U.S. House Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) reported today that she has been blocked on Twitter by vaccine maker Pfizer.
Today, the pharmacutecal corporation’s CEO Albert Bourla called those spreading “misinformation” about COVID-19 vaccines “criminals” who have cost “millions of lives.”
Greene tweeted a screenshot of the block and said, “Just found out I’m blocked by Pfizer. How incredibly childish. If Pfizer can block people then we can block their vaccines.”

How incredibly childish.
If Pfizer can block people then we can block their vaccines. 🙅♀️ pic.twitter.com/Rl03d5cNc7
At an event hosted by the Washington, D.C. think tank, Bourla told Atlantic Council CEO Frederick Kempe “Those people are criminals. They’re not bad people. They’re criminals because they have literally cost millions of lives.”
Bourla added that he hopes life for most people can go “back to normal” once the unvaccinated get vaccinated and that “The only thing that stands between the new way of life and the current way of life is, frankly, hesitancy to vaccinations.”
Additionally, Bourla accused those who spread “misinformation” of doing so to profit from it, although his company of course makes money from the vaccine.
Pfizer’s most recent tweet includes a cartoon suggesting that “Science” is there to pull “The human brain” away from “Wild conspiracy theories.”
“It’s easy to get distracted by misinformation these days, but don’t worry…Science has got your back,” Pfizer said in the tweet.
Pfizer blocked replies on the tweet, however, apparently not wanting any “Wild conspiracy theories” to be posted.

In August, Greene was suspended for seven days from Twitter after she tweeted that “vaccines are failing and do not reduce the spread of the virus and neither do masks.”
