WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, America First Legal (AFL) released the latest set of documents obtained from litigation against the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). These documents reveal further evidence of collusion between the CDC and social media companies to censor free speech under the government’s label of “misinformation” and shape public narratives.
The latest tranche of documents shows how the CDC worked with Facebook to control what information was being pushed to the public with regards to the COVID-19 vaccine. In an email chain between Facebook and CDC titled “CDC approval requested: FAQ Content,” Facebook sent draft content to CDC for approval.
In an email exchange, Genelle Adrien at Facebook emailed Carol Crawford at the CDC and asked for approval of a “FAQ Content” section for Facebook’s “COVID-19 Information Center.”
Notably, this is the same Carol Crawford who discussed using Twitter’s secretive “Partner Support Portal” to remove content online.
The proposed FAQs were specifically about the side effects of the COVID-19 vaccine.
The CDC responded by making a few changes and asked to remove a line that stated, “More serious side effects are extremely rare. A person is far more likely to be seriously harmed by a disease than by its vaccine.”
As Crawford noted, the CDC did not have “any cleared language, as far as I know, to support the second and third sentences.” Despite this, Biden Administration officials and the President himself tirelessly promoted the vaccine. In December 2021, President Biden even stated, “For unvaccinated, we are looking at a winter of severe illness and death — if you’re unvaccinated — for themselves, their families, and the hospitals they’ll soon overwhelm.”
The CDC thereby appears to have admitted that in May of 2021, months after the vaccine had already been rolled out, they could not confirm that the vaccine was safer than contracting COVID-19 itself and developing natural immunity. Nonetheless, the CDC continued to push the American people to take the vaccine.
