Dr. Deborah Birx: From Top Covid Advisor to Big Pharma CEO
Dr. Birx will now be heading up a firm known as Armata Pharmaceuticals
BECKER NEWS
Dr. Deborah Birx, a former top Covid advisor under President Donald Trump, will be transitioning seamlessly to a new job as CEO of a pharmaceutical company.
The former White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator until she was replaced under President Joe Biden, Dr. Birx will now be heading up a firm known as Armata Pharmaceuticals.
“Deborah L. Birx, M.D., was appointed Chief Executive Officer of Armata on July 10, 2023,” the company announced. “Prior to joining Armata, Dr. Birx served as a member of Innoviva’s Board of Directors from March 2021 until July 2023.”
“Dr. Birx is a world-renowned medical expert and leader who most recently served as the response coordinator of the White House Coronavirus Task Force,” the release noted. “Previously, she served as Ambassador-at-Large, when she assumed the role of the Coordinator of the United States Government Activities to Combat HIV/AIDS and U.S. Special Representative for Global Health Diplomacy. Dr. Birx also served as the U.S. Global AIDS Coordinator where she oversaw the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) at the CDC and as the Director of the U.S. Military HIV Research Program (USMHRP) at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research.”
According to Armata, its pharmaceutical research aims “to address areas of significant unmet clinical need, by targeting key antibiotic-resistant bacteria including those on the World Health Organization’s global priority pathogens list.” The biotech firm is “developing and advancing a broad pipeline of natural and synthetic phage candidates, including clinical candidates for Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and other pathogens. Proprietary synthetic phage candidates designed to target an undisclosed infectious disease agent are being developed in partnership with Merck,” the company added.
Dr. Birx drew controversy as Covid pandemic coordinator for purportedly not pushing back hard enough against Donald Trump’s policies. Birx drew criticism from public health experts and Democratic lawmakers “for not speaking out forcefully against the Republican president when he contradicted advice from medical advisers and scientists about how to fight the virus,” the AP reported.
Dr. Birx also appears to have misled the Americans over the ability of the Covid vaccines to prevent infection and transmission by not speaking out to set the record straight during the pandemic.
“I knew these vaccines were not going to protect against infection,” Dr. Birx said on Fox News in July 2022.” And I think we overplayed the vaccines, and it made people then worry that it’s not going to protect against severe disease and hospitalization. It will. But let’s be very clear: 50% of the people who died from the Omicron surge were older, vaccinated. So that’s why I’m saying even if you’re vaccinated and boosted, if you’re unvaccinated right now, the key is testing and Paxlovid. It’s effective. It’s a great antiviral. And really, that is what’s going to save your lives right now if you’re over 70, which if you look at the hospitalizations, hospitalizations are rising steadily with new admissions, particularly in those over 70. And so if you live in the South – I know people keep talking about the fall – I’m worried about the South.”
In other words, Dr. Birx will fit in perfectly now as an official pharmaceutical salesperson.

The devil rewards those that do his dirty deeds apparently.
What a pathetic POS “human” being Birx is… Lied, and lied, and lied some more – and she’s been rewarded for it, and now being rewarded some more. This crapfest needs to stop… NOW. Bring some REAL justice, NOW.
