Switzerland’s future President Alain Berset falsely claimed on national television that those vaccinated with Covid-19 vaccines could not spread the virus, but has not yet been held accountable.
One Swiss man wants to change that.
Criminal charges filed against Switzerland's future president
Alain Berset is a member of the Social Democratic Party (SP) and will serve as the country’s President in 2023.
Swiss banker Pascal Najadi announced this week that he has filed criminal charges against Switzerland’s Federal Interior Minister Alain Berset (SP) for making false statements surrounding Covid-19 vaccines.
More on Berset’s statements
Berset, whose job also includes serving as the Swiss health minister, has been the head of Switzerland’s Covid-19 response since March 2020. This response includes Covid-19 lockdowns, mask mandates and the introduction of the controversial mobile COVID certificate. On December 7, 2022 Once Swiss residents had obtained both Covid-19 vaccines, they were granted access to a mobile phone pass which allowed them to enter restaurants, venues and other establishments that were limited only to vaccinated people.
On October 27, 2021 Berset went onto a national television show during prime time viewing hours and announced that those who have the Covid-19 vaccine cannot spread the virus. He said (in French) “With the certificate, you can show you are not contagious.”
But, a Swiss study published nearly three months before Berset’s statement has proven otherwise. The study was published August 3, 2021 and led by Virginie Masserey, head of infection control and vaccines at the Federal Office for Public Health (FOPH). Masserey and her team of researchers found that the vaccine did not reduce the contagiousness of Covid-19, even if vaccinated people were not showing Covid-19 symptoms.

Masserey announced her results in a press conference (French) warning Swiss residents that “vaccinated persons can transmit the disease as much as non-vaccinate persons.” Masserey cautioned all Swiss residents to remain vigilant about spreading Covid-19 to vulnerable populations, whether they were vaccinated or not.
Masserey’s findings echo what the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has reported. In addition, officials from the biopharmaceutical company Pfizer have admitted in European Parliament that the company never studied whether the vaccine quelled the contagiousness of the virus or not.
Days after Berset’s statement, Masserey announced she was leaving the FOPH.
Berset’s false assertion was particularly controversial considering that the Swiss population just weeks later voted on whether to extend the use of the mobile Covid Certificate; Switzerland voted in favor of keeping it and it remained in place through mid-February of this year.

More on the filing
“In my view, [Berset] has put people in danger because of false safety thinking,” Najadi explained on American Tom Luongo’s YouTube channel Monday. Luongo, is the author of the “Gold, Goats ‘n Guns” newsletter. Najadi is a Swiss investment banker and retired former head of Najadi and Partners AG in Zug.
“On Friday, December the 2nd, I went to the local police station and filed criminal charges against Alain Berset” with the highest court in Switzerland, Najadi said. The Swiss banker went onto explain that he believes the mobile phone Covid Certificate created a “two-prong society” in Switzerland, a country where “everyone is the same in front of the law.”
Najadi also says that Berset’s claim may have put many vulnerable Swiss people at risk of Covid-19 infections under the false belief that they could interact with vaccinated people without contracting Covid-19.
“People were spreading the virus all over the place!” Najadi said. He underscored that the “get vaccinated for the sake of others” line used to promote vaccines was falsely marketed.
What the future holds
Should Berset be found guilty, he faces up to five years in prison and fines for abusing his office. Under Swiss penal code, Berset is presumed innocent under found guilty.
This story is continuing to develop, but so far has only been reported by local outlet NebelSpalter (German).
