During questions, Dutch Member of Parliament Rob Roos, a conservative and opponent of Europe's COVID-19 passports, asked Small whether Pfizer could provide lawmakers with evidence it believed the vaccine would prevent coronavirus transmission before bringing it to market.

"Was the Pfizer COVID vaccine tested on stopping the transmission of the virus before it entered the market?" Roos asked. "If not, please say it clearly. If yes, are you willing to share the data with this committee?”
