The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) collaborated with Facebook to censor questions about the safety of the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) injections, according to emails recently made public.
The emails were part of the latest set of documents obtained by America First Legal (AFL) via litigation against the public health agency. These documents reveal further evidence of collusion between the CDC and social media companies to stiffen free speech under the government’s label of “misinformation” and twist and shape the public narratives.
The documents released by AFL shows how the CDC worked with the social media platform, referencing in particular an email chain between the agency and Facebook. The platform owned by Mark Zuckerberg sent draft content to the CDC for approval. (Related: The censorship boomerang.)
In the exchange, Facebook’s Genelle Adrien emailed CDC Digital Media Director Carol Crawford asking for approval of an “FAQ Content” section on Facebook’s “COVID-19 Information Center. The information centered on the side effects of the COVID-19 vaccine.
“Of concern to Adrien was particularly what the platform’s users should be allowed to say about the vaccine’s side effects. And CDC provided that guidance – some words were replaced, and other sentences were removed,” LifeSiteNews wrote.
Crawford responded by making a few changes to the content. The “joint pain” originally listed as a side effect was gone, replaced with “nausea.”
She also 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.” According to the CDC official, the public health agency didn’t have “any cleared language to support” the statements.
According to the pro-life news outlet, “trying to refute collusive practices involving major social media companies is probably not high on the agenda of the U.S. government right this moment. Nevertheless, the evidence of the highly controversial practice keeps rolling in.”
The CDC thereby appears to have admitted that in May 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.
There are various ways to interpret this decision, but one is that the CDC by proxy, as Facebook’s guidance adviser, may have wished to avoid the risk of getting sued. Alas, it did get sued by AFL – but for colluding with Facebook.
Even though the original language was fairly “soft” – if anything, the social platform looked keen to minimize any serious side effects, and promote the vaccines – it was too much for CDC to stand behind.
Despite this admission, the Biden administration continued to urge people to get injected with the COVID-19 vaccine throughout the year. Even President Joe Biden himself joined in the calls, warning that unvaccinated people would “soon overwhelm hospitals” with “a winter of severe illness and death” up ahead.
“For [the] 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 chief executive said at the time.
