From The Kim Iversen Show
Kansas Attorney General is suing Pfizer for misleading the public about the effectiveness of the covid-19 vaccine.
I'm surprised it's taken this long. Withholding information from patients is such a clear violation of informed consent that there's no way it's covered by manufacturer liability immunity.

I wonder if other states will follow suit. This is an interesting path. Curious to see how it plays out.

I'd be surprised if more states don't join the suit, at least. It sounds like part of this might be a specific agreement that Pfizer had made with Kansas, but most of the claims seem like they'd be relevant anywhere.

Texas, Oklahoma, and 2 others I can't remember right now (5 in total) are all in on this.
This is happening. 5 out of 50 is 10% of the country... Hard to ignore that kind of pressure. And surely more will jump onboard when the news of these 5 gets out.
Our problem is that mainstream news is something like 99% funded by big pharma these days... That's the very very very last news they'd report on for obvious reasons.
We need people like Elon and Rogan to relentlessly spam this out so that no one can miss it.

Truth be told, it is not surprising that they are dragging their feet on this just look at what happened with the legal battles surrounding Agent Orange and Teflon. They allowed half a century to pass us by before disclosing the malevolence.

I certainly wouldn't expect the Feds to have taken action, but I'm surprised it took this long for a red state prosecutor, since the vaccines are so politically charged.

Unfortunately, I'm 99% sure Trump gave the pharmaceutical companies blanket liability waivers for the vaccine:
"President Donald Trump reportedly wants to fast-track approval of an experimental coronavirus vaccine being developed in the UK so it can be used in the US before the presidential election.
In a bid to secure a coronavirus vaccine before November 3, Trump wants the US Food and Drug Administration to grant emergency use authorization to the vaccine being developed by Oxford University in the weeks leading up to the election, even if it does not yet have full regulatory approval, the Financial Times reports, citing unnamed sources."
"Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the US National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, has urged caution about Oxford's front-running status, however, reflecting the fact that most vaccines fail to receive regulatory approval.
"You've got to be careful if you're temporarily leading the way versus having a vaccine that's actually going to work," he told the BBC last month in comments reported by Bloomberg.
Fauci, the top US infectious-disease expert, also warned about the danger of fast-tracking a coronavirus vaccine after Russian President Vladimir Putin this month announced that Russia had approved a vaccine and hoped to begin mass production soon. Russia's vaccine has not completed its phase 3 trials, which are considered key in demonstrating the safety and efficacy of a vaccine and are usually completed before regulatory approval is given.
Fauci said while the US had numerous vaccines in development, "if we wanted to take the chance of hurting a lot of people or giving them something that doesn't work, we could start doing this, you know, next week if we wanted to — but that's not the way it works.""

The legal theory of this case is that those protections don't extend to deception on the part of the manufacturer.

How could the FDA overlook that? Nothing moves in the United States, in terms of medicines or food, that the FDA does not control, except of course the garbage sold at Walmart or any other store, that does not count. But interventions like vaccination, the F.D.A. was supposed to. In any case, the COVID virus continues to circulate, mutate and enjoy.
The pandemic brought good dividends for governments and businesses. So vaccines were another of the inventions for business. So don't worry if they are ineffective.

The largest donor to American politicians is the pharmaceutical industry and there's a substantial revolving door between them and the FDA.
