DNA Contamination Study — Conducted at FDA Lab by Students Supervised by FDA Scientists — ‘Doesn’t Belong to FDA’ Agency Says

"The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has responded to a peer-reviewed study conducted within its own laboratory, which uncovered excessively high levels of DNA contamination in Pfizer’s mRNA COVID-19 vaccine.

The study revealed that residual DNA levels exceeded regulatory limits by six to 470 times, validating earlier studies from independent researchers that the FDA had previously disregarded.

Published by students in the Journal of High School Science, the study has garnered significant attention since the story broke...

FDA's response

... A spokesperson stated that the study 'does not belong to the FDA' and is therefore not theirs to disclose...

The agency also refused to address the involvement of three of its own scientists... who supervised the students conducting the study.

When questioned about potential regulatory actions, such as issuing a public alert, recalling affected vaccine batches, or notifying other agencies, the FDA stood firm in its defense of mRNA vaccine safety.

Calls for accountability

... The FDA’s response has provoked sharp criticism from scientists.

The stakes could not be higher

As calls for accountability grow louder, the FDA faces mounting pressure to engage with the scientific evidence — particularly that which originates from its own laboratory."
