According to the response to the query, the scandalous procurement was once again made via the EU, the contents of the contract and prices are confidential

Vienna (OTS) – “Black-Green and Health Minister Rauch bought 25,000 doses of vaccine against the monkeypox virus at taxpayer expense, although not a single infection has been detected in Austria since November 2022. This bulk purchase for the benefit of pharmaceutical companies is therefore not only in no way related to the actual threat situation, but was also carried out just as intransparently as the scandalous procurement of the corona vaccines!” criticized the FPÖ social spokeswoman and club representative NAbg today. dr Dagmar Belakowitsch on the occasion of a current inquiry by the Minister of Health, in which he did not want to answer any questions about the costs and exact contractual contents of the monkeypox virus vaccine procurement, since this was again carried out via the EU and information on the price would be subject to confidentiality.

“This is a slap in the face for taxpayers who are being asked to pay for vaccine procurement but are apparently not allowed to know anything about the costs. Apparently, such deals worth millions with pharmaceutical companies are now all taking place under ‘von der Leyen’s code of secrecy’, whose chats with Pfizer about the billion-dollar disaster in the procurement of corona vaccines are still being meticulously kept under lock and key,” Belakowitsch continued, who also hardly surpassed the renaming of the monkeypox virus to “Mpox” at the instigation of the WHO to counteract “stigmatization, racism and discrimination” as “in terms of absurdity tbar” stated: “The term ‘monkeypox’ is allegedly discriminatory, but ‘monkeypox’, which means the same thing and what the acronym ‘Mpox’ stands for, is not. What about swine flu or bird flu? Apparently you only understand this nonsense if you sit far away from the real needs of the population in the elite ivory tower of the politically correct.”
