Kansas Attorney General Sues Pfizer Over COVID Vaccine
Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach has filed a lawsuit against Pfizer, accusing the company of misleading the public about the safety and efficacy of its COVID-19 vaccine. During a press conference in Topeka, Kobach alleged that Pfizer claimed its vaccine was “safe and effective” despite being aware of serious potential side effects such as myocarditis, pericarditis, failed pregnancies, and deaths. Furthermore, the lawsuit claims Pfizer knew the effectiveness of the vaccine waned over time and that it did not protect against COVID-19 variants, yet it withheld this information from the public. Kobach’s action makes him the second state attorney general to sue Pfizer over its COVID vaccine.
Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach has become the second state attorney general to sue the pharmaceutical company Pfizer over the COVID vaccine the company provided.
On Monday, Kobach announced the lawsuit at a press conference in Topeka.
“Pfizer made multiple misleading statements to deceive the public about its vaccine at a time when Americans needed the truth,” Kobach said.
The lawsuit states, “Pfizer misled the public that it had a ‘safe and effective’ COVID-19 vaccine. Pfizer said its COVID-19 vaccine was safe even though it knew its COVID-19 vaccine was connected to serious adverse events, including myocarditis and pericarditis, failed pregnancies, and deaths. Pfizer concealed this critical safety information from the public.”
Pfizer said its COVID-19 vaccine was effective even though it knew its COVID-19 vaccine waned over time and did not protect against COVID-19 variants,” the lawsuit continues. “Pfizer concealed this critical effectiveness information from the public. Pfizer said its COVID-19 vaccine would prevent transmission of COVID-19 even though it knew it never studied the effect of its vaccine on transmission of COVID-19. To keep the public from learning the truth, Pfizer worked to censor speech on social media that questioned Pfizer’s claims about its COVID-19 vaccine. … Pfizer must be held accountable for falsely representing the benefits of its COVID- 19 vaccine while concealing and suppressing the truth about its vaccine’s safety risks, waning effectiveness, and inability to prevent transmission.”
Pfizer released the following statement in response to the lawsuit:
We are proud to have developed the COVID-19 vaccine in record time in the midst of a global pandemic and saved countless lives. The representations made by Pfizer about its COVID-19 vaccine have been accurate and science-based. The Company believes that the state’s case has no merit and will respond to the suit in due course.
Pfizer is deeply committed to the well-being of the patients it serves and has no higher priority than ensuring the safety and effectiveness of its treatments and vaccines. Since its initial authorization by FDA in December 2020, the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine has been administered to more than 1.5 billion people, demonstrated a favorable safety profile in all age groups, and helped protect against severe COVID-19 outcomes, including hospitalization and death.
Patient safety is our number one priority, which is why we follow diligent safety and monitoring protocols.
Last November, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a lawsuit against Pfizer.
