An FDA spokesperson told The Epoch Times in an email that the agency “has chosen to resolve this lawsuit rather than continuing to litigate over statements that are between two and nearly four years old.”
Unbelievable. The sheer arrogance here. Even after a result like this they still cannot admit they were wrong.
No, it just would've looked that much worse if you had lost in court, almost like a massive loss in faith in the FDA (And another large blow against government agency credibility as a whole) would have followed.
A quiet settlement involving only retraction (without even a fucking apology) is way too good a result for the FDA after such a lawsuit. They (the plaintiffs) really needed to ensure such a thing would never happen again, at least not without them feeling the pain from this. It was a bunch of doctors, they should have been able to afford it.
Extremely limpwristed. The idea that this or any such case was ever about the FDA's freedom to keep old social media posts online is a joke and they know it, which is why the FDA now spin it as exactly that. The settlement allows them to limit it to that. But how can there be no damages or punishment inherent in the idea of FDA posting misleading medical information?
I've been sceptical of FLCCC for a little while now. Pierre Kory is a bit flakey. FLCCC advice on blood oxygen levels during covid prompted Scott Schara to bring his daughter to hospital where she was later killed under their Midazolam and Fentanyl based covid protocols. I wouldn't necessarily ascribe FLCCC's part in this this to bad faith - any more than I would accuse JJ Couey in the clip of bad faith, despite the fact he's equally flakey sometimes - but there's a lot of flakes around. ICAN and CHD seem more reliable than FLCCC for institutional change. Your own judgement and resistance is more reliable than anything.
