Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach announced Monday he is suing pharmaceutical giant Pfizer for misleading Kansas residents about the safety and efficacy of its COVID-19 vaccine.
During a press conference in Topeka, alongside Deputy Attorney General Fran Oleen and Assistant Attorneys General Kaley Schrader and Melanie Jack, Kobach detailed the allegations lodged against Pfizer.
“Pfizer made multiple misleading statements to deceive the public about its vaccine at a time when Americans needed the truth,” said Kobach.
The complaint, lodged today in Thomas County District Court, accuses Pfizer of misleading Kansans about the vaccines’ risks, including potential harm to pregnant women and the risk of myocarditis. The suit further alleges that Pfizer falsely claimed its vaccine was effective against COVID variants, despite evidence to the contrary.
Pfizer is also accused of suggesting its vaccine prevented COVID-19 transmission despite admitting it had not studied whether its vaccine halted transmission.

The State of Kansas outlines several specific allegations in its lawsuit:
1. Pfizer misled the public that it had a “safe and effective” COVID-19 vaccine.
2. 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.
3. Pfizer said its COVID-19 vaccine was effective even though it knew its COVID19 vaccine waned over time and did not protect against COVID-19 variants. Pfizer concealed this critical effectiveness information from the public.
4. 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.
5. 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.
6. Pfizer’s misrepresentations of a “safe and effective” vaccine resulted in record company revenue of approximately $75 billion from COVID-19 vaccine sales in just two years.
7. Pfizer’s actions and statements relating to its COVID-19 vaccine violated previous consent judgments with the State of Kansas.
8. Pfizer’s actions and statements relating to its COVID-19 vaccine violated the Kansas Consumer Protection Act, K.S.A. 50-623 et seq., regardless of whether any individual consumer ultimately received Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine.
9. Pfizer must be held accountable for falsely representing the benefits of its COVID19 vaccine while concealing and suppressing the truth about its vaccine’s safety risks, waning effectiveness, and inability to prevent transmission.
All the steaks are safe and effective.
No, the PREP Act was signed into law by George W. Bush in 2005. Trump had nothing to do with it.
I guess we’ll have to resort to vigilante justice then.
Nope.
It doesn’t protect the drug companies from “willful misconduct.”

That goes out the window when you commit fraud
they tried like hell to keep Kris Kobach from attaining office...he’s one of the few good ones
Fraud invalidates the immunity.
“ Good luck. I believe under the emergency mandate to develop this they were given immunity from these suits.”
Yes. That’s the point I was going to make and see you’ve made it. At the same time, though, it does depend on what they did say, did they say things beyond emergency use authorization guidelines.
If they ever said it is safe and effective they were violating the law because that cannot be stated if it is not approved.
I’d say the other targets of lawsuits should be entities that mandated people get the shot when it was not approved.
What they did was worse than Pfizer (with above caveats).
Yea well, they were given immunity under the espouses that they didn’t know if their “vaccine” would cause injury.
But it is clear that they did. And just like the lawsuits against “big tobacco” they covered up the vaccine side effects.
"Take the clot shot or you kill grandma."
"Take the clot shot or you get fired from your job."
"Take the clot shot or we won't let you into the Green Day concert."
All those who pushed these clot shots need to be sued into oblivion. They are all disgusting and evil people.
Not so when they can prove FRAUD. That’s why they wanted to hide the documents for 75 years.
Like they say about stand up comedy: Timing is everything.

Criminal RICO charges need to be filed if Kansas has such a statute.
I don't think you can immunize against fraud.
For 25 years!
Kansas Sues Pfizer, Says Company ‘Misled’ Public on COVID-19 Vaccine!:
Lawsuit is seeking damages and a declaration that Pfizer violated agreements with the state.
Kansas on June 17 sued Pfizer, alleging the pharmaceutical giant “misled” members of the public with various claims about its COVID-19 vaccine.
Pfizer, for instance, said on April 1, 2021, that there were “no serious safety concerns through up to six months following second dose” of the vaccine it makes with Germany’s BioNTech, the lawsuit notes.
But documents made public through a lawsuit showed that Pfizer’s adverse events database, which includes reported issues following vaccination from around the world, already contained 158,893 adverse events as of Feb. 28, 2021.
Australia’s ‘Covid Honour Roll’ is Absurd!
REBEKAH BARNETT JUNE 19, 2024
In Australia, you can preside over human rights abuses, you can authorise police violence on citizens, you can blow millions-to-billions on cancelled infrastructure projects, and you can name-call from the bully pulpit…and we’ll give you an award for it.
