ORLANDO, Fla. — Gov. Ron DeSantis on Tuesday vowed to investigate people and entities who committed “wrongdoing” in relation to COVID-19 vaccines, announcing he plans to ask the Supreme Court of Florida to impanel a statewide grand jury.
“That will come with legal processes, that we’ll be able to get more information and to bring legal accountability for those who committed misconduct,” DeSantis said of potential results of the investigations.
DeSantis’ announcement took place during a virtual hour-and-a-half roundtable where scientists, people with professed vaccine-related injuries and medical professionals joined him and Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo in making claims against COVID-19 vaccines and their approval process.
