Huh any info about why they’ve requested this? The article doesn’t go into very much detail

But then why pull authorisation?
Is this some kind of patent thing where they “destroy” it before it becomes public domain?

They recently admitted in court filing that their VAX does in fact have side effects. Presumably related to this.
They also covered these risks when bringing VAX to market.
We really need to find who did this and serve them some rope.

If you’re going to advocate murdering people, you could at least make a token effort to be factually correct about why.

Does it matter what they admit? There companies always wait for many years to admit anything. By then the damage is done.
Of course one could argue that is everyone would vaccinate, almost everyone would be better off, except people with side effects. But I can absolutely understand why people don’t want to risk being that person getting side effects. There is no help to be had if you are that person.
