Sen. Johnson Demands HHS Produce Records Linking Children’s Deaths to COVID-19 Vaccines

Sen. Johnson Demands HHS Produce Records Linking Children-s Deaths to COVID-19 Vaccines WASHINGTON - On Monday, U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), Chairman of the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, wrote to Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. requesting records indicating that at least 10 children died "after and because of receiving COVID-19 vaccination." The requested records are connected to a Nov. 28, 2025 memo reportedly written by Dr. Vinay Prasad, the Chief Medical Officer and Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) Director at the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). In the memo, Dr. Prasad stated, "[f]or the first time, the US FDA will acknowledge that COVID-19 vaccines have killed American children." "The memo outlined the Biden Administration-s failure to fully investigate the safety of the vaccines, including the risks of myocarditis," Chairman Johnson wrote. "Although Dr. Prasad-s leaked memo did receive some limited media coverage, it did not receive anywhere near the attention it should have. As a result, the American public remains largely unaware of what should be a blockbuster revelation. Hopefully, the documents HHS will provide in response to this oversight request will garner the public attention they deserve," Chairman Johnson concluded. In addition to requesting documents linked to Dr. Prasad-s memo, the chairman also reiterated his outstanding requests for information relating to the Biden Administration-s last-minute four-year extension of liability protections for COVID-19 vaccines. Chairman Johnson asked Secretary Kennedy to explain "what steps HHS has taken to examine whether the existing liability shield for COVID-19 vaccines should remain in place."
