Facebook’s Audit, Marketing leads are former Pfizer directors

Facebook’s Corporate Communications Manager, Internal Audit Director, Operations and charge of Client Partner and Global Marketing Solutions manager are former Pfizer employees.

According to their profiles at LinkedIn, the three joined Facebook from Pfizer between 2018 and 2020.

The platform that routinely censors posts critical of COVID-19 vaccines – has hired several alumni from Pfizer’s marketing and internal audit teams to lead similar efforts at the social media platform, according to The National Pulse.

The hires appear to present a conflict of interest for the social media platform, which has come under fire for censoring and banning users who’ve posted about the side effects or questioned the efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines.

Facebook’s Internal Audit Director, for example, was formerly a Senior Director at Pfizer. The employee – Tiffany Stokes – has held the influential position at Facebook since January 2020.

“Build and own strong relationships with critical business partners, provide project oversight of operational audits, manage internal audit plan and risk assessment,” she lists as part of her job description on her LinkedIn profile. “Leadership requires close collaboration with the Sales, Partnerships, Global Operations, International, HR, and Legal teams to assess and prioritize risks across an ever-changing high-tech business landscape,” she adds.

Prior to joining Facebook, Stokes worked at COVID-19 vaccine maker Pfizer for five years as the Senior Director of its finance and legal operations.

“Established and managed legal, budgeting, and forecasting processes to achieve the business’s financial goals as well as cost control commitments made to shareholders and the financial and investment community,” she summarized her position.

Prior to serving in this role, which she also notes required her to “adjust financial forecasts based on fluctuating costs, prioritization of legal matters, and impending legal issues,” she worked as the pharmaceutical giant’s Assistant Treasurer for the U.S. and Capital Markets, where she “directed” the company’s $8 billion investment portfolio.

The National Pulse can also reveal that a Facebook Vice President for Global Clients and Categories was formerly Pfizer’s Chief Marketing Officer for consumer healthcare in the U.S. The employee, Brian Groves, worked at Pfizer for a total of 14 years before joining Facebook as a Director of its Global Accounts.

Similarly, a former Director for Digital Marketing and Innovation at Pfizer joined Facebook as a Client Partner for its Global Marketing Solutions branch in 2018.

In addition to Facebook hiring Pfizer marketing team alumni, the platform also added Pfizer’s former Senior Public Affairs and Corporate Communications Project Manager as its own Corporate Communications Manager in 2019.

According to The National Pulse, the unearthed personnel links between Pfizer and Facebook follow the social media platform deploying its third-party “fact-checkers” – who have deep ties to Democratic politics and the Chinese Communist Party – to brand COVID-19 studies and articles at odds with mainstream narrative as “disinformation.”

Australia permanently mandates vaccines for health workers

The new code of conduct for health practitioners permanently obliges health workers to take vaccines against any disease that authorities deem necessary.

Australia's vaccination of health practitioners is to become permanently mandatory with the new code of conduct

The Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) updated the entire industry's code of conduct to permanently mandate vaccines, according to the Rebel News.

“This year, a new additional clause, states that health practitioners must be immunised against any relevant communicable disease" Rebel News reported.

The new code of conduct is taking effect from the 29th June 2022 to strengthen medical mandates at a time the country removed several covid restrictions claiming the pandemic is ending.

Previously the code of conduct stated that health practitioners must 'understand the principles of immunisation against communicable diseases

The continent nation between the Pacific and Indian oceans in the Southern Hemisphere has been very notorious for forcing its citizens to accept the four jabs for covid.

An Australian medical practitioner told the Rebel News over the weekend that "It's a sneaky way to have an ongoing mandate for all Allied Health Professionals”

The health practitioner said she "[believed] there are some health practitioners sitting on the side-lines waiting for mandates to end or state of emergencies to end. Maybe they're working in a limited capacity from home. Maybe they're on extended breaks, on maternity leave. Or just working in another job right now.

But if something like this is put into the code of conduct, maybe that means they can't even work from home or come back at a later date when the state of emergency ends", she added.

In early 2021 the Services Australia general manager Hank Jongen assured the public not to worry about rumours that covid vaccines would be made mandatory.

“The coronavirus vaccine is voluntary and the government has made that absolutely clear,” he said 

The new move by the health practice regulator in Australia may confirm the current rumours that institutions such as Family Tax Benefit (FTB) and the old-age pension, will be linked to the jab in August 2022, to coerce parents into getting all kids done, or to lose their payments.

Alleged in the pipeline also is that the whole family or everyone at the same residence will need to provide proof of shots, for example, a single mother getting benefits, will need to provide proof for herself and all the children too.

Reports have it that the waiting times at Centrelink, an Australian Government department delivering payments and services on behalf of a number of government programs, have hiked like never before.

Some have attributed it to the staff walking out over vaccine mandates and unpromising health changes.

In November 2020 the Guardian published “Centrelink office waiting times balloon despite the major push towards online services” which the writer said blames the challenge on inadequate staff.

Clinic refuses man’s blood who did not fill pregnancy history question

Scottish clinic refused to accept a man’s blood donation after he refused to answer a question asking him if he was expecting a child or had been pregnant in the past six months, according to the Daily Mail over the weekend.

Albert Halls Clinic in the Scottish city of Stirling insisted that the habitual blood donor, a 66-year-old man, Leslie Sinclair had to first fill the question on the form asking about one’s pregnancy history with a yes or no.

Leslie Sinclair who had donated 125 pints of blood before refused to fill in the question on the pre-donation questionnaire, claiming that he was a man and that the question did not apply to him.

“This time around, there was a question I hadn't seen before: 'Are you pregnant, or have you been in the last six months?' which required a yes or no answer”, said the father of two who has donated blood for nearly half a century.

“I pointed out to the staff that it was impossible for me to be in that position but I was told that I would need to answer, otherwise I couldn't give blood. I told them that was stupid and that if I had to leave, I wouldn't be back, and that was it, I got on my bike and cycled away” Sinclair added.

During the standoff that took place on Wednesday last week, health workers who turned their minds to the “inclusiveness” notion refused to take Sinclair’s blood.

It emerged that all potential donors are asked if they are pregnant to 'promote inclusiveness' which the retired driver for an engineering company saw as a ‘nonsensical’ question.

“It is nonsensical and it makes me angry because there are vulnerable people waiting for blood, including children, and in desperate need of help. But they've been denied my blood because of the obligation to answer a question that can't possibly be answered”

Professor Marc Turner, director of the Scottish National Blood Transfusion Service (SNBTS) commented that it was a decision taken by the institution to promote inclusiveness despite the need for blood.

“We thank Mr Sinclair for his commitment over a long number of years. As a public body, we take cognisance of changes in society around how such questions may be asked without discrimination and have a duty to promote inclusiveness – therefore all donors are now asked the same questions” Prof Turner said.

The stand-off took place as NHS England launched a campaign earlier this week to recruit a million more blood donors over the next five years after numbers fell due to the Covid restrictions.

The Scottish National Blood Transfusion Service began a drive earlier this month to find 16,000 new donors in the coming year.
