if the liability shield is threatened the industry will lobby and propagandize to make people think that the companies wont be able to make vaccines and people will die.

The industry will find some angle to make the oponents of the liability shield look like the villians and it will become a political wedge issue.

from my understanding the vax industry pushed this through by threatening to withdraw from the vax manufacturing busness , leaving the fed gov and public health establishment without vaccines to push.

its a fallacy however b/c if the markets in health care and research were freer and tax money were removed and th4e NIH was ABOLISHED , there would be many companies that would rise to the challenge of making a safe effective vax.

Im a practicing doc and I dont have a liability shield. the threat of suits is one among many factors that improves the quality of health care.

You are so correct about the pharma messaging to fight any efforts. We need to make parents aware that if they were truly “safe and effective” that they wouldn’t need the liability shield. They have the shield because they are “unavoidably unsafe.” At a minimum, a parent should have the right to choose if they want to use the product based on a real risk-benefit analysis using what skimpy evidence of safety they have from limited testing.

Yep.

We were told that the companies would have been bankrupted by “frivolous” lawsuits by parents whose children “unfortunately” had autism, which parents, grasping at straws to explain their children’s devastating diagnoses, falsely attributed to childhood vaccines.

I suppose now, it’s devastated adults who are grasping for explanations as to why they suddenly have myocarditis, or severe autoimmune diseases, or miscarriages.
