Description

Former FDA Commissioners Criticize Proposed Changes to Vaccine Safety ProtocolsA group of twelve former FDA leaders, including past commissioners from both parties, have expressed strong opposition to new internal FDA proposals regarding vaccine safety. These former officials argue that the proposed changes, which have not been publicly released but have been confirmed by sources, would harm public health, particularly for vulnerable populations. The controversy centers around an internal FDA memo allegedly authored by the vaccine chief, Dr. Vinay Prasad, which claimed, without evidence, that COVID-19 vaccines were responsible for ten childrens deaths. The memo also outlined planned changes in how the agency handles certain vaccines and suggested that staff who disagreed with these new policies should resign. These proposed changes, including revisions to annual flu shot updates and a new focus on the benefits and harms of administering multiple vaccines simultaneously, have sparked significant concern among the former FDA leaders, who view them as a serious departure from established public health practices. The situation remains ongoing as the FDA has yet to publicly address the criticisms from its former leaders.
