Samuel Shapira is the man who has headed one of the most secretive and important Israeli institution for the past eight years. He was the director of the Ness Ziona Biological Institute.
The official website of the Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper addressed the issue of vaccination in Israel in an interview with an Israeli professor.
The report states: Professor Samuel Shapira is the man who has headed one of the most secretive and important institutions in Israel for the past eight years. He was the director of the Ness Ziona Biological Institute. He is the one who developed the Israeli vaccine after the outbreak of the Corona epidemic.
Regarding the Pfizer vaccine and its import to Israel, Professor Samuel said: “We are a country that is big enough and we can have our own vaccine. We may not have good relations with this [US] or other countries tomorrow and we will not get the vaccine from them.
In ironic remarks about the import of Pfizer and modern vaccines to Israel, he said that the inhabitants of this region were used as laboratory mice of the Pfizer vaccine: “The CEO of a company may decide to test the results of their vaccines, not on Israeli citizens, but on Singaporeans. What do we do then?”
Samuel Shapira on why the Israeli vaccine was not made,” said: I have documents that show that government officials stopped us for months. They said it was unnecessary to make an Israeli vaccine. We got an effective vaccine in July 2020. The Ministry of Health rejected us four times for reasons that were irrelevant to me and many people at the institute.
I do not think the Pfizer vaccine was a great vaccine. It was a vaccine that worked well for four to five months, but quickly lost its effectiveness against new mutations.
Yedioth Ahronoth wrote in its report: “In the book she is about to publish, The Pandemic Circus, she says repeatedly: “Vaccinated Israelis actually participated in a collective trial of a trading company.”
In a country that turned the word “pfizer” into an international lifeboat, Professor Shapira still believes in his Israeli [vaccine].
