. In addition, in vitro resistance selection experiments are undertaken in cells incubated with SARS-CoV-2 and nirmatrelvir in our secure Biosafety level 3 (BSL3) laboratory to assess whether the main protease can mutate to yield resistant strains of the virus. It is important to note that these studies are required by U.S. and global regulators for all antiviral products and are carried out by many companies and academic institutions in the U.S. and around the world.[/quote]

The only one denying anything is you. I never claimed he wasn’t who he said he was. What he said isn’t the bombshell it’s being made to be.

Wow, some people actually put faith in project veritas? 🤣

Obviously never happened in your alternate universe.

Aren't you due for a booster in yours? 🤣

Remember that overturned semi that had all of those monkeys running around in PA?

"Don’t tell anyone. Promise you won’t tell anyone. The way it [the experiment] would work is that we put the virus in monkeys, and we successively cause them to keep infecting each other, and we collect serial samples from them.”

It's actually 55 years but only took 108 days to approve the Pfizer vaccine.

The answer is right there in the article. You guys can't champion capitalism and small government in one breath, and then want to cut the legs out from private companies in the next breath by using the power of government to force them to hand over massive amounts of data that contains PII and sensitive IP.

"The FDA did not request a delay in the release of its COVID-19 data until 2076. The FDA responded to a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request for more than 300,000 pages of data related to the licensure of Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine by proposing a processing schedule that would see the release of 500 pages every month. While the FDA argues that this is a rather standard processing schedule, if adhered to it would take the FDA more than 50 years, or until 2076, to completely fulfill.“

What are you trying to say? 

In 2019, for example, U.S. District Judge Paul Englemayer ordered the U.S. Departments of State and Defense to produce 5,000 pages per month to fulfill an FOIA request related to the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi:

 

Either way a judge found they must release 55k pages a month

What I’m trying to say is that the claim in the tweet that was posted is not accurate.

The content and amount of necessary redactions matters. These situations are apples and oranges. The pages related to the Khashoggi murder, didn't have tons of PII or IP.

The DOD has 700,000 civilian personnel, the FDA has 15,000.

Yep exactly. But simple minds like lynched would prefer to take tweets from TaraBull at face value rather than spend the 5 minutes it takes to get real answers from reputable sources.

This...

Republicans: Medicare negotiating lower drug prices = socialism. Importing drugs from Canada... also socialism. If we don't let big Pharma charge $2,000 for an epi pen (because that money goes to research and development), then we get the socialism.

Also republicans: Big pharma is evil and part of the nWo cabal, that's why we should treat cancer with horse pills!

Republicans have turned into weird new age hippies since Covid.  My wife's wack job Trumpbot Aunt is always telling her about holistic medicine and natural remedies these days like she's never heard of them.  B**ch, you're talking to the wrong woman.  My wife was covering herself in crystals and essential oils when you were screaming about socialism and praising the war in Iraq.

There's some documentary series on netflix where one of the episodes was on essential oils and how unregulated and dangerous they can be. There was this one woman who was ingesting them and rubbing them all over her skin until she broke out in a wicked rash that made her look like Freddy Kruger. She said she only got to that point because the initial rashes were making her itchy, so she turned to her essential oil facebook groups for advice where they promptly told her to switch to a different type of oil and triple the dose. I couldn't help but burst out laughing, which then attracts the attention from my wife in the other room who sees me belly laughing at a woman who looks like a burn victim and suddenly I look like a psychopath.
