Pfizer bails out of India after country demands safety testing for COVID vaccine

Pfizer bails out of India after country demands safety testing for COVID vaccine

American’s Frontline Doctors are urging the Biden administration to take note of India’s decision to deny Pfizer’s application based on a lack of safety.

NDIA, February 10, 2021 (LifeSiteNews) – US-based COVID-19 vaccine maker Pfizer has withdrawn its application for emergency-use authorization of its product in India after the country’s health authorities demanded local safety testing.

India’s drug regulator last weekdeclined Pfizer’s request that its experimental COVID-19 mRNA vaccine “BioNTech” (BNT162b) be approved without a local trial of the product’s safety on the country’s population.

The country’s Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation formed a Subject Expert Committee that met on Feb. 3 to discuss Pfizer’s proposal for the emergency use authorization of its COVID-19 experimental vaccine.

“The committee noted that incidents of palsy, anaphylaxis and other SAE’s have been reported during post marketing and the causality of the events with the vaccine is being investigated,” the committee reported.

“Further, the firm [Pfizer] has not proposed any plan to generate safety and immunogenicity data in Indian population. After detailed deliberation, the committee has not recommended for grant of permission for emergency use in the country at this stage,” the committee added.

Pfizer in turn withdrew its application.

“Based on the deliberations at the meeting and our understanding of additional information that the regulator may need, the company has decided to withdraw its application at this time,” the company stated, as reported by Reuters.

“Pfizer will continue to engage with the authority and re-submit its approval request with additional information as it becomes available in the near future.”

India’s concerns about the safety of Pfizer’s mRNA gene-altering technology are not misplaced.

Data from the US-based National Vaccine Information Center shows that as of Jan. 29, there have been 501 deaths — a subset of 11,249 total adverse events — following COVID-19 vaccinations. Pfizer’s vaccine was taken by 59 percent of those who died while Moderna’s vaccine was taken by 41 percent.

The Norwegian Medicines Agency reported on Jan. 14 that twenty-three people died within days of receiving the first dose of Pfizer’s product.

California officials are investigating the Jan. 7 death of a 60-year-old healthcare worker who died four days after receiving his second injection of Pfizer’s product. A reportedly “perfectly healthy” 56-year-old Miami obstetrician died 16 days after receiving the Pfizer shot. State along with federal officials are investigating the Jan. 30 death of a 58-year-old Virginia woman who died hours after receiving the first dose of Pfizer’s vaccine.

America’s Frontline Doctors are urging the Biden administration to take note of India’s decision to deny Pfizer’s application based on a lack of safety.

“President Biden and his COVID-19 task force need to immediately and clearly explain to the American people why the Pfizer-BioNTech experimental vaccine is safe for Americans despite Indian drug regulators denying its emergency use based on concerns about potential side effects, immunogenicity, and other data,” the doctors’ group stated.

“The burden of proof should fall on the Biden White House to provide Americans with greater transparency and information so that they can make informed decisions about their own healthcare. Science should guide this administration’s COVID response plan not public relations, polls, and politics.”

While India has rejected Pfizer’s vaccine, it has approved the use of Oxford University’s AstraZeneca vaccine and another one developed on home soil by Bharat Biotech with the Indian Council of Medical Research, reports Reuters.

“Words mean exactly what they say, no matter how many twists people put into them.”


Yes they do. You might want to forward your concerns to dr. Fauci

A typical red herring argument to deflect from the echo chamber found on an article with widely disproven and sunned physician groups.

I have written a thousand times I think Fauci is a Fraud, could you let me know what the point of this rejoinder is?

Please note that the founders of American Front Line Doctors believe, among other things

1. Some diseases are caused by women dreaming of having sex with demons or spiritual beings

2. Disease is caused by the sins of the person who is sick

3. Multiple Professional Societies have disavowed this group. Which, incidentally, has claimed support of the same societies.

Not a great group to base argument on.

I was making a comparison. Both are Fourth World cesspools with 300 million 80 year olds.

“Not a great group to base argument on.”


Translation:

Not credible because they have a differing opinion than the status quo. So set out to discredit them or do like the rest of your klan does, simply censor them so they have no platform for debate. Afterall its what the communist party in china does and it works great there right?

What’s your problem with 80 year-olds?

Are they expendable? Why not forcibly euthanize them instead?

Exactly. If their product were worthy of defense, one would think they would welcome the opportunity.

But rather then defend the indefensible, they send minions to deceive and deflect. And if that fails they slander the messengers or censor like china does. I wonder what they want to keep the American people from discovering?

Could be because there is no real judicial system in India

I don’t understand. The medical professional on FR say the vaccines are safe and you should take them.

Gates and Fauci presented their mRNA-1273 Modera vaccine that is being used today as the Covid-19 vaccine at the Gates’ Foundation’s “Event 201” back in Oct. 2019 before anyone here ever heard of covid. Which came first? The vaccine or the virus.

Yes, it was discussed on threads back in March and April on FR. Yes, it and Fauci have been scrubbed off the “Event 201” site.


Interesting. Check out this video beginning at the 22:30 mark.

Incorrect, as usual. Over the top accusations and pejoratives to deflect from the fact that the founders of this group believe:

1. Gynecological disease is caused by women having sex with demons in their dreams (do you believe that this is credible, it appears you are defending them)

2. Klan is a pejorative to conjure up racism, apparently you intent?

3. You choose not to address that the majority of physicians have distanced themselves from this fringe group.

I am not suggesting censorship (another grow mischaracterization) but brining to light that which the group you wish for us to take as gospel truth espouses.

Would you like to answer on point, or shall I simply prepare for more meaningless insults that are nothing more than full or sound and fury signifying a lack of a rational argument?
