FDA Finally Approves "Pro Life" Novavax COVID-19 Vaccines - COVID Vaccines for Conservatives?
In a surprise move, the FDA approved a 3rd COVID-19 vaccine yesterday (Saturday, May 17), the Novavax COVID-19 vaccine. It was originally scheduled to be approved on April 1st this year, and many doubted that the FDA would actually approve it.
The vaccine has already been in the market since 2022 when it was granted an EUA (emergency use authorization) under Biden.
While its distribution has been tiny compared to the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, 743 cases of death and injuries following the vaccine have already been reported in the CDC and FDA Vaccine Adverse Reporting System database (VAERS).
Conservatives have been claiming that this vaccine is much preferable to the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines since 2021, because it is not an mRNA vaccine, and was originally advertised as a vaccine that did not use fetal tissue in production, such as the Pfizer and Moderna COVID shots.
Even the corporate media jumped on the Novavax vaccine bandwagon back then, as the Washington Post stated that this was the vaccine that can win over “religious vaccine skeptics.”
However, Sarah Quale, writing for the PersonHood Alliance, reported that evidence from a private letter and Novavax’s own published study showed that the HEK293 aborted fetal cell line was used in the testing phase after all.
Kennedy says a lot of things publicly to appease his fan base, but anyone who thinks that he will actually change the decades-long commitment in this country to produce as many vaccines as possible, clearly has no idea how D.C. politics work.
The only thing that changes between administrations, is the destination of profits from the very lucrative vaccine industry run by the U.S. Government enriching Big Pharma.
And if Kennedy and his team can get more Conservative Christians to start taking more vaccines and giving them to their children because now there is a “new pro-life vaccine,” that means an increase in profits from vaccine sales.
