Texas Attor­ney Gen­er­al Ken Pax­ton Con­tin­ues Law­suit Against Pfiz­er for Know­ing­ly Mis­rep­re­sent­ing the Effi­ca­cy of the COVID-19 Vaccine. By Press Release (01/08/25)

Pfizer repeatedly and knowingly misrepresented the effectiveness and safety of their COVID-19 vaccine and pressured Americans to take the shot without full knowledge of the risks. When consumers questioned the effectiveness and safety of the vaccine, Pfizer sought to silence them—prioritizing profits over the truth. I will not stop until Pfizer is held accountable for deceptively pushing its COVID-19 vaccine on consumers. 

—Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton

Attorney General Ken Paxton will appeal a federal district court’s dismissal and continue his lawsuit against Pfizer, Inc., for its unlawful misrepresentations concerning the COVID-19 vaccine.

In December 2024, a federal district judge dismissed the lawsuit, claiming that Pfizer had immunity through the federal government’s Public Readiness and Emergency Act (PREP). AG Paxton is appealing this ruling!
