But the science is settled:
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requested Monday for the courts to give them until 2076 to review and fully release the documents pertaining to the approval of the Pfizer BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine.
The agency had determined that there were a total of 329,000 pages that needed to be reviewed in order to fulfill the plaintiff’s FOIA request, and proposed that they would be able to “process and produce the non-exempt portions of responsive records at a rate of 500 pages per month.” The FDA said they would provide the plaintiff with prioritized documents and release the non-exempt portions of the records on a “rolling basis.” This rate of review places the FDA’s release of the documents at nearly 55 years.
Go here to read the rest. Mad Max can be placed in charge of distribution of the final documents.
2076?
How optimistic of the FDA.
329,000 pages to be reviewed?
That, in itself, is telling of the insanity of the Pfizer vaccine.
Transparent is the negligence of providing transparency when asked.
Sounds like they want to wait until all the guilty parties are dead.
“But the science is settled.”
Great comment.
One thing I am compelled to say is that exemptions do need to be respected. People submit protected material to the government with the understanding that it is going to be protected by the statutory exemptions in FOIA. And that applies to individuals and mega-corps. The law is the law.
But 500 pages per month is foot-dragging, even given the genuine need to make sure that exempted material is protected.
Nuts to that: they can hire law firms to help with the review and production process, just like private entities complying with administrative subpoenas have to.
It’s this kind of pussy-footing that erodes trust.
To the extent any still exists, that is.
Reminds me of the Warren Commission
Why would the review document even be that long- whats in it to warrant being that long? You need a comparison to other vaccines review papers to see if Pfizer are deliberately taking the Mickey out of the FDA. That’s playing with peoples lives just to play spiteful politics.
