Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton sued Pfizer Inc. for allegedly misrepresenting the effectiveness of the company’s Covid-19 vaccine.
The pharmaceutical giant used misleading statistics to promote the vaccine and sought to “intimidate” anyone who questioned the product, according to the lawsuit filed in a Texas state court Thursday. The conservative Republican is seeking more than $10 million in fines and a court order barring Pfizer from speaking publicly about the efficacy of its vaccine.
“We are pursuing justice for the people of Texas, many of whom were coerced by tyrannical vaccine mandates to take a defective product sold by lies,” Paxton said in a statement.
The lawsuit follows a probe launched by his office in May into three major drug companies related to claims about the effectiveness of the vaccine. Paxton has been a vocal opponent of Covid safety mandates since the onset of the pandemic.
Pfizer has “no higher priority than the safety and effectiveness of its treatments and vaccines,” a spokesperson for the New York-based company said in an emailed statement.
“The representations made by the company about its COVID-19 vaccine have been accurate and science-based,” Pfizer said.

Oooh 10 million in fines. I don’t think a 10 TRILLION dollar find would hurt them or make them change how they do business.

@GuiltyD3legate6mos6MO
The governments all over the globe forced the people to get vaccinated.They had no options as the unvaccinated were banned from entering airports,offices.....More people are dying from the vaccine side effects than the disease.covid was a big big SCAM.

That's a start. Only conviction for pre meditated murder will do.
