ACIP was still erring on the side of Pharma, which they presumably have to due to the sponsored-Congress problem. They may have got it right, they may not. Now the onus is on someone to do sensible prospective trials.

Antibody production is not immunity to disease. The promotion of this false equivalency represents the first Big Lie of vaccinology. It should be rejected by regulators and patients alike as legitimate evidence of vaccine efficacy in the future.

The POUCH Act is a beginning, not an endpoint. If lawmakers are serious about improving public health, they must resist the gravitational pull of the Sinclair Trap and design a nicotine policy that rewards switching rather than punishing it.

There was a time – very recently – when mainstream medicine actively promoted OxyContin and other deadly narcotics as safe and minimally addictive. Hundreds of thousands died as a result. The bloom is off the rose for the vaccine industry.

In terms of importance, the Covid-19 pandemic was the biggest event in human history since World War II. Since that time, nothing has caused as much fear across the entire planet as what began in 2020.

Jackson’s verbose monologues reveal that she understands the importance of this struggle. She knows that her benefactors depend on her denying the President from obtaining “actual control” over the agencies that the Constitution designates to his realm.

All farmers have a choice, and the faster our society respects them enough to put their choice consequences in their hands, the sooner farmers will make more creative and innovative decisions. The crop insurance safety net prejudices decisions.

There is no such thing as an “anti-misinformation review.” What we have are systematic and unsystematic, also called narrative, reviews. And there is no such thing as a safe drug. All drugs, including vaccines, cause harm in some people.

The proposed ACIP voting questions do not go far enough to address documented safety problems. Moving the birth dose of hepatitis B vaccine to 2 months would only produce a small reduction in autism and SIDS rates. Combination shots are NOT safer.

Such proposed reforms do seem like legitimate recommendations that would allow for the progression of science and the continuation of worthwhile work while also serving as important first steps in cleaning the Augean stable that science in academia has become.

The vote on whether to continue the universal newborn hepatitis B vaccination policy was postponed, but the discussion at ACIP exposed how the directive to vaccinate infants rested on assumptions and partial data rather than on a scientific foundation.

There will be no shortage of economists and policy apparatchiks offering very legitimate and serious questions centered over that portion of the population that is not young and healthy. The more pressing problem is unburdening wage earners from economic insanity.

If universities and their medical centers want to regain public trust, they must demonstrate that knowledge and learning—not image management—are once again the point of academic life. If they fail, new institutions will rise to take their place.

The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) will discuss hepatitis B vaccines at their meeting on December 4 and 5. In this article I will lay out the case for removing hepatitis B vaccines from the CDC childhood schedule altogether.
