I wouldn't say it was a shitstorm from them. It was a shitstorm from the government. They happened to support it. I really hope that some of them - at least in private - are having a word with themselves about it, so this kind of mass psychosis (primarily a bending of the knee) doesn't happen again.

I think everybody who overreacted in aggressive, punitive or arrogant way be it friends or government should have this word with themselves. But to avoid any further fuss, a revised research and re-evaluation of death causality and efficiency of each vaccine must be conducted first. And at the slightest doubt the governments and anti-vax fighters must be first to ask for such to be conducted. Even if causality and efficiency cannot be clearly determined, then apology for overreaction and 'we'll do our best to make sure it won't happen again, at least not in the way we did it' should follow.
I'm sceptical, but, who knows, may be there are still some brave people left. Reputation comes with integrity, but fear of unwanted outcome often works against this, often leading to 'ok, there were some errors, but let's forget about it.' I can understand this, as the high profile carreers and pharma company stocks value and employment will be at stake. But that's not an excuse.
