Pfizer’s CEO was hammered by a British regulator for making “disgracefully misleading” claims about the Covid mRNA shots also known as “Covid vaccines.”
UK’s pharmaceutical watchdog, the Prescription Medicines Code of Practice Authority (PMCPA), found that Dr. Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, made “misleading” statements about healthy children purportedly benefiting from the vaccines.
In an interview with the BBC last December, Bourla claimed that “there is no doubt in my mind that the benefits, completely, are in favour of” vaccinating children ages five to 11 against Covid-19.
Bourla argued that “Covid in schools is thriving,” adding: “This is disturbing, significantly, the educational system, and there are kids that will have severe symptoms.”
After the interview was published on December 2, prior to the approval of the vaccine for the age group in question, UsForThem, a parent watchdog group defending children’s rights throughout the Covid pandemic, submitted a complaint to the Prescription Medicines Code of Practice Authority (PMCPA).
The complaint substantiated that Dr. Bourla made “disgracefully misleading” remarks about the Covid shots that were “extremely promotional in nature.” The complaint argued that his remarks breached multiple clauses of the Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry’s (ABPI) code of practice.
“There is simply no evidence that healthy schoolchildren in the UK are at significant risk from the SARS COV-2 virus and to imply that they are is disgracefully misleading,” the group said.Pfizer appealed the drug regulator’s findings by arguing its claims were based on “up-to-date scientific evidence” that could be substantiated by the “publicly available independent benefit-risk assessments”.The pharmaceutical watchdog upheld that Dr. Bourla committed several ethical breaches, including having misled the public, made unsubstantiated claims, and showed a lack of balance.PMCPA said the full case report on Pfizer’s ethical misconduct will be published in the coming weeks.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
