Outgoing FDA Officials Blast Biden Vaccine Booster Plan
Biden’s promise to ‘follow the science’ would occur only if convenient to do so. The need to drive Afghanistan out of the headlines is actually more important.
Two outgoing members of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Office of Vaccines Research and Review were among the authors of a paper blasting Biden’s plan for increased COVID-19 booster vaccines.
Director Marion Gruber and Deputy Director Phil Krause announced their resignations from the FDA on Aug. 31 and are set to leave this fall. Current administration sources told Politico that the pair resigned due to disagreements between the Biden administration and the agency over the efficacy of booster shots for the coronavirus vaccines.
Gruber and Krause were among 18 scientists who penned a Sept. 13 article in medical journal Lancet calling for vaccines to be dispensed to the unvaccinated rather than provided as boosters for those who have already received a full dose. Krause was listed as the primary author.
“Careful and public scrutiny of the evolving data will be needed to assure that decisions about boosting are informed by reliable science more than by politics,” the paper said. “Even if boosting were eventually shown to decrease the medium-term risk of serious disease, current vaccine supplies could save more lives if used in previously unvaccinated populations than if used as boosters in vaccinated populations.”
Agency scientists are also questioning if Biden is willing to “follow the science.”
The experts reviewed studies of the vaccines’ performance and concluded the shots are working well despite the extra-contagious delta variant, especially against severe disease.
“Even in populations with fairly high vaccination rates, the unvaccinated are still the major drivers of transmission” at this stage of the pandemic, they concluded.
The opinion piece, published in The Lancet, illustrates the intense scientific debate about who needs booster doses and when, a decision the U.S. and other countries are grappling with.
After revelations of political meddling in the Trump administration’s coronavirus response, President Joe Biden has promised to “follow the science.” But the review raises the question of whether his administration is moving faster than the experts.
Additionally, the Biden administration and the FDA are reportedly clashing with officials from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Biden and the FDA are reportedly accusing the CDC of withholding crucial data that would help shape the administration’s plan to push COVID-19 booster shots, according to a recent Politico report that cited several administration officials.
Two of the officials spoke about their frustration when senior officials bucked Biden’s booster shot plan by pushing the prioritization of shots for frontline health care workers and elderly Americans.
Weeks before, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky had signed onto an endorsement of Biden’s booster plan with other top Biden administration health officials.
Some officials are fed up with the White House’s timeline and vaccination goals, saying the administration’s expectations are not realistic and are part of a push to get good press.
Biden’s promise to ‘follow the science’ would occur only if convenient to do so. The need to drive the epic failure of Afghanistan out of the headlines is more important.

If they were following the science, CDC and FDA would be promoting Vitamin D supplements, monoclonal antibody treatments, and exploring the impact of the MMR and DPT vaccines. They would also promote sequestering the ill and the infirm. They would clearly recognize natural immunity as part of the total picture. And they would drop those useless, leaky masks entirely.
They act like they don’t know that natural immunity exists and is something to be encouraged, for the purpose of rounding out society’s overall immune response.
This monochromatic approach poses a very real danger to our society, because the current COVID vaccines are leaky. Leaky vaccines, used alone, are inappropriate.

Current “policy” is promoting the development of a new version of Marek’s disease in humans. We are seeing this already, as “fully vaccinated people” are documented with breakthrough infections producing mainly variant viral particles.
And how many of these unvaccinateds are illegal immigrants who have been transferred by the government into populated areas for political reasons? Wouldn’t that be nice to know?
The Biden administration has, through their actions, conveyed the message that illegal aliens who cross our borders CANNOT catch CoVid, cannot transmit CoVid and cannot transmit any other disease. Did you miss the memo Phil?
Estimates are that 5% to 15% of people entering the US from the souther border are Covid positive.
That means as many as 200,000 covid positives entering and being transported around the USA courtesy of your tax dollars (which pays their transportation expense).
Plus they get free healthcare – so if 10% of those cases go to the hospital about 20,000 at about $20,000 per stay = we are all paying $400 million for their care.
US citizens get the shaft.
So are these two in favor of invading the homes of the unvaccinated and force-jabbing them because they are too stupid to know the potential fatal reactions of the jab? Do they agree that the variants are a direct result of the virus knowing that there are people who haven’t taken the jab? Do they approve of forcing parents to have their innocent children injected so the kids can go to school (where they still can get sick with the virus)? Do they favor masking and social distancing and, if so, isn’t this the group that told us that with the “vaccine” there would no longer be a need for masks and social distancing? Do they agree that cloth masks can stop the virus from invading the body of a breathing person or would they prefer that children not breathe while at school? Do they agree that every person who works in government should be required to take the jab before it is forced on those in the private sector as examples (that means NO CARVEOUT GROUPS)? Are they willing to put their professional certifications on the line to say that taking the jab and any and all boosters deemed advisable will positively stop CoVid-19 dead in its tracks? Do they agree that Hydroxycloroquine and Ivermectin fail to reduce symptoms and lessen the severity of CoVid in all cases? Do they think the American public is too stupid to research the virus, treatments, world data, hypocritical CDC policies and the garbage spewed from the mouthpiece of the organization (Weather Vane in a Hurricane Fauci)?
They seem to be focused on better uses for available vaccine instead of offering protection to people who want continuing protection.
How much testing have they given the boosters?
The so-called ‘vaccines’ received minimal testing before being unleashed on the public. With the understanding this was a dire emergency and any vaccine was better than no vaccine.
But now, rather than being open and upfront with the public, there is an obvious effort to minimize, downplay, and ignore side effects of these so-called vaccines in the midst of widespread reports that deaths from these vaccines exceed those of any previous vaccines by many, many orders of magnitude. VAERS reports over 13,000 deaths. And that is probably be low. Not to mention all of the other side effects that do not result in death.
This for a virus we now know has a survivability rate for those under the age of 50 of over 99.98%.
Add in all of Fauci’s and the CDC’s lies and flips flops and contradictions.
And the fact that large numbers of nurses, doctors, and other health care workers are refusing the jab.
Plus, The Regime wants to vaccinate those who have developed natural immunity from previous infections. That makes no sense.
This doesn’t add up. Something is not right. We are being lied to and manipulated. And people are beginning to see that.
“How much testing have they given the boosters?”
I don’t think there’s anything different in the boosters, it’s just one more bite at the same old apple.
So another dose of exactly the same vaccine. Because the first two worked so well. For a few months. More or less.
Reports I’ve seen show there were far more side effects after the second shot than after the first. Hmmm.
Maybe we’ll need boosters every few months for the foreseeable future. Then every couple of months. Maybe eventually every month. Then they can start adding other things to it that are ‘good for you’.
Then a new name for it. Maybe ‘soma’ (h/t, Huxley).
At least soma gave you a high.
We’re still waiting to see if antibody dependent enhancement and autoimmune disease is going to be a problem. They always were in animal trials, and the pharma companies have never said how they solved these problems, which suggests to me they didn’t.
Plus another jab is another blast of spike proteins to your heart. Myocarditis/pericarditis, which pharma and the FDA are heavily downplaying, only has a 5 year survival rate of 1/3. A whole bunch of people are going to get heart attacks from this, especially in the elderly (which may be a bonus if you’re the feds paying Medicare for them). Keep doing the six-month booster and you’re just doubling down on the side effects.
And after a few years when we find out the vaccines created more health issues than the virus itself….They’ll do all they can to cover it up to make sure we never know.
“HHS has seized control of distribution of monoclonal antibodies and is restricting supply into southern states, despite ramped up production by Regeneron and GSK and Fauci himself sayin they are *under*utilized. GSK’s is not even federally purchased but HHS is limiting shipments.”

Duke University begs to differ.
