1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,200 Pfizer marketed its vaccine as safe for pregnant women. However, in February of 2 00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:11,940 2021, Pfizer possessed reports for 458 pregnant women who received Pfizer's 3 00:00:11,940 --> 00:00:16,480 COVID-19 vaccine during pregnancy. More than half of the pregnant women 4 00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:22,480 reported an adverse event and more than 10% reported a miscarriage, many 5 00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:27,160 within days of the vaccination. Pfizer also possessed information from its own 6 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:33,920 October 2020 study on pregnancy in rats, indicating that its COVID-19 vaccine 7 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:39,240 was likely linked to infertility, loss of litters, and stillborn offspring. 8 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:45,320 Number two, safety relating to heart conditions like myocarditis. 9 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:49,000 Pfizer consistently denied any evidence of a connection or safety signal 10 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:55,600 between its COVID-19 vaccine and myocarditis or pericarditis. Indeed, 11 00:00:55,640 --> 00:01:00,340 on January 18th, 2023, when asked whether its vaccine caused strokes or 12 00:01:00,340 --> 00:01:05,720 myocarditis, Pfizer chairman and CEO Alan Burla stated, quote, we've not seen 13 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:10,440 a single signal, although we have distributed billions of doses, end 14 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:14,760 quote, a signal that he was referring to as a safety signal, which refers to a 15 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:18,840 negative consequence. However, as Pfizer knew the United States government, the 16 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:22,320 United States military, foreign governments and others had found that 17 00:01:22,320 --> 00:01:26,640 Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine caused myocarditis and pericarditis. 18 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,480 Number three, effectiveness regarding variant variants. 19 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:34,680 Pfizer also claimed that its COVID-19 vaccine protected against COVID-19 20 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:39,560 variants, even though data available at the time showed Pfizer's vaccine was 21 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:44,160 effective less than half the time against variants. Finally, transmission. 22 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:49,080 Pfizer urged Americans to get vaccinated in order to protect their loved ones, 23 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:53,920 clearly indicating a claim that Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccination stopped 24 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:55,320 transmission of COVID-19. 25 00:01:56,040 --> 00:02:02,240 Pfizer later admitted that it had never even studied transmission of it after 26 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:06,240 its recipients received the vaccine and whether they could say it stopped 27 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:06,800 transmission. 28 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:14,800 After making these misleading statements, Pfizer also engaged in some censorship 29 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:18,800 attempts. Emails revealed that Pfizer officials coordinated with social media 30 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:23,720 platforms to censor any speech critical of Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine safety and 31 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:24,440 effectiveness. 32 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,920 It should also be noted that Pfizer elected not to join the federal 33 00:02:28,920 --> 00:02:33,440 government's vaccine development program known as Operation Warp Speed and 34 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,400 declined that development funding. 35 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:40,560 When asked about that, Pfizer's CEO Albert Burla said Pfizer did not 36 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:44,880 participation in the program in order to quote, liberate and quote, Pfizer's 37 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:49,000 scientists and to avoid government oversight of its vaccine development. 38 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,120 He also said, quote, they want reports. 39 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,040 I don't want to have any of that. 40 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:55,320 End quote. 41 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,640 Referring to they, when he said they, he was referring to the federal government. 42 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,560 Pfizer's misleading statements contributed to success in marketing its 43 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:03,600 vaccine in Kansas. 44 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:10,400 By February of 2024, Pfizer had delivered over 3.3 million doses of its vaccine in 45 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:11,400 the state of Kansas. 46 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:17,480 This is this accounted for over 60% of all vaccine doses given in the state of 47 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:18,080 Kansas. 48 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:20,240 The suit is being filed today. 49 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:25,960 And as I mentioned before, it is part of a multi-state effort in which more suits 50 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,120 may follow, depending on Pfizer's reaction.
