Trump Calls for Transparency: Pfizer Must Share Vaccine Data Immediately

“It is very important that the Drug Companies justify the success of their various Covid Drugs."

President Donald Trump issued a Labor Day appeal for Pfizer to share its COVID-19 vaccine data with the CDC and the public immediately.

Trump said on Truth Social that Pfizer had shown him impressive numbers on its COVID vaccine, but that they had not made them publicly available. His call for transparency comes after the White House fired CDC Director Susan Monarez last week following her clash with Health and Human Services Director Robert F. Kennedy Jr. over the approval of COVID vaccines. 

“It is very important that the Drug Companies justify the success of their various Covid Drugs. Many people think they are a miracle that saved Millions of lives. Others disagree! With CDC being ripped apart over this question, I want the answer, and I want it NOW,” Trump wrote. “I have been shown information from Pfizer, and others, that is extraordinary, but they never seem to show those results to the public. Why not??? They go off to the next ‘hunt’ and let everyone rip themselves apart, including Bobby Kennedy Jr. and CDC, trying to figure out the success or failure of the Drug Companies Covid work.”

“They show me GREAT numbers and results, but they don’t seem to be showing them to many others,” Trump added. “I want them to show them NOW, to CDC and the public, and clear up this MESS, one way or the other!!! I hope OPERATION WARP SPEED was as ‘BRILLIANT’ as many say it was. If not, we all want to know about it, and why???”

During his first term, Trump launched “Operation Warp Speed” to fast-track the development and approval of COVID-19 vaccines. Under the Biden administration, mandates were introduced requiring vaccination for the military, healthcare workers at federally funded facilities, federal employees and contractors, and employees of large businesses. Federal courts later blocked some of these mandates, while others remained in effect.

After Monarez was fired last week, Kennedy appointed HHS Deputy Director Jim O’Neil as the acting director of the CDC. Monarez was terminated after she failed to commit to rescinding her approval for certain COVID-19 vaccine age groups. At least four senior CDC officials left in protest over Monarez’s firing.
