Health Canada answer to Order Paper Question Q-1954 on the SV40 sequence in Pfizer's plasmid (Hansard, 29 January 2024)
Health Canada's answer states that Pfizer provided the full plasmid sequence at its initial filing, that the SV40 promoter-enhancer fragment 'is inactive, has no functional role,' and that Health Canada sent Pfizer a clarification request in July 2023. The answer does not say Pfizer 'did not specifically identify' the SV40 element. That wording appears in reports by The Epoch Times and advocacy outlets of an email from Health Canada.
