US EditionUS House committee subpoenas former Pfizer executive over alleged COVID vaccine delay
- On June 30, 2025, the House Judiciary Committee subpoenaed Dr. Philip Dormitzer, former Pfizer vaccine R&D head, to testify about alleged vaccine delay claims.
- The subpoena follows allegations that Pfizer deliberately slowed clinical testing to postpone announcing vaccine effectiveness until after the 2020 presidential election.
- Dormitzer rejected claims of intentional delay, emphasizing that he and his Pfizer team took every possible step to secure the FDA’s Emergency Use Authorization as quickly as they could.
- Pfizer announced its vaccine efficacy on November 18, 2020, about 15 days after the election, while CEO Albert Bourla said the timing was not politically motivated.
- Dormitzer's subpoenaed testimony may influence oversight and potential legislative reforms regarding vaccine development transparency and election-related allegations.
