No wonder no one trusts drug companies - or their regulators.

On Monday, Pfizer named Dr. Patrizia Cavazzoni as its executive vice president and chief medical officer, overseeing the company’s safety and regulatory teams globally.

Until Jan. 18, Cavazzoni had a different job - director of the Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. Effectively, she was the FDA’s top regulator.

I know what you’re thinking. Not the same Pfizer that made $100 billion selling mRNA Covid “vaccines” that failed in months and caused heart and autoimmune problems the FDA has ignored. Can’t be.

Why, yes, it can! Yep, for Pfizer, hiring Cavazzoni is money well spent. And it waited a whole month until after she quit her FDA job! Nothing to see here, folks.

Amazingly, this is not Cavazzoni’s first turn through the Pfizer/FDA revolving door. Before joining the FDA in 2018, she worked at Pfizer for eight years, overseeing clinical trials globally and holding other high-level posts.

At the time, lawsuits against Pfizer claimed Cavazzoni, who was trained as a psychiatrist, knew and hid the risks of Pfizer’s best-selling antidepressant Zoloft.

A decade earlier, when she worked at the Indiana-based drug maker Eli Lilly, Cavazzoni faced similar allegations. Lilly is now best-known for the diabetes and weight-loss drugs Mounjaro and Zepbound.
