For at least two years, CDC claimed that “After the body produces an immune response, it discards all of the [COVID-19] vaccine ingredients, just as it would discard any substance that cells no longer need.” ICAN’s attorneys challenged CDC to support this claim with facts. Here’s what we found.
In its overwhelming zeal to promote the novel mRNA COVID-19 vaccines as “safe and effective” at all costs, CDC made many dubious claims on its website. One of those claims on its “Overview of COVID-19 Vaccines” webpage confidently asserted as late as July 2024 that “The mRNA from the vaccines is broken down within a few days after vaccination and discarded from the body.”
This statement came as quite a surprise to ICAN, since multiple studies (published while CDC still had this claim on its site) have shown that the spike protein can linger for months, if not years, in some vaccinated people. In fact, a Yale preprint study showed that the spike protein could persist for up to 709 days!
Even before the Yale study was published, ICAN’s legal team sent a FOIA request to CDC asking it for all evidence relied upon to make the claim that the body “discards all of the vaccine ingredients.” Our regular readers will not be shocked to hear that CDC responded saying a search of their records “failed to reveal any documents pertaining to your request.” Considering the seriousness of this claim—and how many Americans it affected—it is positively outrageous that no records could be found! This is especially egregious in the face of contrary, published studies that showed CDC’s claim was blatantly inaccurate.
Stay tuned for more segments of “No Records Found” as ICAN continues to demand proof for claims made by our public health authorities. If you haven’t yet, be sure to read Segment 1 and Segment 2, where we challenged other CDC claims regarding COVID-19 vaccines and CDC was unable to produce any documentation to support its claims.
