BREAKING: In a major blow to vaccine efforts, senior FDA leaders stepping down
Two of the FDA’s most senior vaccine leaders are exiting from their positions, raising fresh questions about the Biden administration and the way that it’s sidelined the FDA.
Marion Gruber, director of the FDA’s Office of Vaccines Research & Review and 32-year veteran of the agency, will leave at the end of October, and OVRR deputy director Phil Krause, who’s been at FDA for more than a decade, will leave in November. The news, first reported by BioCentury, is a massive blow to confidence in the agency’s ability to regulate vaccines.
The bombshell announcement comes at a particularly crucial moment, as boosters and children’s shots are being weighed by the regulator. The departures also come as the administration has recently jumped ahead of the FDA’s reviews of booster shots, announcing that they might be available by the week of Sept. 20.
A former senior FDA leader told Endpoints that they’re departing because they’re frustrated that CDC and their ACIP committee are involved in decisions that they think should be up to the FDA. The former FDAer also said he’s heard they’re upset with CBER director Peter Marks for not insisting that those decisions should be kept inside FDA. What finally did it for them was the White House getting ahead of FDA on booster shots.
FDA’s former acting chief scientist Luciana Borio added on Twitter, “FDA is losing two giants who helped bring us many safe and effective vaccines over decades of public service.”
“These two are the leaders for Biologic (vaccine) review in the US. They have a great team, but these two are the true leaders of CBER. A huge global loss if they both leave,” Former BARDA director Rick Bright wrote, weighing in on the news. “Dr. Gruber is much more than the Director. She is a global leader. Visionary mastermind behind global clinical regulatory science for flu, Ebola, Mers, Zika, Sars-cov-2, many others.”
In a letter from Marks to staff, he explained:

Getting out one step ahead of the posse...?
Wonder if that means some really, really bad vaxx-related chickens are about to come home to roost.
They’re quitting because the vax is so awesome and will cure every disease ever.
Mission Accomplished!
Let me know when Fraudxi resigns. Otherwise, *SPIT*
That’s what I’m thinking.
We’re going to live forever! Thanks to this awesome vaccine!
Yup—This is like when Senior Execs of a company bail—weeks before it admits that it lied to shareholders in its Ponzi scheme financial statements.
I laying heavy money on that... the bleep is about to really hit the fan.
first ones to break and testify get the best deals...
I wonder if this has anything to do with that truck accident in WV a few days ago, the one carrying Moderna vaccine...
Maybe they were watching historical documentaries on Mussolini.
>Wonder if that means some really, really bad vaxx-related chickens are about to come home to roost.
The numbers on the vaxxed getting sick are bound to increase.

Or the 1.6M doses of Moderna that Japan just tossed in the trash because they were filled with mysterious metallic metal shards.
Moving to non-extradition countries by chance?
The trains were always on time.
It was and continues to be all a big scam

Is Moderna the vaccine that was developed by them, but produced by someone else due to manufacturing reasons?
