President Donald Trump demanded that pharmaceutical companies publish data related to the success rates of their “medications” Covid to clarify the “disorder” of discrepancy about the products, although some information already seems to be available.
In a social publication of Truth on Monday, Trump wrote that he has seen “extraordinary information” by Pfizer and others “that have never been released to the public. He expressed skepticism about why the data has not been published despite the division on the success of Covid” Drugs “.
“They show me large numbers and results, but they don’t seem to be showing them to many others,” Trump wrote. “I want them to show them now, to the CDC and the public, and clarify this disaster, in one way or another!”
He did not specify what data he would like to be released, or what specific “medications” they referred to, either vaccination or antiviral medications such as Paxlovid.
Pfizer, the only company appointed by Trump, did not immediately respond to a request for comments. In a press release announcing its distribution for new vaccines last week, the company included a link to its most recent presentation, as of May, in its efficacy of the vaccine.
The presentation of Modern, also of May, is available similarly through the website of the Food and Drug Administration.
In May 2020, during pandemic peak, Trump launched Operation Warp Speed, an association between the public and private sectors to advance a Covid vaccination. Trump has defended the speed of Warp operation as a success despite the unbridled feeling against vaccination.
He referred to Operation Warp Speed in his position, saying that he expected it to be as “brilliant” as some have praised.
Senator Bill Cassidy, Republican of La-la.
“People who criticize the speed of the operation of the Trump operation typically misrepresents and carefully select their deeds,” Cassidy wrote. “We should be honest about the success of Operation Warp Speed.”
Vaccines should be approved through the FDA, which requires companies to send data for review. Since 2020, manufacturers have presented new COVID vaccines for approval to specific strains for the annual flu vaccination.
The last vaccination voltage was approved unanimously to be distributed this fall by the Vaccines of the FDA and the advisory committee of related biological products.
The Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., announced last week that there would be restrictions on recommendations for whom the vaccine could obtain. Vaccination would be approved for adults over 65, as well as for children and adults with at least a medical condition that puts them at risk of serious diseases, he said.
Kennedy is a well -known vaccine skeptic that ended all members in the independent vaccine advice committee of the centers for the control and prevention of prevention this summer.
The conflict about vaccination reached a fever launch last week when the former CDC director, Susan Monaz, was fired. His termination led to a massive exodus of other high -ranking officials in the agency and protests outside the CDC headquarters in Atlanta.
