Everyone Else is Lying to You: My Book is Done!
The pandemic’s biggest disinformation superspreaders are now in charge. How did this happen?

The sequel to We Want Them Infected is done!
COVID killed 1.2 million Americans while vaccines saved millions.
Yet, disinformation superspreaders were empowered, where they are taking a wrecking ball to science & medicine.
How did that happen?🧵

If new proposals detailed in an FDA memo are put into place, experts told me it would mean the end of annual flu shots. And end of most vaccines for pregnant people. And maybe the end of updates to pneumonia vaccines. And more.

If they are telling the truth Prasad and the FDA are *currently* covering up evidence of a fatal drug reaction.
Absolutely unconscionable: Dr Prasad won't share details, data, evidence, or proof of causality. We just have Dr Tracy Beth Høeg's vibes - that's the assessment.
AND:
"FDA vaccine staff disagreed with the assessment that the reported deaths were caused by vaccines"

Details from an investigation by CBER Director Vinay Prasad into 10 alleged child deaths related to Covid-19 vaccines won't be coming soon, an FDA spokesperson told Endpoints News on Wednesday.

No one could say sabotage them more than themselves.
This is at once my personal nightmare and also a sign — their bench is *shallow.* They are not sophisticated shock troops, they’re a small group of podcasters and professional idiots who are tripping over their own feet in actual power. Should be relatively easy to sabotage them imho

The continued drama at the FDA is because that’s what these guys were good at.
Performances and drawing attention to themselves.
Putting on a show is what they know how to do.
I discussed that attitude here and should write a new version I guess.

After you read the Prasad memo, read this.
Covid-19 vaccines protect children from severe disease. Here is the evidence
“Over and over again, Covid-19 has shown it can cause severe disease in children, disease that is preventable by a safe and effective vaccine,” writes former CDC Director Rochelle Walensky.

By the way, none of Prasad’s defenders matter.
Prasad has totally lost the trust of the medical community for countless reasons.
Nothing they say in his defense can change that fix that.
It’s all out in the open now.

Also just...okay, for the sake of argument, let's say this evidence actually exists.
The logical outcome of that would be not to ban COVID vaccines, but to try to interpolate what commonalities those 10 kids have that made them vulnerable. Then slap a warning label on the shot. THAT'S IT.

So, let's play make-believe and pretend that Prasad has rock solid proof the vaccine killed 10 kids.
He is now sitting on it, refusing to give doctors on the ground the information they need to inform their patients.
The opposite of radical transparency.
