(LifeSiteNews) — Former Trump administration COVID-19 coordinator Deborah Birx, who admitted in a recent book to committing “subterfuge” to promote harsher coronavirus strategies, acknowledged in a recent interview she didn’t think the frequently-mandated COVID-19 jabs would actually stop the spread of the virus.

During a Friday interview with Fox News’ Neil Cavuto, in which they discussed President Joe Biden having contracted the coronavirus despite reportedly receiving four COVID-19 shots, Birx said she “knew these vaccines were not going to protect against” getting infected.

“I think we overplayed the vaccines,” Birx said, adding that overhyping the injections’ effectiveness ultimately “made people then worry that” the shots wouldn’t “protect against severe disease and hospitalization.”

While asserting that the jabs do actually protect against severe illness or death, Birx appeared to undercut her own argument by adding that half of COVID patients who died after contracting the “omicron” variant had been vaccinated.

“But let’s be very clear, 50% of the people who died from the Omicron surge were all older, vaccinated,” Birx told Cavuto.

Birx’s comments came after the former White House COVID coordinator’s name made headlines last week for controversial remarks she made in a recent tell-all book.

In her book Silent Invasion, which purports to tell the “Untold Story of the Trump Administration,” Birx wrote that immediately after convincing the Trump administration “to implement our version of the two-week shutdown,” she “was trying to figure out how to extend it,” LifeSiteNews previously reported.

Birx also admitted to devising ways to circumvent the more moderate COVID-19 advice from the White House, including a “write, submit, revise, hide, resubmit” routine for pandemic reports that even she described as “strategic sleight-of-hand” and “subterfuge.”

Meanwhile, the Daily Caller noted Birx had previously said the Biden administration was not “lying,” but rather “hoping,” when it erroneously told the American public that the experimental, abortion-tainted COVID shots would stop the coronavirus’ spread, an assertion that lent credibility to widespread jab mandates.

The outlet also pointed to a 2020 Washington Post report in which Birx said she thought the number of deaths caused by COVID-19 had been exaggerated by as much as 25%.
