“They Never Told the Public”: Biden Concealed Fact FDA Doctors Linked Child Deaths to Covid Shots

(WND)—From a stunning report that confirms, again, skeptics’ concerns over the deadly impact of the COVID-19 shots created by pharmaceutical companies and sold for billions of dollars to the American government during the pandemic, it’s known that federal officials linked those shots to child deaths at the time – and the Biden administration kept it a secret.

Investigative journalist Catherine Herridge has reported online the Joe Biden administration “suppressed” details about COVID shot pediatric deaths as well as the total death count.

She cited a study done on children who died, of which a number died of the effects “possibly” or “probably” related to the COVID shots.

A RedState commentary by Ben Smith elaborated.

“While the Biden administration was telling parents the COVID vaccines were safe for their children, its own FDA (Food and Drug Administration) doctors were quietly reviewing files on 96 dead kids and concluding that some of them had probably been killed by the shots.”

He said, “They wrote it up. They classified it as new safety information under federal law. And they never told the public.”

It was Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., who released records this week of the situation. Along with documentation of the problem, he told Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. that FDA officials at the time were given details of a new algorithm that included dozens of “safety signals” for serious adverse events, ncluding sudden cardiac death, pulmonary infarction and more.

But “instead of alerting the public, FDA decided to continue to use the old algorithm that they knew hid safety signals. That algorithm allowed them to insist they weren’t seeing safety signals for serious adverse events, and that the adverse events they did observe were generally described as rare and mild. They could be confident they would never find what they weren’t looking for.”

The letter from Johnson pointed out that there were 1,675,590 reports of adverse events from the shots, including 39,077 deaths, of which 9,329 happened “within 2 days of vaccination.”

Smith’s report said of the evidence, “The key document is a December 5, 2025, FDA memorandum. It covers 96 pediatric deaths following COVID-19 vaccination reported to VAERS, the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, a federal database where patients and doctors report side effects following vaccination. FDA medical officers reviewed every case, including autopsy reports, death certificates, and medical records, and classified seven as ‘possibly’ or ‘probably’ related to the vaccine. Five of those seven deaths involved myocarditis.”

Those fatal cases actually were “new safety information” under federal law, but the report said it never was added to the shots’ labels. “Not while the Biden administration was mandating the shots. Not while it was pressuring parents. Not while it was dismissing anyone who raised concerns as an anti-vaxxer.”

The children were mostly boys, ages 7-16. “Every death occurred between 2021 and 2022, the height of the government’s vaccination campaign targeting children. All seven probable and possible cases involved the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine. These were not statistics. These were children with autopsy reports and death certificates that FDA doctors reviewed, flagged, and quietly shelved,” Smith explained.

Further, he noted, “Those 96 deaths are almost certainly a fraction of the real toll. An HHS-commissioned Harvard study found that fewer than one percent of vaccine adverse events are ever reported to VAERS.”

He also confirmed that the patients treated from injuries from COVID shots “were allegedly told to stay quiet, promised that a study would eventually be published acknowledging what had happened to them. That study was never published. Their injuries were never officially acknowledged.”

Now Johnson is demanding records on pediatric vaccine deaths.

Smith noted, “These are not outside critics reading spreadsheets. These are the FDA’s own doctors, in the FDA’s own files, concluding that children probably died from vaccines the government was mandating for school attendance, pushing on military families, and pressuring parents to accept under threat of being called dangerous extremists.”
