Kansas Attorney General Discusses Pfizer COVID Vaccine Lawsuit
You're suing Pfizer for misleading claims on the
COVID vaccine, sir.
Round of applause for you on this. What's this about and what's your case?
Well, the case is that Pfizer violated the Kansas Consumer
Protection Act, and by
the way, all 50 states have some version of a
consumer protection act.
And while the federal government gave all the vaccine manufacturers immunity
from normal tort suits where someone who's injured would sue the
company seeking damages for their injury, it, the federal government did not
give the vaccine manufacturers license to
misrepresent or state things that they knew to be false when trying to
push their product.
Mm-hmm.
And that's what this lawsuit is about.
They made multiple misrepresentations, including saying it was safe for pregnant
women when Pfizer was well aware of the many
risks to pregnant women, and they had information in their
possession, uh, not only
of, of causing, you know, grave problems for pregnant rats,
but they also
had information as early as February 2021, uh, on
458 pregnant women. And they knew that there were
complications, uh, in- including miscarriages in over 10%
of the cases. Just think about that. A, a person dies in every miscarriage.
Uh, and yet they proceeded to advertise it as
safe for pregnant women.
So the lawsuit is about misrepresenting their product.
Yeah. No, that is shocking to me. Well, uh, Attorney General, Chris Korbuch, I
really appreciate you doing this, filing that suit and the briefs for the,
uh,
Chevron case. Outstanding work, sir. Appreciate it.
Thank you.
