The leading vaccine regulator at the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has announced a far stricter course for federal vaccine approvals, following claims from his team that Covid vaccines were linked to the deaths of at least 10 children.
Experts suggest the announcement will make the vaccine approval process significantly more difficult.
Dr Vinay Prasad, whose vaccine policy direction has been supported by the US health secretary, Robert F Kennedy Jr, told FDA staff that the agency would rethink its approach to vaccination programs, according to an internal agency email circulated on Friday and later obtained by several media outlets.
The internal memo reportedly stated that a recent review determined at least 10 children had died “after and because of” receiving a Covid vaccine. Prasad noted that these deaths appeared tied to myocarditis, or inflammation of the heart muscle.
A PBS NewsHour correspondent first reported on the memo’s contents in a post on X. The New York Times noted that the document did not include identifying details such as the children’s ages, any existing health conditions, or how the causal relationship between vaccination and death was determined. The vaccine manufacturers involved were also not named.
So FDAs new rules are making vaccines unsafe? Maybe that was the plan from the start.
Did they forget who fucking runs the FDA? Short-term memory people, I swear.
“Why we can’t understand how these kinds of regulations could possibly ever happen, we think the new protocols is dangerous! Lets go through RFK Jr, he’ll know what to do! It’s not like he’s had a record of challenging medical science or anything!”
Flu is miserable. As is, all we have to combat it after the fact is Tamiflu. Manufacturer hype aside, the data says, at best, Tamiflu shaves 16hrs off the duration of the flu, if any only if it is taken within 2 days of showing symptoms. Not after.
Flu can also kill old people.
I’m not even that old and I take the shot yearly. Worst case is a sore deltoid and possibly a weak parody of a fever on day 1. Way better than flu imo.
So what they are saying is that under RFK Jr, the FDA has taken a decisive stance on overpopulation.
I predict this is the first step in making all drugs easier to get approved because the Democrats really want vaccines to not suffer through the standard procedure and Republicans hate the standard procedure

IMO people should research what they’re putting in their bodies anyway, putting a bit more poison on the market just makes that more important
Maybe, but when the national government runs a department explicitly to ensure people don’t die from ingesting medicines, I think it’s reasonable for the country’s populace to expect medicines issued in their country and authorized by that government department to be safe and effective.
People shouldn’t have to get sick or die, in order for current administrations to score political points.
but how else will they up their kill count?
