DeSantis seeks grand jury probe into Covid-19 shots - Jacksonville Business Journal

DeSantis announced his request for a grand jury during a media event to discuss “COVID-19 mRNA vaccine accountability,” where he was joined by state Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo and a group of professors, researchers and a doctor who questioned the efficacy of coronavirus vaccines and whether adverse health reactions have been accurately reported.

While asking the Supreme Court for a statewide grand jury had been a relatively unusual step, DeSantis since he was first elected in 2018 has made similar requests for probes into high-profile issues. Florida Supreme Court justices in June approved a request by the governor to impanel a grand jury to investigate immigration-related issues.

The petition seeks an inquiry into pharmaceutical companies and their executives, as well as “medical associations or organizations involved in the design, development, clinical testing or investigation, manufacture, marketing, representation, advertising, promotion, labeling, distribution, formulation, packing, sale, purchase, donation, dispensing, prescribing, administration, or use of vaccines purported to prevent COVID-19” infections, symptoms and transmission.

Ladapo said the state health department will work with “some of our medical examiners” in Florida as well as researchers at the University of Florida to perform the study. The website also said that myocarditis, a condition where the heart becomes inflamed in response to an infection or other trigger, is rare, and pointed to a study that showed patients with COVID-19 “had nearly 16 times the risk for myocarditis compared with patients who did not have COVID-19.”
