When it comes to mRNA injections for Covid, Americans are 100% dependent on the FDA and vaccine manufacturers to assess and confirm purity and consistency. That might be okay if the testing methodologies that manufacturers and the FDA were still fully transparent, but they\u2019re not.<\/p>\r\n
Not only are the test results confidential, even the methodology<\/em> used hasn\u2019t been made public. The world just has to take manufacturers\u2019 word that there\u2019s no contamination or variability with the mRNA sequence or its lipid nanoparticle<\/a> components \u2013 even though published epidemiology data indicate otherwise.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Secrecy abounds despite the vaccine manufacturers receiving billions of US taxpayer dollars<\/a> to conduct their R&D efforts. Transparency should be nonpartisan, especially when it comes to the quality of America\u2019s pharmaceuticals.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n On top of that, both the Trump and Biden administrations have proposed lifting Covid mRNA intellectual property rights for mRNA injections. Yet both the FDA and manufacturers are tightly protecting the ingredient information as proprietary\/trade secret. But is it really appropriate to label it \u201cproprietary\/trade secret\u201d if the research\/development\/product was funded with hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars<\/a>?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n A transparent, publicly accountable FDA should be eager to prospectively<\/em> test most or all of its regulated products for qualitative<\/em> and quantitative<\/em> consistency \u2013 and make those findings publicly available.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n A transparent FDA would also share its testing methodology for mRNA Covid products for scientists who wish to confirm. But anyone trying to access this information will find it embargoed via an FDA report<\/a> rendered useless by ludicrous redactions of not just the methodology, but the FDA\u2019s critique of the methodology.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Without a list of ingredients or testing methodology, it is impossible for anyone else outside the FDA or manufacturers to know precisely how to check for product consistency. It is especially troublesome since new, preliminary data using independent methodology has produced troubling evidence of contamination in mRNA Covid product<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Also troubling is the fact that in 2021, the FDA opted to start monitoring America\u2019s pharmaceutical quality via a remote collection<\/a> of \u201cmailed-in\u201d drug samples<\/a> \u2013 a far less reliable process than testing samples directly collected at manufacturing plants or distribution points by FDA officials.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n This \u201cmail-in\u201d sampling methodology is absurd. It would be akin to a state health department monitoring restaurants by requesting them to periodically mail in various items from their menu to be tested for potential food-born contamination or asking restaurants to promise to test the items themselves.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Unlike every other FDA-approved pharmaceutical, including previously approved RNA-based products including patisiran (Onpattro\u00ae)<\/a>, none of the Covid injections provide the sequence, molecular weight, and milligram strength on its official FDA package label<\/a>. <\/strong>Normally, official FDA package labeling provides specifics of the actual ingredients in that volume, including the structure\/sequence and specific concentration. That is not the case for Covid mRNA labels.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Look up whatever pharmaceuticals you can think of in the Drugs.com database<\/a>, and you\u2019ll see how all labels provide structure and\/or molecular weight in their official package labeling. Covid mRNA shots are a conspicuous<\/em> exception to the historical FDA approval practice and \u201ctruthful label\u201d rule.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n The study raises a number of critically important questions, which can\u2019t begin to be answered without the consistency being verified beforehand \u2013 and \u201cmail-in\u201d sampling is not<\/u><\/em> the way to do it.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Providing ingredient transparency and assuring quality via an appropriate sampling methodology is a core mission of the FDA. In fact, it was the primary reason for establishing the agency back in 1906<\/a>. Americans today deserve complete transparency and improved quality control oversight when it comes to our pharmaceuticals. Our health may depend on it.<\/p>\r\n Republished from RealClearHealth1<\/a> and republished by\u00a0Brownstone Institute<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" When it comes to mRNA injections for Covid, Americans are 100% dependent on the FDA and vaccine manufacturers to assess and confirm purity and consistency.
