Yeah, there were problems in the manner that you're describing, but may I one-up you? And it's this. Go ahead. They said it's 95% effective. What was that based on? It was based on the fact that about 100 and something individuals, and this was for Pfizer initially, 100 and something individuals had some symptoms consistent with COVID-19, and they tested positive.
and about, I forgot what it was, was a single digit of individuals in the vaccinated group and the exposed group had some symptoms. And they said, therefore, it's 95% effective. That wasn't measuring, you know, when they gave it emergency use authorization, that wasn't measuring death, hospitalization, or severe outcomes. It was just measuring those symptoms and

You know, we brought the lawsuit that got against the FDA when they wanted to hide the data for 75 years, and we've gotten a lot of that data now, not all of it, to license the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. And when you look at that data, what you see is that there are hundreds and hundreds of individuals who had some symptoms consistent maybe with COVID, but were not tested.

So how do you know that those who were tested were not cherry-picked, were not an aberration? You know, they were telling every single American to test almost daily, but yet they couldn't just test everybody in this clinical trial, you're telling me? Really?

And you know, had they done that, by the way, just once a week tested everybody, the 30 to 42,000 individuals, depending on the trial, you would have also known whether or not it prevented transmission, but they didn't do that. I'll add one last point, if I may, and it's this. While they did a statistical comparison with regards to the efficacy, that 95%,

When it came to deaths, that's not what they did.

They didn't look at deaths at all. No, they did.
They didn't look at deaths at all. No, they did.
Well, the severe outcomes was an endpoint. Death is a severe outcome. So it would certainly have been on the safety front. It measured serious adverse events. If you go to the FDA definition of serious adverse event, it has a list. It's the fine term for the clinical trial. Death is one of them. So it did look at deaths as a safety outcome, safety outcome.

And in that regard, if you look at all cause death mortality in the trials, there were 21 deaths. excuse me, one, I believe, deaths in the vaccinated group for the Pfizer trial and around 15 deaths in the placebo group. But did they do a statistical comparison? By the way, this again, not me. This is in the FDA documentation. You can pull it up yourself.

It's on the FDA website in the summary documentation. But did they do a comparison, statistical comparison? No. Instead, they let Pfizer explain away each death individually and say, well, none of them were related to the vaccine or to the placebo.

Here's how we fix it. We just treat vaccines like every other product. I mentioned before Pfizer's drug products, right? Why do they do multi-year placebo-controlled trials? Because they want to know the safety, Dr. Drew, before it goes on the market. Because if they put a drug on the market and it hurts 100,000 people, they're on the hook. They don't want to end up financially upside down.
