FBI Investigating The Destruction of 500 Doses Of The Moderna Vaccine

We have been discussing curious Covid-related offenses this year, but a Wisconsin controversy raises a particularly challenging such question.  Advocate Aurora Health has admitted that an employee intentionally removed 57 vials of the Moderna vaccine from refrigeration.  The intentional act, originally claimed to be accidental, resulted in the destruction of 500 doses of the potentially life-saying vaccine. Advocate Aurora Health said the employee was fired. However, an intentional destruction of the doses would seem the ultimate product tampering case: either compromised vaccines would be given patients or 500 people will have to wait longer for the protection from Covid-19.

The FBI is reportedly investigating the incident.  This would seem a serious offense in the midst of a pandemic.

The Justice Department has been investigating fraudulent Covid-19 vaccines or treatments.  This is effective destruction of real vaccine. It is unclear whether it would be investigated as tampering. Section 1365 states:

(a)Whoever, with reckless disregard for the risk that another person will be placed in danger of death or bodily injury and under circumstances manifesting extreme indifference to such risk, tampers with any consumer product that affects interstate or foreign commerce, or the labeling of, or container for, any such product, or attempts to do so, shall—(1) in the case of an attempt, be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; (2) if death of an individual results, be fined under this title or imprisoned for any term of years or for life, or both; (3) if serious bodily injury to any individual results, be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both; and (4) in any other case, be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both.

(b) Whoever, with intent to cause serious injury to the business of any person, taints any consumer product or renders materially false or misleading the labeling of, or container for, a consumer product, if such consumer product affects interstate or foreign commerce, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.

Both section might apply to this circumstance.
This is a case where criminal prosecution would be the only effective deterrent. It is difficult for individuals to sue such defendants (or the hospital) due to the risk of contracting Covid-19 or even those who did contract the virus while waiting.  We have recent negligence cases, including mistakingly giving a Covid treatment rather than the vaccine.  Such errors are easier to address in civil litigation.
One of the issues for the FBI will be whether the individual disclosed the tampering or was willing to have the compromised vaccine administered to patients.  Even with such disclosure, however, there are 500 people who will have to wait longer for a vaccine in the midst of a national pandemic.

  1. keep in mind the FBI sent 15 FBI agents to investigate a rope hanging from a NASCAR garage door.

    BUT ZERO agents were sent to investigate all the claims of voter fraud and fraudulent election affidavits.

  3. FBI investigating?

    Not really. Just trying to claim credit and look less useless. Local officials have already figured it out.

    Meanwhile, there must be some knotted door-pull ropes 15 or 20 agents can protect us from.

  5. Give them a medal. They probably saved lives. Why would anyone be vaccinated against a “virus” with a 99.7% recovery rate that has never even been isolated?

    1. We have a civic duty to be vaccinated to protect others and help achieve herd immunity. Can you find crackpots who will tell you it’s a plot or the vaccines are more dangerous than the virus? I’m sure you can, but you owe it to yourself and others to objectively and intelligently weigh the facts.

      During WWII Americans were asked to sacrifice for the common good against a common enemy and mostly did.

      During the Revolutionary War a small pox epidemic broke out and Washington enforced quarantines among troops and civilians.

      Do your part.

    2. The coronavirus is the leading cause of death in the US right now, and you’re wondering why anyone would want to be vaccinated against it?

      What a hateful person you must be not to care about the hundreds of thousands of people who’ve died from it, and more to come in the next several months.

      Not only has the virus been isolated, they sequenced its RNA months ago.

      1. Forum members apparently see you as a pox to this community and yet you remain virulently dry humping anyone who comments on these pages.

    Iran to Get Pfizer Vaccine From U.S.
    Iran’s Red Crescent Society said it’ll take delivery of a batch of coronavirus vaccine developed by Pfizer Inc. and BioNTech SE within three weeks.

    Some 150,000 shots of the vaccine will be sent to Iran “in collaboration with a group of philanthropists in the United States,” the organization’s director, Karim Hemmati, was quoted as saying by the semi-official Tasnim news agency. It didn’t provide further details.

    “Moderna vaccine”

    Moderna is not a vaccine, it’s an “Experimental” mRNA ” Mutagentic” & according to the head scientist for the WHO came out recently & said it’s completely unknown if it will offer any protection against commie Covid 19 & also unknown what the short & long term side effects will be.

    These types of Human Experiments are illegal under the Nuremberg Code, US & International Law. (Dr Francis Boyle)

  20. Person needs to be charged with something – if tampering is the best fit, then so be it. Despicable
