A federal court in the Northern District of Texas has ordered officials at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to release approximately 7.8 million text responses from the V-safe COVID-19 vaccine safety monitoring system following a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request filed by the Freedom Coalition of Doctors Choice.1
The Freedom Coalition of Doctors Choice, which represents 91 medical and public health professionals, journalists and scientists,2 is a non-profit organization working to obtain and disseminate to the public data from the “free-text fields” in the CDC’s V-safe database.3
