Dr. Robert Redfield, the former director of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said Thursday that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) pushed a false “safe and effective” COVID vaccine narrative by underreporting adverse events. The mRNA shots “never should have been mandated,” Redfield told the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee on Thursday.
The Democrat-controlled Senate oversight hearing entitled “Risky Research: Oversight of U.S. Taxpayer Funded High-Risk Virus Research,” included witnesses Dr. Gerald Parker, Dr. Carrie Wolinetz, Dr. Kevin Esvelt, and Redfield.
Former President Trump’s CDC director accused the Biden government of suppressing data about vaccine injuries in an effort to prevent vaccine hesitancy.
“There was not appropriate transparency from the beginning about the potential side effects of these vaccines, and I do think there were inappropriate decisions by some to try to underreport any side effects because they argued that would make the public less likely to get vaccinated” Redfield testified.
Redfield said the biggest mistake of all was the Biden regime’s decision to mandate the mRNA products.
“They never should have been mandated,” he said. “It should have been open to personal choice. They don’t prevent infection, they do have side effects.”
A growing number of doctors and scientists now say that the cost to society and the cost to the individual taking the COVID injection far outweighed any of the proposed benefits.
Senator Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) pointed out that Biden regime officials like Dr. Peter Marks, head of the FDA’s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, continue to deny that the injections are dangerous.
“They’re saying they [vaccine side effects] are rare and they’re mild,” Johnson said.
“The FDA should release all of the safety data they have,” Redfield replied. “I was very disappointed to hear that they’re planning to hold on to that [safety data] until 2026,” he continued. “That really creates a sense of a total lack of trust in our public health agencies toward vaccination. It’s counterproductive,” he added.
Johnson lamented that he has been unable to get Rep. Gary Peters (D-Wis.), the chairman of the the Senate Homeland Security Committee, to issue any subpoenas to the relevant health agencies to obtain the safety data.
“I would suggest you do that,” the Republican told Peters.
Johnson was poised to spearhead investigations into COVID vaccine malfeasance himself as Chair of the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations starting in 2023, but Republicans did not gain the majority in the 2022 midterm elections.
The Wisconsin senator said there’s “a lot more” being covered up than the COVID origin story.
“There are many aspects of our miserably failed response to COVID that needs to be uncovered, not the least of which, the sabotage of early treatment,” Johnson said. “The public has a right to know.”

Ah, “we lied to you for your good”.
Shoot this creep.
Folk ever hear of the Tuskegee symbolic trials/experiment this bit o stupidity reminds Mr of that
Lie to get the jabs out there—while CDC and FDA employees themselves were exempt from mandates.
I always had a suspicion that Redfield was not a fan of the way the Covid vax was pushed, especially based on his body language in press conferences.
But he was quickly (and early on) pushed to the background, and Fauci and Birx took center stage.
Informed consent requires at least accurate information. The public was denied this on purpose by the federal government.
I actually heard Mr Rate’s voice saying that as I read it.
Well done
EC
What about those that refused the vaccine and were fired? Where are they now
____________________________________________________________
Some employers did not do that but used financial extortion(higher employee “contribution” if one is not injected, amounting to THOUSANDS of $$$ per year).
Let’s just say, the employer doing the above ran off good people and the motivation of those that stayed went into the toilet.
“Firefighters and police officers in cities like Chicago and Los Angeles are also being given the ultimatum: get vaccinated or lose your job.” -cbs
Do these people have any recourse?
What we knew ping.
I was never “vaccine hesitant”.
I was always vaccine hostile.
It was obvious from day one that Big Pharma and government “regulators” were faking it hoping that someday they might make it.
I was never hesitant either.
Heck no!!!!!
“Whoopsie”
