How far can this go vs how far will it go?

Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach announced a civil lawsuit against Pfizer for misleading marketing of its COVID-19 vaccine. Key points include:

- By February 2024, Pfizer delivered over 3.3 million vaccine doses in Kansas, accounting for 60% of all doses in the state.

Statistics:

• 458 pregnant women reported receiving the vaccine, with over 50% experiencing adverse events

• More than 10% of pregnant recipients reported miscarriages

• Pfizer's vaccine was effective less than 50% of the time against variants
