CDC Buried COVID Vaccine Death Data in Lancet Study, Internal Documents Reveal

TL;DR

  • Children's Health Defense (CHD) obtained internal CDC documents suggesting a study on COVID-19 vaccine adverse events was altered to downplay deaths.
  • An earlier draft of the study, acquired by CHD via a FOIA lawsuit, differed significantly from the published version in The Lancet Infectious Diseases.
  • The CDC study authors reportedly removed details about deaths from the abstract and buried data in supplemental materials.
  • One study author, Dr. Tom Shimabukuro, is under investigation for allegedly destroying agency records related to COVID-19 vaccine adverse events.
  • The study authors' justification for the pattern of deaths post-vaccination was compared to other adult vaccinations, a comparison critics found lacking in detail and potentially misleading.
