WEST PALM BEACH, FL – Today, Governor Ron DeSantis held a “Public Health Integrity Committee” live roundtable conference with medical professionals and vaccine injured citizens and announced that the State of Florida is impaneling a grand jury to review evidence to hold COVID-19 injection manufacturers accountable under Florida law.

Governor DeSantis stated, “Today, I’m announcing a petition with the Supreme Court of Florida to impanel a statewide grand jury to investigate any and all wrongdoing in Florida with respect to the COVID-19 vaccines. We anticipate that we will get approval for that. And that will come with legal processes that will be able to get more information to bring legal accountability to those who committed misconduct.”

 “In Florida, it is against the law to mislead and to misrepresent, particularly when you're talking about the efficacy of a drug,” DeSantis said.

Florida’s Surgeon General, Dr. Joseph Ladapo, also announced that Florida will be increasing surveillance regarding scientific dishonesty and media dishonesty. As Dr. Ladapo discussed the pharmaceutical companies’ unethical relationship with the media, he said, “Our media has clearly demonstrated that it is impossible to accurately report on something when you are taking money from that same something.”

Dr. Ladapo referred to a recent study done from a German university that performed autopsies on individuals who died suddenly within a few weeks of receiving a COVID-19 shot. It revealed that four out of 35 people who had died suddenly had myocarditis that was specifically attributed to the mRNA shot.

Ladapo stated, “It’s important to note that all of these people died suddenly at home and these people are not counted in the estimates that the CDC likes to pretend are accurate. We will be studying the incidents of myocarditis within a few weeks of COVID-19 vaccination for people who died. This is going to be a surveillance study with some of our medical examiners in Florida and researchers from the University of Florida. We will answer this question that probably keeps the CEOs of Pfizer and Moderna awake at night.”

DeSantis and Ladapo were joined by a panel of experts, including: Jay Bhattacharya, Professor of Medicine at Stanford University; Tracy Høeg, an epidemiologist and clinical researcher; Dr. Joseph Fraiman, Emergency Medicine Physician in New Orleans; Steve Templeton, Associate Professor of Microbiology & Immunology at Indiana University; Bret Weinstein, a public intellectual and former professor of evolutionary biology; Christine Stabell Benn, Professor in Global Health at the University of Southern Denmark and Martin Kulldorff, a biostatistician, epidemiologist and former professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School.

Liberty Counsel Founder and Chairman Mat Staver said: “It is past time to hold pharmaceutical companies accountable for the harm caused by their profit-making vaccines, especially when they withhold and misrepresent relevant data that the public has a right to know. Congress should repeal the liability protection for vaccines passed in 1986. If vaccine companies were held to the same standards of liability that drug manufacturers must shoulder, the COVID-19 shots would have ended months ago. Vaccines are all profit and no accountability, and that must change. Thankfully, Gov. Ron DeSantis will convene a grand jury to investigate the biggest vaccine fraud in history.”
