There is a difference between knowingly creating bad products and rushing them through the approval process (read: Pfizer BoD, FDA, NIH, CDC heads) and the thousands of lesser employees who did not knowingly break a law or cause harm.
There is a massive difference.
Or should all of the contractors who installed asbestos without knowingly creating the environment for eventual mesothelioma be imprisoned?
Should Trump and Trump casino employees be fined, imprisoned, etc. for running casinos that they know create gambling addictions and can ruin lives?
Doctors and people who knowingly put people on ventilators despite the evidence they increase mortality are guilty of malpractice. The FDA, NIH, Pfizer CEO, and Moderna CEO are guilty of negligence.
That doesn’t mean the accountants and other lesser employees at the company knew or abetted said malpractice and negligence. Particularly if they left those companies years ago, before this chaos started.
ignorance of the law is no excuse to break the law
