(TNND) — The Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations is set to hold its first hearing about the negative side effects of the COVID-19 vaccine. The committee issued a subpoena to the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) for records related to COVID-19 vaccine safety data and pandemic communications.
The hearing will feature six witnesses discussing the negative side effects of the vaccines and communication flaws under the Biden administration.
The witnesses include Jordan Vaughn, M.D., Founder and President of The Microvascular Research Foundation; Peter McCullough, M.D., President of the McCullough Foundation; James Thorp, M.D., an Obstetrician and Gynecologist Maternal Fetal Medicine Specialist; Joel Wallskog, M.D., Co-Chairman of React 19; Aaron Siri, Managing Partner at Siri & Glimstad, L.L.P.; and the Honorable Josh Green, M.D., Governor of Hawaii.
Full Measure host Sharyl Attkisson was joined by a panel of experts, including Dr. Vaughn, back in 2023, where they discussed emerging research and treatments related to COVID-19 and COVID-19 vaccines.
Looking further into Wednesday’s hearing, the subpoena was issued on January 28, 2025, by U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson, chairman of the committee, and marks the culmination of a prolonged effort to obtain unredacted records and data regarding the COVID-19 pandemic and the safety and efficacy of vaccines.
For years, Johnson said he’s faced resistance from the Biden administration, with many of his more than 70 oversight letters either ignored or inadequately addressed. Under a new administration and HHS secretary, the department has begun producing records in response to the subpoena, which Johnson argues should have been provided to Congress and the public without redactions years ago.
The interim report released by Johnson highlights records reviewed by the Subcommittee concerning HHS’s awareness and response to myocarditis cases following COVID-19 vaccination. Some documents have been partially released over the years through Freedom of Information Act requests, while others have remained hidden despite Johnson’s efforts.
In conjunction with the report, Johnson is releasing 2,473 pages of records obtained through the subpoena, which he claims contain evidence of the Biden administration’s obstruction in providing crucial health information.
