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NDIA, February 10, 2021 (LifeSiteNews) – US-based COVID-19 vaccine maker Pfizer has withdrawn its application for emergency-use authorization of its product in India after the country’s health authorities demanded local safety testing.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

1. So you do not respond to the fact that there are 3 clinical phases of trial. They are approved under EUA after hearing at the FDA. So you are incorrect

2. Tuskagee airmen were NOT informed of what they were receiving. In the current clinical trials, there was extensive informed consent. In receiving the vaccine now authorized, people have informed consent. Your assertion that people are being used as guniea pigs is incorrect. over 200,000 people volunteered to be subjects with consent and knowledge. people are given informed consent on this vaccine. This is a far cry of what happened to the Tuskagee airmen. Do you deny this? Or will you just spin more untruths?

3. I can site all the statics I want — yes of Course, data is irrelevant to you.

What I asked you directly is do you agree that disease is caused by having sex with demons in your dreams. You cannot spin your way out, as you have not answered this question. Of course, this is the belief of the founders of American Frontline Doctors. Do you agree with this statement?

Please answer that question directly.

I have not been invited.

I was raised to be polite and not go around pushing my way onto ping lists unasked.

BTW "Take Shelter" was a great movie.

“US citizens will happily stand n line to be safety testers for your people.”

They already are doing exactly that.

NONE of the Covid-19 vaccines are FDA Approved.

They were only granted authorization for EXPERIMENTAL use or continued clinical trials.

BTW, The FDA EUA REPORT states that they have no clue of what the long term side effects will be.

Okay. Provide your full name, address, contact information, credentials, and place of employment.

I’ll send all that to my attorney, and then I will try a dose of the vaccine. If anything goes wrong, you’ll be the third to know.

That okay with you, “doctor”?

I'd feel safer catching the actual virus than receiving an experimental vaccine approved for “emergency use” only. And not recommended for children or pregnant women.

A juvenile threat to prove a point? Everyone who I treat has my full name and credentials and contact information.

I am not afraid of bullying as you have nothing to offer except threats. I have been threatened with doxing from some on this forum (they know who they are) and private messages that are both vile and threatening.

So, Mr. or Ms. Woody, can you actually try a cogent argument. Emotional arguments have no place in discourse. You are nothing more than a bully — and a poor one at that.

Oh, and you dont have to put my title in quote sarcastically. My medical license quite verifies that I am a practicing physician. However, again, thank you for the unnecessary bullying and nastiness.

Blessing to you on your evening.

I wonder who mines all of the canned/prepared responses that a handful of them come up with, so quickly.

It’s like teamwork!

Thank you. And US state laws protect you from forced EUA experimental vaccines, stand up for yourselves. I find it appalling that in the UK the govt is demanding 100% compliance for over 50s - just the age when comorbidities start in earnest in otherwise healthy people. The jab is not for their health, but is to exterminate them at any future point.

This is NHS govt socialized medicine womb to tomb, the govt controls your healthcare not you.

I threatened him with my coffee.
“I’ll give you my coffee if you don’t put me on your pinglist.”
Usually it’s “I will report you to admin mod if you don’t add me!”

Response~ I really am quite concerned about the obsession you seem to be suffering about having sex with demons in dreams. I don’t think I’m qualified to help you resolve those issues. But perhaps an 800 hotline # would help?

Yes, I think they’ve gotten it down to a science. They are on every platform that they can’t seem to get shut down yet.

That is good.

I will give you Darksheare's coffee if you don't put me on the ping list.

(I am CERTAINLY not going to give you mine. Coffee, my precious coffee. Mmmmm coffee. So yummy.)
