Texas v. Pfizer: The COVID-19 Vaccines are the Miracle that Wasn't
UncoverDC ^ | 12/4/23 | Tracy Beanz

Posted on 12/04/2023 6:04:40 PM PST by CFW

Attorney General of Texas, Ken Paxton, filed a whopper of a lawsuit against Pfizer. You will need your thinking caps for it. The petition can be found here. You will likely remember the constant drumbeat that the Pfizer mRNA shots were "95% effective." The filing starts, "The COVID-19 vaccines are the miracle that wasn't."

1. More Americans died in 2021 with the vaccine available than in 2020—with the vaccine available and the majority of Americans taking Pfizer's.

2. By the end of 2021, in some places, a greater percentage of the vaccinated were dying from COVID-19 than the unvaccinated. As per the filing, the Pfizer shot was plainly not "95% effective. The suit gets into the why and how shortly.

[court filing document embedded here]

So, how did the shot achieve such widespread adoption yet fall short of the stated goal of ending the pandemic? Pfizer lied. They only told the public it was 95% effective based on the relative risk reduction for vaccinated individuals in their not yet completed study. The FDA agrees that relative risk isn't the proper way to present risk, stating: “...when information is presented in a relative risk format, the risk reduction seems large and treatments are viewed more favorably than when the same information is presented” using more accurate metrics."

Tracy Beanz break downs the Texas v. Pfizer case and gives a pretty good dissection of the issues in question. It is definitely worth a read. Excerpts of court documents are included in her article and there are links to the documents themselves should you wish to read the complete court filings.

Pfizer failed to rise to the challenge.

What’s he doing on the illegal alien outpost, 60 miles north of Houston? Any movement on that?

I didn't know Pfizer was in the College Football Playoffs!

Would probably have more immunity than Alabama if they were!

“Would probably have more immunity than Alabama if they were!”


After watching the GA v Alabama game on Saturday, and given the referees’ sudden blindness when obvious holding should have been called against that team several times, I don’t think anyone can have more immunity than Alabama. Someone really really really wanted them in the play-off games. The other teams may not have a chance if they have to play against both the opposing team and the refs such as the Dawgs did on Saturday.

This is, as far as I can tell, Ken Paxton playing political games.

No vaccine is 100% effective in all recipients. The scientific community knows this.

Pfizer (and the other vaccine manufacturers) all said that their vaccines were effective at preventing serious disease and death.

Professional antivaxxers tell people that if vaccines are not 100% effective at preventing disease, they aren’t “real” vaccines. This is not a scientific statement. No vaccine expert, ever, said that vaccines prevent 100% of disease.

The increase in Covid deaths in 2021 was because the Biden administration dropped the social distancing, mask, and other mandates before a majority of the population was vaccinated. Available vaccines were prioritized to the most vulnerable groups and people in certain professions, such as health care workers. The rest of us had to wait. And even when everyone was allowed to get vaccinated, there were not enough supplies to go around. So, it took a while.

In 2020, there were 350,831 deaths from Covid. In 2021, there were 416,893 deaths and in 2022, there were 244,986 deaths. In the last year, according to my personal spreadsheet (where I have been recording death and case data since early 2020), there have been 78,615 Covid deaths. The majority of the population has been vaccinated, and deaths have dropped as a result.

I guess the “stated goal” of ending the pandemic is another professional antivaxxer straw man. No vaccine producer ever made that claim.

The refs allowed so much that directly impacted the game. I’m convinced Alabama was favored by Vegas to get in.

The mRNA vaccines were 95% effective against Pfizer and Moderna losing money. That’s about it.

No vaccine is 100% effective, but the purpose of a vaccine is to prevent spread. It was not a vaccine because it did NOTHING to prevent spread of the disease, which is job #1 of a vaccine. The only job it attempted to do was mitigate how bad the symptoms were by spoofing the immune system into creating antibodies against the parts that created the symptoms. This is why a year ago they had to admit the vaccine was never intended to prevent spread. Had the public been told THAT truth up front, the last 3 years would have been a lot different.

“No vaccine is 100% effective in all recipients. The scientific community knows this.”


Nice way to set up a straw man. No one expected 100% effectiveness in preventing Covid from the Pfizer vaccine. And that is why an “expected” 100% effective rate is not what the case is about.

Pfizer lied. As did many in the “scientific” community. Then the government and the media promoted those lies and presented them as absolute truth.

“The majority of the population has been vaccinated, and deaths have dropped as a result.”


Actually the number of deaths dropped due to natural immunity and because the virus became less lethal as it mutated. The truth is that in the unvaccinated in the last week of 2021, the age-standardized mortality rate was 1.69 for every 100K people. In the vaccinated? It was three times higher... 6.55 out of every 100k.

Nice try though.

Different, all right.

Still locked down.

Still "masked up".

Still ANTIsocially distanced.

No thank you.

Natural immunity was 97% effective for the elderly, 100% effective for the youth.

I read the first sentence and knew you wrote the dribble.

yeah drivel, dribble it is the same in your case.

I would expect nothing less from someone on a first name basis with Tony and his wife.

I’m wondering if you’ll end up on the stand in this case. One can only hope. To be followed by criminal charges and a long prison sentnece.

The rest of your post is senseless Dem talking points.

" https://boriquagato.substack.com/p/first-a-trickle-then-a-flood-the "
An interesting substack at the hotlink (in Post #5) that discusses 'risk assessment' as it pertains to the covid *vaxxine*,
and is well worth the short read
The information in the link also gets into 'cancel culture' and how it relates to adverse effects,
and how many researchers were shut down by the media and other medical professionals from critical analysis of the covid *vaxxine*.
I am pro-vaccine, but the covid *vaxxine* required the FDA/CDC to re-write the definition of a vaccine, in order to get "Emergency Use Authorization" (EUA).
Then the FDA/CDC tyrannicaly closed any criticism of the *vaxxine* as misinformation, and tried to hide the ingredients for 72 years,
while they intensionaly indemnified the manufacturers from civil liability.
The covid *vaxxine* is not a vaccine, it is a biological injection with still unknown effects on the human immune system.

Pfizer creates a “vaccine” to give you blood clots.

Pfizer creates Eliquis to get rid of blood clots.

SMH. So corrupt.

LOL! I did the exact same thing — knew immediately that the poster was stillDemMom. Predictable and boring.
