A newly released staff interim report from the U.S. Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations alleges that federal health officials knowingly ignored advanced data-mining tools that detected early safety signals for COVID-19 vaccines. The report details how officials chose to maintain an outdated tracking system out of concern that the new data might fuel vaccine hesitancy and disrupt federal injection mandates.
Key Findings
The report draws on 11 million pages of internal Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) documents to argue that the government prioritized public compliance over transparency as early as the spring of 2021. A senior FDA scientist was ordered to stop her independent analysis after her modified algorithms uncovered previously hidden safety signals, including cardiac events and strokes.
The report emphasizes that health officials were fully aware of the mathematical flaws in their data system but chose not to fix them. Instead, they opted to maintain the outdated system, which effectively masked specific safety patterns due to the sheer mass of data from the COVID-19 rollout.
Senator Ron Johnson has sharply criticized both the federal response and the subsequent lack of media coverage regarding the subcommittee’s investigation. Cumulative worldwide data in the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) shows 1,676,100 adverse events and 39,099 deaths associated with the COVID-19 injections.
