DNA Sequence in Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine Could Spur New Lawsuits: Lawyers
1 The American left
The American left has launched a new movement to defund the police after police bodycam footage showed the beating and subsequent death of Tyre Nichols by police officers. Even though the officers involved were all black, the movement is again being framed around race. Yet, is race the real reason, or is there another agenda? Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump has officially launched his 2024 campaign for president and has outlined his policies on major issues including public safety, immigration, and the politicization of American education. In other news, Pfizer has released its official response to an undercover video from Project Veritas alleging that it has been looking into experiments to mutate the COVID-19 virus.
Pfizer and its partner BioNTech could be open to lawsuits for including a DNA sequence in their COVID-19 vaccine.
The Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act, known as the PREP Act, largely shields COVID-19 vaccine manufacturers from lawsuits, but companies can be sued for “willful misconduct,” which includes acts taken “intentionally to achieve a wrongful purpose.”
“I think what we have here is willful misconduct,” Mat Staver, chairman of Liberty Counsel, told The Epoch Times.
2 The Pfizer-BioNTech
The Pfizer-BioNTech, in testing by outside scientists, was discovered to contain a Simian Virus 40 (SV40) DNA sequence despite the public never being told about the sequence.
Regulators in Canada and Europe have since acknowledged that the companies did not highlight the sequence and that they should have, although regulatory submissions did show the full DNA sequence of the vaccine plasmid.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has refused to disclose whether the companies highlighted the sequence.
The FDA alleged no safety concerns have been identified from the residual DNA left behind by the SV40 sequence, though the agency provided no evidence on the matter.
“I can’t imagine that the FDA knew about this. There’s nothing in the FDA documents that would that I am aware of yet where they knew about this contaminant,” Mr. Staver said.
Outside scientists say the DNA could be behind the host of problems seen in people who received a COVID-19 vaccine, including cancer, though many say more testing is required to prove a link.

3 Under a declaration
Under a declaration by then-Health Secretary Alex Azar in 2020, COVID-19 vaccines fall under the PREP Act. That act is aimed at allowing a quicker response to a health emergency and grants widespread immunity to manufacturers of vaccines and treatments, as well as administrators of the drugs.
The protection remains in place to this day thanks to extensions through both the Trump and Biden administrations.
The PREP Act has largely prevented lawsuits concerning the COVID-19 vaccines, but several recent developments could change that.
In August, a Michigan judge ruled that the drug manufacturer Gilead Sciences was not protected by the act in the case of a man who needed his leg amputated after receiving Gilead’s drug remdesivir, used as a treatment for COVID-19. The administered drug was said to be contaminated with glass particles.
The other is the revelation that Pfizer’s shot contains the SV40 sequence.
That could help plaintiffs “pierce that legal immunity that’s otherwise provided by the PREP Act,” Mr. Staver said.
He said he’s heard from personal injury firms and organizations who are exploring suits and that Liberty Counsel is considering bringing some as well in light of the developments.
4 Pfizer and BioNTech
Liberty Counsel has been involved in multiple major suits concerning COVID-19 vaccines, including some with military members who were denied in form letters requests for religious exemptions from the military’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate. The firm helped win orders blocking the military from discharging those members.
Pfizer and BioNTech have not returned requests for comment.
Warner Mendenhall, another American lawyer, said on a recent call that lawyers are talking about taking a different approach.
“The latest conversation that we’ve been talking about … is whether we have access right now, at least for some people, to prove battery,” he said.
Informed consent requires having information, “and nobody knew about the SV40,” he said.
Without such knowledge, vaccine recipients could not properly give consent, according to Mr. Mendenhall.
5 Here is a conspiracy theory
“And if you haven’t consented, and somebody does something to you without being informed and given proper consent, it’s called battery. So, there is some opening for battery cases. And we’re in discussions right now, and those may be able to be brought as as what are called mass torts or mass cases. So we’re working on that.”
Here is a conspiracy theory that is no longer a conspiracy theory in my mind. I am a somewhat objective person with reasonable intelligence. The more time that goes by, the more studies that come out, the more information leaked, and knowing the incompetence and the corruption of our Government and the CDC, the more I believe the COVID virus was released on purpose to force lockdowns to allow mail-in ballots.
All in a massive coordinated effort to get rid of Donald Trump. Now I know you’ve all heard this one but think about it now, today. Look what they are going through now to keep Trump out! A massive campaign at the Federal and State levels. It’s almost a panic now. Also, did anyone ever believe the 40-year career dummy Joe Biden got over 80 million votes? Really? More than Obama? Look back now, keeping in mind everything you know today. It almost couldn’t be clearer! It’s really the only explanation that’s somewhat feasible today. Nothing else makes any sense. This is no longer a conspiracy theory. It’s most likely the truth.
I know my parents never would have been haggling with me to get vaccinated if the truth about the effectiveness alone was told! Nobody would have taken the vaccination if the truth was told! WE WERE NOT INFORMED!
