Did Moderna admit that its COVID-19 mRNA vaccines cause cancer?

Does this video provide factual proof that COVID-19 vaccines interfere with human reproduction, cause cancer and are ineffective?

Do COVID-19 vaccines for children fail risk/benefit analysis, permanently damaging children's brains and reproductive systems to prevent a harmless infection?

Meanwhile, the consensus of published, peer-reviewed and field tested expert…

Did Dr. Robert Malone correctly claim in a speech that COVID-19 vaccines are not working, that they cause infertility and that vaccine makers are protected legally while families are not?

Did Pfizer "admit" there is no vaccine approved by the Food & Drug Administration for use in the United States in a recorded phone call? No, that is a misrepresentation.
