NBC4: Ramaswamy Contradicts Himself on COVID-19 After Making Over $2 Billion in Profit & Pushing for National COVID Registry

May 12, 2026

Ramaswamy: "Could we tolerate a national system in which certain people on the basis of a biomarker are segregated to say you can't go back to a normal life"

Columbus, Ohio- In unearthed audio reported by NBC4, Vivek Ramaswamy contradicted his own comments on COVID-19 after attacking Dr. Amy Acton on her role as Ohio Department of Health director.

This discovery follows bombshell reporting from the Associated Press that shone a spotlight on Ramaswamy's pandemic ghosts, including how he and his company made $2.2 billion from the COVID-19 vaccine and pushed for a national COVID-19 registry that would "segregate" the American people based on their vaccine status.

In addition to proposing draconian measures to boost his bottom line, the AP investigation revealed Ramaswamy served on Ohio's COVID-19 response team, advised Jon Husted on pandemic response, then paid a Wikipedia editor to scrub his involvement once it was no longer politically convenient.

WATCH THE CLIP HERE:

"Ohioans can't trust a single word that comes out of billionaire Vivek Ramaswamy's mouth. Whether it's an extreme proposal to 'segregate' Americans or scrubbing his involvement from his Wikipedia page after the fact, everything Ramaswamy says is a scam that will make more money for himself and leave Ohioans behind," said Ohio Democratic Party spokeswoman Katie Seewer.
