NIH Director Dr.
Jay Bhattacharya has sharply criticized Anthony Fauci for privately acknowledging potential miscarriage risks from COVID-19 vaccines in early 2021 while publicly assuring pregnant women that the shots were safe.
According to Gateway Pundit, newly disclosed text messages from Faucis government-issued phone, released by Senators Ron Johnson and Rand Paul, reveal that in January 2021 the thenNIAID chief warned colleagues that the cytokine storm and fever triggered by the second mRNA dose theoretically could be associated with miscarriage in the 1st trimester. Yet only days later, Fauci appeared on a JAMA livestream and told the public that the FDA had identified thus far no red flags for pregnant women, a stark contrast between his private caution and his public messaging.
Bhattacharya, who now leads the NIH, reacted forcefully to the revelations and to the long-scrutinized early CDC V-safe data, arguing that Tony Fauci was OUT OF HIS LANE, and used that power to tell America one thing when he really thought another. For Americans who were told to trust the science, the notion that a top health official may have downplayed concerns about pregnancy risks raises serious questions about honesty and accountability in the federal health bureaucracy.
Im glad his words now can be heard by the American people its SHOCKING to me that he was sharing private thoughts and that, when he was out in publicand he was out in the public A LOThe didnt share those private thoughts with the American public, Bhattacharya said. He further stressed that Fauci was a major figure in trying to get those COVID shots off and owed the American public some transparency regarding his honest thoughts.
The controversy is intensified by a closer look at the June 2021 New England Journal of Medicine study on early V-safe data, which initially reported 827 completed pregnancies with 104 ending in spontaneous abortion. However, 700 of those women received the vaccine in the third trimester, well past the period when most miscarriages occur, meaning the headline numbers obscured the real risk window.
When the analysis is limited to the 127 women vaccinated in the first or second trimester, the miscarriage rate spikes to roughly 82%, a figure that would have alarmed many expectant mothers had it been clearly communicated. Fauci and the broader public-health establishment spent years insisting the shots were safe for pregnant women, aggressively promoting vaccination and branding dissent as misinformation, leaving many Americans to wonder whether ideology and political pressure trumped informed consent and genuine transparency.
