Something odd happened Thursday. Both Pfizer and Moderna closed comments on their Twitter accounts, allowing only those who they follow or who are mentioned in the Tweets to reply. A quick glance at Pfizer’s most recent post may point to the reason why:
Vaccines are one of modern medicine’s greatest success stories, having eradicated smallpox, nearly eliminated polio, and reduced other diseases to record low numbers of infections. What exactly do they do? https://t.co/HBdu89UQRD pic.twitter.com/FLw20vHvrp

Many of the top comments that made it through before Pfizer shut them down referenced the bombshell Project Veritas video of an executive claiming “directed evolution” of Covid-19.

Hi there @pink @questlove @MichaelPhelps @charlieputh and @jamieleecurtis – didn’t this company just pay you all to promote their #knowplango campaign? Seems like @pfizer has some explaining to do. Care to denounce your partnership with them? Let us know pic.twitter.com/G9mfyaQaVA

You were busted planning for gain-of-function new viruses, to juice the vaccine market.
You undermined public trust in vaccines at levels unimaginable a decade ago.@AlbertBourla should step down and you should start over.
Nice ratio, btw. That should tell you a lot. pic.twitter.com/2CBeMzErXU

As one might expect, the damning replies received more likes and retweets than the original post.
That would explain Pfizer, but why Moderna? Their most recent post is essentially a job listing but the comments are closed:
At Moderna, we are changing how #medicines are created and delivered –and giving you the opportunity to change more than just your career. Find your new opportunity at Moderna: https://t.co/JMKexufWPF #WeAreHiring pic.twitter.com/xtQYX4pnUL

It’s time to ramp up the heat on Big Pharma. They’ve done enough damage and made enough profits to last everyone a lifetime.
