Florida Grand Jury Investigating COVID-19 Vaccines Finds Problems, but No Crimes

A grand jury in Florida that was convened to investigate COVID-19 vaccines has concluded its work by issuing no indictment, despite uncovering what it described as “many acute and systemic problems.”

The grand jury faulted Pfizer and Moderna, which have made versions of the vaccines since 2020, for unblinding their first clinical trials after they received authorization for their shots, repeatedly missing deadlines for post-authorization studies, and keeping secret information on vaccine safety.

“It is frustrating to this Grand Jury, as it should be frustrating to everyone who reads this report, to know that these sponsors have taken in billions of taxpayer dollars for creating and selling their vaccines; they cannot be sued if something goes wrong with them; they have access to critical information about deaths related to a side effect of their products; and the public does not have access to that information,” the grand jury stated in the 144-page report released on Jan. 7.
