Transferring Data to Pfizer

Question

The Talmud in tractate Shabbat (86b) raises a doubt: “Do Jews, who are anxious about commandments, bind up their bodies, whereas gentiles, who are not anxious about commandments, do not? Or perhaps, since they eat creeping and swarming things, they bind up their bodies.” From here it follows that one cannot infer from biological processes in the body of a Jew to the body of a gentile, or vice versa.
When the company Pfizer requests data on vaccinated Jews for research purposes, it falls into a methodological error: it studies the effect of the vaccine in Israel and infers from that to the general population around the world. Therefore, in my opinion it is forbidden to transfer information to them.
Will you join my call to the religious parties to prevent the transfer of the data?

Answer

Absolutely

In addition, let’s call on the religious parties to strongly oppose action on the climate issue, because the messiah will be arriving very soon (at most 220 years until the seventh millennium), so it’s no longer relevant. Just as someone on the verge of death does not refrain from adding sugar to his tea for health reasons.
