June 9th, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. retired 17 members of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices or ACIP, the CDC external panel that wields the grave responsibility of adding new vaccines to the recommended childhood schedule.
June 11th, Sec. Kennedy announced 8 new members new members to ACIP, none of whom are ideological anti-vaxxers. They are “highly credentialed physicians and scientists who will make extremely consequential public health determinations by applying evidence-based decision-making with objectivity and common sense.” according to Kennedy.
Kennedy stated that he would be providing examples of the historical corruption at ACIP to help the public understand why this clean sweep was necessary. ”The most outrageous example of ACIP’s malevolent malpractice has been its stubborn unwillingness to demand adequate safety trials before recommending new vaccines for our children. Today, a compliant American child receives between 69 and 92 routine vaccines (depending on brand/dictated dosage) from conception to 18 years of age. This is up from 11 shots in 1986. ACIP has recommended each of these additional jabs without requiring placebo-controlled trials for any of them. This means that no one can scientifically ascertain whether these products are averting more problems than they are causing. Many vaccine promoters have challenged this assertion. They are always wrong.” Kennedy posted on Twitter/X.
Recently CNN, which has devolved into a shameless propagandist for Big Pharma, gleefully proclaimed that it had found 257 placebo-controlled studies for routine vaccines. Kennedy publicly deconstructed CNN’s claims. “No routine injected vaccine on CDC’s schedule was licensed for children based on a placebo-controlled trial. In instances where a vaccine was used as a control, it too was never licensed based on a placebo-controlled trial. That is not conjecture. It is a fact based on FDA’s clinical trial data. (See http://sirillp.com/noplacebo)”. He then went on to show that “236 of the studies clearly did not use an ‘inert’ safety comparator in a trial to license an injected routine vaccine for children on CDC’s schedule.”
“For the remaining 21 studies CNN’s list claims used an inert injection, 9 plainly did not” and “For the remaining 12 listed studies which may have had an inert injection, none was a trial relied upon to license a routine vaccine on CDC’s childhood schedule” with Kennedy noting that “While these 12 studies were not relied upon to license a routine vaccine on the CDC’s schedule, they do reflect that a placebo-controlled trial of a vaccine is possible. They also reflect what can be learned when a placebo trial is performed.” For example: RCT 122 found that severe adverse effects occurred in 69 recipients of vaccine compared with one recipient of placebo, and RCT 124 found the rate of hospitalization was actually higher in the vaccine group than the placebo group.
“We have gone from 3 routine injections by age one in 1986 (the year the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act passed) to 25 routine injections by age one in 2025 (which now does not include Covid-19 vaccine). Because of the 1986 Act, every one of these products, save one, was developed by companies knowing they would almost never be liable for serious harm. During this same period, chronic diseases in our children exploded, most of which are caused by immune system dysregulation. If we are to identify the exposures that are causing this epidemic of autoimmune diseases, we need to rule out products given dozens of times to young children, specifically to modify the immune system, as potential culprits. Our infants and children deserve the best safety trials possible to keep them safe. We should care as much about every child who could be injured by one of these products as we do every child who could be injured by an infectious disease. We must protect all children.” said Kennedy.
