• Uthmeier filed the lawsuit in state court, alleging that Pfizer told consumers its COVID-19 vaccine was safe while failing to disclose potential risks, including heart inflammation ⁠and other adverse events.
• Pfizer, according to the lawsuit, urged people to get the shot to protect others, even though the company never tested whether the vaccine stopped the virus from spreading.
• Florida has also accused Pfizer of using unfair tactics to dominate the market.
• It said the company made more than $80 billion from vaccine sales, then nearly quadrupled the price of the vaccine to $110 to $130 a dose in 2023 from $30.
• The state, ‌suing ⁠under its consumer protection law, wants a court order to stop the alleged conduct, fines of $10,000 per violation, or $15,000 when seniors or disabled people were harmed, and the return of profits.
• Pfizer said in a statement the state's allegations ⁠have no merit and that it would respond to the suit in due course.
• "The representations made by Pfizer about its COVID-19 vaccine have been accurate and ⁠science-based, and the company stands behind the safety and efficacy of its vaccine," the company said.
• "The complaint and comments by Florida Attorney ⁠General James Uthmeier speak for themselves," the Florida Attorney General's Office said in response to a Reuters request for additional comment.

Hallelujah!
It’s about time!
Pfuck Pfizer, they not only sickened and killed people, including children, they made 80 BILLION doing it!

Pfizer still advertising. But not disclosing potential side effects like every other pharmaceutical.

[doc maverick]

They need to go down hard!
In fact, the whole pharmaceutical industry is a huge rip off and they’re making billions upon billions.
What other industry can afford to constantly run 5 minute TV commercials every day?
It’s disgusting!

After getting the Pfizer COVID-19 shot, my elderly but otherwise healthy father soon developed cardiovascular problems that killed him within a year.

This will be an interesting test case. I don’t think it’ll go through. Pfizer will immediately go to their buddies in DC and demand they “make it go away,” and it will. Uthmeier was appointed by DeSantis to replace Ashley Moody when she went to work for Trump, and he’s up for reelection in November. The timing on this one is interesting.

MRNA kills and disables. Do NOT ever forget.

I am loving this.

I hope they have to pay the $80 Billion they made off the crap.

I’m also wondering how Big Pharma gets away with all the TV ads that turn drugs into “high-life party time” while minimizing and diverting from the side effects and lethality of the crap they want you to “ask your doctor if this crap is right for you”....

EVERYTHING about “COVID” was and is a lie. Everything about the “vaccines” was an even bigger lie.
