Johnson also posted a Majority Staff Interim Report by the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations which details how "Biden health officials purposely turned a blind eye toward COVID-19 vaccine safety signals." The report also references cases of "'Death and sudden death' associated with the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines."
While Fox News covered Johnson's report on May 3, it did not, at the time of writing, accept his offer to follow up on the coverage with his op-ed.
Johnson noted NBC, ABC, PBS, CNN, and MS NOW likewise all refused to cover his report.
Johnson also notes Peter Marks, the former director of the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER), an FDA center which approves vaccines and is responsible for safety surveillance, was briefed that an algorithm used to analyze Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System data would "mask" or cover up adverse events. Johnson alleges the team at CBER received data for over three months pointing to the danger of the COVID-19 vaccine.
Rather than spreading awareness and informing the public, Johnson alleges "they ordered the data analyst to 'cease and desist' and then lied to the American public that 'they weren't seeing safety signals.'"
"I consider this to be the biggest government scandal in my lifetime, and one that is crying out for full media attention and coverage," Johnson writes in the op-ed. "Currently, VAERS shows 1,676,100 cumulative worldwide adverse events and 39,099 deaths associated with the COVID-19 injection, with 9,332 (24%) of the deaths occurring within 2 days of injection."
