Strange things are happening around anti-Covid vaccines. The latest news is that AstraZeneca has requested and obtained the withdrawal of its vaccine produced by the European Union. In short, Vaxzevria can no longer be used in Europe, and – from what we learn – in the short term it will also be withdrawn in Great Britain and other countries where it is currently in use. The reason is linked to a sharp drop in demand and a greater availability of serums for the new variants. In recent weeks the same multinational, before an English judge where compensation for vaccine damage was being discussed, had admitted that its side effects can also cause fatal thrombosis. Hundreds of legal actions are also open in other courts following permanent damage, if not even the death of the vaccinated person. Was there a connection?

In Italy, for example, five people are under investigation following the death of Camilla Canepa, 18, which occurred sixteen days after the administration took place during the open days. AstraZeneca’s decision comes after a turbulent period on the front of adverse reactions, situations on which in Italy it is difficult to open a debate both at a scientific and political level: we are stuck with announcements of commissions of inquiry and other types of ad hoc tables . I repeat, we are only at the announcements. Or to the consideration that those injured by vaccines are absolutely fewer than the lives saved; from here I ask: then if there are so few why so many problems in compensating for the damage instead of when it’s good – mere compensation? Something is moving in public opinion. In recent days, in fact, in the Corriere della Sera the writer Susanna Tamaro signed two very harsh and well-detailed pages on the absence of debate and the lack of reflection on the effects produced by the “civil war” (as she herself defined that period) unleashed during the pandemic and the vaccination campaign.

«You are anti-vax», is dismissed with colossal imprecision: those injured by vaccines cannot be «anti-vax», it seems obvious to me. Following that writing, apart from the insults of the usual Burioni, nothing has moved, as if Italy were still stiffened by the fear of saying publicly what is no longer difficult to admit in private, namely that there are too many cases of acquaintances harmed by mandatory doses. And Pfizer? Is it possible that only AstraZeneca made such a drastic decision? Regarding Pfizer it must be said that the complaints do not only concern the damage caused by the vaccine but also the shadows and silences regarding the negotiation with the European Commission. Why did the messages between President Von Der Leyen and the CEO of the multinational, Albert Bourla, disappear? Why so much secrecy despite requests for access to documents promoted both within the European Parliament and by important newspapers, including the German Bill and the American New York Times? And why did the CEO of Pfizer Bourla twice refuse to be heard in the European Parliament? At the moment it is not known whether in the folds of such secrecy there were issues related not only to the price of the vaccine doses (the sale of which generated record profits) but also to possible adverse reactions; however, the deposition of Pfizer’s sales manager Janine Small is on record (October 2022), before the European Parliament, according to which their anti-Covid vaccine, the most widespread in the Western world, “has not been tested to prevent infection”, also because “no one asked us” and in any case “there was no time”.
