The Highwire with Del Bigtree - FDA MEMO REVEALS AT LEAST 10 CHILDREN KILLED BY COVID VACCINES

Episode Date: December 6, 2025

Jefferey unpacks a leaked FDA memo written by Dr. Vinay Prasad, head of the FDA’s Center for Biologics and Research, which revealed at least 10 child deaths linked by internal analysts to the Covid vaccine, an admission the agency has never made publicly. He exposes how career scientists quietly raised alarms, how corporate media scrambled to distort the story, and why this marks a turning point in government transparency on vaccine safety.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-highwire-with-del-bigtree--3620606/support.

We have another historic week, and we're here reporting live on the front end of this with our audience worldwide watching as the evolution of science and public health is happening right now. So I want to talk about the ASIP committee that's also happening as we speak right now in Atlanta, Georgia, at the CDC, and we're going to go into that moment. But moving into this week, into this ASIP committee, hanging over that conversation that they're having on the hepatitis B vaccine, the FDA, the Food and Drug Administration, had a memo that was leaked to the media, and it looked like this. The FDA's vaccine chief says the agency plans to tighten approval standards for COVID vaccines,

citing concerns about potential risks for children. Last week, a senior official sent out a memo linking the deaths of at least 10 children to the shot. Dr. Veney Prasad says a review of records linked 10 children's deaths to the COVID. vaccine but he did not provide data to support that claim the memo did not include the children's ages or medical history did not identify the vaccine manufacturer and these findings have not been published in a pure reviewed journal so why does dr presad say that the benefits of vaccinating children are unclear there's no science to back up that claim the american academy of pediatrics strongly recommends covid shots for children between six months and two years old while the infectious

Diseases Society of America recommends vaccine for everyone six months and older. So 10 deaths. Yeah. Ten deaths is what the CDC is now talking about. And I want to bring, I want to go into this, obviously, but bring people's attention to historic similarities. And I want to bring this chart up. This was a study by Peter McCullough and his team showing the drugs and the vaccines that were recalled and why they were recalled. And you can see there at the top, the polio vaccine, the Cutter incident. This was 1955, Cutter Laboratories.

They found that they were shipping live polio that was going into children's arms and it killed 10 kids. They pulled that in less than a year. Underneath that, the swine flu vaccine, 1976, less than a year, it killed 53 people. They pulled it. And what happened after they pulled that? Well, they ended, they literally ended the national immunization program, federal health officials. They just, they put a stop to it because of that. And so that's where the FDA is, the waters they're treading in now with at least 10, 10 deaths from the COVID vaccine in a group that was not susceptible to COVID, essentially.

That was the smallest risk factor in that group. So I want to unpack this story because there's a lot of lies out there by our friends of the corporate media. So in September of this year, you had this headline, Trump officials to link COVID shots to child deaths, alarming career scientists. And again, from the corporate media saying science is not political, every chance they get, they're beating this drum to make it political. I want to go into it says Tracy Beth Ho, one of McCarrie's top deputies, who was a critic of broad childhood coronavirus vaccination before joining the FDA has been one of the officials looking into vaccine safety data, according to five people familiar with the matter who spoke on the condition of anonymity

to describe private information. So you have some leakers there. And so she, Tracy Beth Hold, by the way, is now the director of the Center for Drug Evaluation of Research. She's a physician an epidemiologist. So this isn't some off-the-wall anti-vax Trump official. This is a career scientist. Yeah. Very strong career scientists. So at that montage on the top, they were attacking this. You saw the corporate media saying, well, Vinnie Prasad, he didn't release any type of study. There was no names. Well, he didn't do that because this was a leaked memo. This was an internal food and drug administration email that was leaked to the Washington Post. And so let's go into this email. That's amazing because they're accusing him, right, like almost like a fear mongering.

He's putting out this fear on a vaccine that we all know is great. Forget about the fact that we actually got it all wrong. We told you was 95% effective, wasn't 95% of fact of him, told you one shot and done, two shots and done, seven shots and done, 10 shots and done. We keep lying about it. I don't know how they have confidence, Jeffrey, by the way, to stand up and put children at risk. That's what these news agencies are doing when they're saying, this can't possibly be true that 10 children died. But the point is, is he didn't submit this to the press. This was an internal memo that they stole, that they went out with it. Then they scared the public with it, then said, oh, by the way, but don't listen to it. Literally creating a problem

and alleviating their own problem at the same exact time. It's such a giant pile of Ridiculousness. And Prasad did it, did everything that a normal functioning government official would do going through the appropriate chain of command and also to talk to his team, to communicate to his team. This is what's happening. This is what we found. Let's go into this memo that was leaked. And again, Vinay Prasad is the head of the Center for Biologic evaluation of research.

And remember our friend, Dr. Peter Marks, who was the previous head, who hit the data, who listen to the vaccine injured on Zoom calls and said, I'm sorry, we really can't help you, essentially. So now this is Vinay Prasad. He's speaking to his team at Siebert, and this is what he says. I'm writing. This is a heads up. I'm writing to report that OBPV, that's the Office of Biostatistics and Pharmacovigilance, career staff have found that at least 10 children have died after and because of receiving COVID-19 vaccination. These deaths are relative to vaccination, likely probable possible attribution made by staff. That number is certainly an understatement due to the underreporting and inherent bias and attribution. This safety signal has far-reaching implications for Americans,

the U.S. pandemic response and the agency itself, which I wish to discuss here. It goes on. In the summer of 2025, Dr. Hogue began investigating. Now, here he is trying to unpack the lies of the corporate media to his team. Dr. Hogue began investigating bears reports of children who had died after administration of the COVID-19 vaccine. By late summer, she had concluded that there were, in fact, deaths. A fact this agency has never publicly admitted. It goes on. Dr. Hogan organized a small meeting to discuss these deaths

with OVRR, that's the Office of Vaccine Research and Review, and again, the OBPV, stakeholders. So those are the appropriate offices to discuss this. Dr. Hogue went to these Sieber sub offices and said, Office of Vaccine Research, Office of Pharmacal Vigilance, you need to hear what has been found. She says this, the slides she presented,

email she sent and distorted firsthand reports were shared with media outlets. Some staff present who leaked, portrayed the incident as Dr. Hobb, attempting to create a false fear regarding vaccines. This is Prasad now. I then asked the Office of Biostatistics and Pharmacoviligians, which he should do, to perform a detailed analysis of deaths voluntarily reported to the VAR system. So again, he's asking Dr. Hogue found this. Now Dr. Prasad, as a leader of that organization, said, Thank you, Dr. Hogue. I'm going to ask now my team under me. I have a whole team that can look into this.

Now, they're going to do an independent study to see what you find to back this up or to debunk it. He goes on, in the full interest of balance, he asks this team to do this. The team has performed an initial analysis of 96 deaths between 2021, 2024, and concluded that no fewer than 10 are related. If anything, this represents conservative coding with vaccines are excruplated rather than indicated in cases of ambiguity. the real number is higher. This is a profound revelation for the first time the U.S. FDA will acknowledge that COVID-19 vaccines have killed American children.

Wow. This is a heads up to his team. He's saying, we are going to announce this. Prepare yourselves. We have the science. We've talked to the families. We've reached out. And again, from 2021 to 2024,

the previous, I mean, what's not being said there is the previous leaders, Dr. Peter Marks, no one cared to look, no one cared to call these families. No one cared to do anything. A new administration had to come in, and look through, look back through the data. Do these parents even know that their kids died

of the COVID shot? I don't know, but hopefully they're being, hopefully they're being contacted at this point. A lot of people representing this, by the way, is like an FDA cover up that, you know, they knew these deaths were there. Actually, my biggest question for Tracy Beth Hoag would be when you call these parents,

when you decide to look through the VERS reports and call all of the reports of children who had died, how many of them said, oh, we've already spoken to the FDA. I bet you zero. I'll bet you she was the first time they called. I mean, that's a guess, but my guess is no one in our government ever even cared to look into the Vera system for the exact reasons I just explained. Because as long as you don't do an investigation, as long as you don't do any science, you can say, to your knowledge, the vaccine is perfectly safe. This is literally ostrich through their head in the sand. It's how science is being done. And finally, we have an

administration that doesn't just take one scientist's perspective, but runs it through an entire team, the world is changing. Finally, we're watching science happen. But unfortunately, you know, what are you going to do with mainstream news that's owned by the pharmaceutical industry? Right, right. And it works both ways here. And I'm reading a lot here. I'm reading from, this is a historical document. It's a leaked memo, but this is how you want your government health agencies communicating. This is how you want them talking in back channels. So it is great that we are able to read this to the public and show what is going on, how they're speaking to to each other. So I want to go on it because it doesn't just talk about 10 deaths, which is huge,

which is bombshell, as it should be. It goes on to talk about the path forward for the Center for Biologics, the Sieber Center that Vinay Prasad is, and in general FDA. And he goes on to say this. I want to outline a path forward. Our general approach in Sieber will be to direct vaccine regulation towards evidence-based medicine. This means we will take swift action regarding this new safety concern. We will not be granting market authorization to vaccines and pregnant women based on unproven surrogate endpoints. And he goes, any prior promises will be null and void. And we will demand pre-market randomized trials assessing clinical endpoints for most new products.

Nmonea vaccine makers will have to show their products reduce pneumonia, at least in the post-marketing setting, and not merely general antibody titers. Immunogenicity will no longer be used to expand indicated populations. He says, we will revise annual flu vaccine framework, which is an evidence-based catastrophe of low quality evidence, poor surrogate assays, and uncertain vaccine effectiveness, measured in case control studies with poor methods. We will reappraise safety and be honest in vaccine labels. This is what we want in a public health organization, the FDA, the CDC. We want them talking like this. And now, will all this happen? We don't know. This is, these are his hopes,

his path forward. That has to be put into policy. Staff have to probably be hired to do this, because this is a whole new road for the FDA. But this is the hopes and dreams of Renee Prasad, his team, and I would assume much of the FDA at this point. This is the hopes and dreams of I can, of you, of me, of Aaron Siri, of Robert Kennedy Jr. I mean, I had tears in my eyes this morning when I was sitting listening to the hearings

and hearing people like Mark Blacksul, who I've stood side by side with. When you watch this happening, Jeffrey, these were statements that were always being made from outside the echo chamber, outside the castle, outside the walls. It's coming from inside the walls now. Real science, real questions, real investigations.

It's so incredible. No one believed we'd be here, Jeffrey. It's what I keep thinking all day. No one would have ever believed if we would have stated this, nine years ago when I was touring with Vaxed, that we would be here, that we would be inside the government, that we would have real scientists finally asking real questions and doing exactly what we just said.

We're no longer just going to assume safety. We're no longer going to say, oh, you have antibodies, therefore you should take the vaccine. Now, what if those antibodies have nothing to do with the circulating strain? Never again. Flu is going to have to prove it can stop the virus that's in circulation or we're not putting it out there. I mean, finally, you know, no more 10% effective vaccines given to people, injuring them, making them sick, killing grandma for no reason whatsoever. And probably increasing the risk, as we see in so many studies, four times the risk of upper respiratory illness and infections if you get the flu vaccine. So all of this, finally, finally, finally.

I just feel bad, right? I feel bad for everyone watching mainstream news that are still living in part of the lie. Don't realize that there's like a $19 trillion incentive to lie to you. They're missing some of the biggest stories of really the century when it comes to public health because this evolution is real, it's happening,

and you can see other states having formed a Western or Eastern vaccine alliance, now Illinois jumping in there with his governor, that they're sticking to the COVID shot for all children, all infants, six months or older. So they're ignoring literally almost six years of new science on the COVID shot now, including deaths and the children.
