DeSantis Launches Full-Throttle Accountability Investigations into COVID Vaccines

This could become one of the biggest stories of 2023, even if the corporate media tries to hide it.

One of the greatest potential threats to public health to come from the COVID imbroglio has been the introduction and forced acceptance of the experimental, barely studied, first-time mRNA vaccine. Most places, not all, have grudgingly backed off the shot mandates, but Americans still have precious little information on the vaccines’ efficacy and dangers—except for the rapidly growing VAERS database of severe post-vaccine adverse events.

So now we finally have one major political leader willing to take the leap forward to launch a long-needed full-scale investigation using the powers of the state. No real surprise that it is Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.

These will not be congressional hearings, although those would be valuable if anyone other than Senator Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) had the gonads to actually call for them. These actions have the entire power structure of the state of Florida behind them, including the courts, to perhaps actually get to the bottom of one of the biggest, most underreported, or silenced, controversies in the world.

(Prediction: If some of our worst suspicions are confirmed in this process, the statist media will inevitably run interference by not covering the actual results, but attacking the process, patient rights’ violations, “DeathSantis” and so on. See the invisible coverage of the Twitter Files, surely the biggest social media scandal in history, as evidence.)

DeSantis held a roundtable discussion on Tuesday with state Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo and a bevy of world-renowned physicians, researchers, and public health experts, at which he announced his intentions to hold the federal government and Big Pharma accountable.

He announced three major steps:

• Filing a petition with the Florida Supreme Court to impanel a statewide grand jury to investigate crimes and wrongdoing committed against Floridians related to the COVID-19 vaccine.
• Establishing a public health integrity committee that will be overseen by Ladapo to assess federal public health recommendations to ensure that Florida’s public health policies are tailored for Florida’s communities and priorities.
• Conducting further investigation into the sudden deaths of individuals who received the COVID-19 vaccine in Florida, based on autopsy results. The state will collaborate with the University of Florida to compare research with studies conducted in other countries.

Probably the most powerful element within this set of actions is the statewide grand jury because of its ability to compel the pharmaceutical industry to release patient-level data to independent researchers. The grand jury does need to be approved by the Florida Supreme Court, but that’s unlikely to be a problem.

These statewide grand juries have only been impaneled 20 times in more than 40 years in Florida—but DeSantis is now asking for one for the third time in his first term. In 2019, he asked for a grand jury to investigate school safety following the massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland. Earlier this year, he asked for one to investigate migrants being brought to Florida from other states.

The Pfizer and Moderna vaccines were given “emergency use authorization” by the FDA and continue to be deemed safe and effective for pediatric and adult patients, even though the vaccines self-evidently do not, and never did, prevent transmission. Adverse events have been gamed in reporting throughout the federal government and health care systems, led by the unholy trio of the federal leviathan, Big Pharma, and the Biden Administration.

DeSantis said at the end of the roundtable that the grand jury will be able to “investigate any and all wrongdoing in Florida with respect to COVID-19 vaccines” and be an avenue to provide “legal accountability” for anyone who committed criminal misconduct. It may also shed a lot more disinfecting light on the entire affair.

The public health integrity committee, overseen by the state surgeon general, will dive into assessing federal decisions, recommendations, and guidelines related to public health and healthcare.

Many of the members of the committee will be familiar to people following the counter-vaccine movement. Most have been silenced, fired, banned from social media and attacked incessantly by incandescently idiotic members of the statist media. Those people include:

•     Jay Bhattacharya, M.D., Ph.D.
•     Martin Kuldorff, Ph.D.
•     Tracy Beth Høeg, M.D., Ph.D.
•     Joseph Fraiman, M.D.
•     Christine Stabell Benn, M.D., Ph.D.
•     Bret Weinstein, Ph.D.
•     Steven Templeton, Ph.D.

DeSantis is no stranger to the limelight and is a quote machine. But on this metaphorical stage, he let the experts—actual experts, not media-anointed narrative lapdogs—do most of the talking.

“Health care professionals should always communicate the risks of a medical intervention to their patients in a manner that is clinically appropriate and meets standards of ethical practice. President Biden and Big Pharma have completely prevented that from happening—it is wrong,” Ladapo said. “With these new actions, we will shed light on the forces that have obscured truthful communication about the COVID-19 vaccines.”

The third element of DeSantis’ actions could prove as lethal to the vaccines as the rest. German researchers reported disturbing results last month after studying a set of autopsies on people who died unexpectedly within 20 days after getting the vaccine. The German scientists found almost 20 percent of the deaths appeared due to acute arrhythmogenic cardiac failure, or myocarditis, a known common side effect of the vaccines.

So Florida will begin a monitoring study on myocarditis and COVID deaths in conjunction with Florida’s medical examiners and the University of Florida.

This could become one of the biggest stories of 2023, even if the corporate media tries to hide it.
