In an effort to assuage vaccine doubts, the chief executives of nine pharmaceutical companies released a letter attempting to ensure Americans that a vaccine will not be rushed out before being meticulously tested

Safety first. Photo: Chandan Khanna/AFP via Getty Images With anti-vaxx sentiment on the rise generally and President Trump hinting that a shot providing coronavirus immunity could arrive as soon as October — coincidentally just before the presidential election — it’s no surprise that many Americans are skeptical about the efficacy and safety of a COVID-19 vaccine.

Companies that signed on to the letter include GlaxoSmithKline, Pfizer, Merck, AstraZeneca, and Moderna. The latter two have produced vaccines that are undergoing phase-three trials. Indeed, while the letter presents the FDA as a neutral arbiter, the agency, like the CDC, has lately been seen by many observers as being susceptible to political pressure from the president, who has accused the agency of intentionally slowing vaccine research to hurt his reelection. In August, FDA Director Stephen Hahn overstated the effects of a blood plasma treatment favored by President Trump before being forced to backtrack amid public pressure.

During a press conference on Monday, Trump hinted, not for the first time, that a vaccine could be forthcoming by Election Day — a target that experts like Dr. Anthony Fauci have called unlikely. “What I said is by the end of the year, but I think it could even be sooner than that,” Trump said. “It could be during the month of October, actually could be before November.”

Yep. As I always say: You can always trust what Big Pharma CEOs put out in press releases.

big pharma has a long history of sleazy, rapacious business practices. their credibility is zero. trump’s credibility is zero. the u.s. goverment’s credibility is less than zero.

Nope no thanks not interested, not now not ever!✌🏽

If trump has so many followers who supposedly believe in him, why aren't they volunteering for these trials? Especially the 'large minority population' he claims will vote for him- where are they now?

Vaccines typically take YEARS to develop, but sure, I'll let them inject me with something they cooked up in a couple months 🙄

As much as I deeply despise big pharma this is reassuring.

This story adds more fuel to the fire for anti vaccine people

This was JUST posted!

Oh, the big, capitalist companies are assuring the pocket lining public that it’s safe? Well in that case I feel better...where do I sign up?🙄

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Except no matter what they are not liable for any injuries they may cause. Profit over people

Rigorous peer reviews need to scrutinize the data... the raw data, see how the outliers are classified, etc.

They can say what they want but that things getting injected into a few million people before I come anywhere close.

Think about this news release from these executives assuring us that they won't bend to Trump's pressure to rush release of a vaccine of such importance. Can you ever remember a time other than Trump-Time when this statement would have had to be made.

:// while i hope a vaccine can be developed as quickly as possible, pharma execs really cant be trusted

Why can't big pharm's collaborate?

How about the CEOS get injected first?

Nigga if the side effects were that my dick grew 3 more inches ill be fine

Vaccines aren’t profitable stop being so skeptical!!

does that testing include the safety of getting the seasonal flu vaccine prior and/or after getting the COVID vaccine

This all lies . Why vaccine manufacturers are exempt from liability

Oh yeah, big pharma is totally trustworthy 🙄

Yeah... thats a no for me. Too much money to be made. I'm no anti-vaxer but I'm not touching a covid vaccine till there is years of data backing it.

Every one of them could swear a vow. Why should they be believed after all the dangerous devices & 'meds' they've known about, kept mum about, yet unleashed over the years? I'll wait a while, thank you.

It’s scary that joe felt the need to politicize this and say he will be sure to speed up vaccine time.. I’m sure they are already doing the best they can and joe has no way of making it go any faster.

Lol tell orange man that

BillGatesCanStickItFauxiToo

did they also release a list of corporate political contributions and individual donations by top executives?

I’m not touching that vaccine with a 30 foot poll.

“Oh, you pledged it? No one has ever done that before. Well, then, I’m convinced.” - Boeing investor.

Well, Delay delay until the law changes & they are held accountable. LOL But delay is good, since we are not taking it until ...........

Tested, shemsted! Then they pay their lawyers $10,000 per hour to escape liability if their product fails!

So... Trust the phamacuitical corporation.... .... Gotcha

I knew I was right when I said I would NOT take a vaccine that was made during this Administration's term.

It did not assuage any of my doubts. I’ll pass on this one.

No, pharma cannot nor will ever do that. They’ll rush and have total indemnity. As always.

Wait. They’re rushing the normal safety timeline from three years and cutting it to only one year, but want us to believe it’s safe!?! There’s only one thing they have their eye on: $$$

WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! highly ethical and Big Pharma should not be used in the same sentence. There are several pharma right now being sued for Billions, for being Unethical. Johnson and Johnson is one if the WORST. And don't talk about back in the day with syphilis. NOT ME. NOPE

So what are we to infer when they don't pledge safety?

Why get a vaccine for something that only kills the very sick or very old? The Flu is more deadly and I dont get that vaccine 😂

What's the over/under that the DOJ will now go after them for collusion?

I must point out the irony of not proof-reading this article and rushing it to publication. 'Ensure' vs 'assure'.

😂 yes because NO ONE remembers the years of lawsuits for fraud against these companies? Opioid epidemic of 2017 anyone

Every pharma exec should have to get the vaccine their company creates

So the pharmaindustry is saving us from the FDA ? Thought the FDA protected us from them. But realDonaldTrump for whom science is irrelevant, or even a threat, to his power wants to push a TrumpVaccine too fast. Orwell chrislhayes allinwithchris

This doesn't need to get said in a world without Trump as the President.

Pharma and trust is just like oil and water. It don’t mix.

Could they please record adverse reactions for more than 24 hours? And against true placebos, not other high dose poisons? I didn't think so. And liability? Well, one can only hope people see their true intention to poison us all.

Follow the money. If BillGates melindagates gatesfoundation has their claws in it then it should never be trusted. Look for those that were developed without the notoriously malfeasance of them and MAYBE you can find a clean and safe vaccine.

Good

1) 2) 3) STRIKE Three! I Do Love the smell of Enemy Combatants' PANIC in the morning!

A promise from pharmaceutical companies are worth...well, nothing.

They was been makes vaccines for forever. It’s safe to take. The only thing they are worried about is how Affective it is.

Lolololo.... well then!!

“Meticulously tested” is still much different than long term testing...

No, 'thanks'...

August 4, 2020 AstraZeneca Whistleblower – Big Pharma Not Responsible For Any Side Effects Of COVID-19 Vaccine | GreatGameIndia

Ah yes, pharmaceutical executives, just the trustworthy voices the people are seeking out in these uncertain times

'Indemnity for health service activity: England and Wales' Coronavirus Act 2020

22.02.2011 Supreme Court Upholds Liability Shield For Vaccine Makers : Shots - Health News : NPR

Well, good. These vaccine developers are working as fast as they can. But safety matters more than speed. We’ll get to a vaccine.

9 Pharma execs who stand to make BILLIONS from using the public to do their phase 3 testing on so Trump can claim a vaccine before the election. Hell will freeze over before I try this vaccine before seeing the side effects on the Republican herd.

Re any that use mRNA: 'The Court specifically mentioned the ability to patent a type of DNA known as complementary DNA (cDNA). This synthetic DNA is produced from the molecule that serves as the instructions for making proteins (called messenger RNA).'

“We Big Pharma Leaders, do solemnly pinky swear... “🤣 this a joke? If their vaccines hurt people, they promise to apologize?! Theater of the ABSURD. Pledge Your salaries and titles! Their vaccines are NOT ready for prime time! Inovio has only good vaccine.

If pharma companies are truly concerned about vaccine safety, they would agree to be held liable for any injuries caused by their products. Until that happens any public reassurance by company executives cannot be trusted.

How come Pharma companies can just “pledge” that they’ll be responsible and yet I have to “prove” my income for a mortgage?

They said they are good so they must be good right? Thank goodness we know now 🤣

I pledge is insufficient. We need to see the consequences of this vaccine first hand.

ridiculous anyway. they'll do whatever they can for the money.

Why no liability clause then ? Lol smh

Scientists with more common sense than our President. Imagine that.

Trust the pharma cartel?

Lol hard no bro not taking it zero long terms studies and no guarantee it works plus i dont need a vaccine for a virus that only took out 6 percent without pre morbidity nahhhhhhhhhhhhh just pharma getting rich

🤣😂🐃💩🐉🤮🐺🐷🤡 .

Another transparent dem campaign....they make everything political. there are no new surprises...its just obvious always.

Nah, we still good on accelerated vaccines

Nothing will be released unless the Democrats profit from it

So what do they normally do - test less meticulously?

Nine Drug Company CEOs Sign Pledge on Covid-19 VaccineNine drugmakers said their chief executives signed a pledge promising to not file for regulatory approval or authorization of their experimental Covid-19 vaccines until the shots have shown to work safely through late-stage clinical testing. LMAO, do we need to roll back all the times pharma companies said things were safe then pulled them off the market after they got the bejeezus sued out of them for life complicating side effects? 6 of the 9 companies are convicted felons, but let's take them at their word. Everyone deserves a fresh start. This is what they are supposed to do
