‘This Is All Data Free’: Fauci’s Texts Reveal Concerns About COVID Vaccines And Miscarriages

Texts obtained from Dr. Anthony Fauci’s phone include a chat between Biden administration officials about pregnant women receiving the COVID vaccine and the risks of miscarriage and birth defects — just three months before they formally recommended pregnant women get vaccinated.

When pregnant women asked if the vaccine was safe for them and their babies, these public officials answered affirmatively, while their private chats appear to tell a different story.

Republican Wisconsin Sen. Ron Johnson’s office is combing through 34,000 text messages and 522 voicemails from Fauci’s phone, he said. The first release includes four pages.

When Republicans retook control of the Senate in 2025, Republican Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul became the chairman of the Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee (HSGAC) and began compelling testimony and subpoenaing records. At the same time, Johnson gained the gavel of HSGAC’s chief investigative subcommittee. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. began turning over records as well.

Vivek Murthy, surgeon general under former President Joe Biden, asked Fauci and then-Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) director Rochelle Walensky whether the health agencies had data on the safety of receiving the COVID vaccine in various stages of pregnancy, according to the texts released by Johnson’s office.

The Daily Caller News Foundation reached out to Fauci, Murthy and Walensky via email, but none of them immediately replied.

“Hi Vivek, my understanding is that this is all a data free,” Walensky replied. She noted the CDC had begun collecting surveillance data, including through Vsafe, the centers’ vaccine safety monitoring system.

Fauci initially said there was no reason to worry, but chimed in two hours later that after consulting scientists there may be a risk of miscarriage.

“I asked around a bit more and another issue came up that you need to be aware of. Since many people have significant cytokines storm and fever after the 2nd dose, this theoretically could be associated with miscarriage in the 1st trimester,” Fauci said.
