Attorney Siri just admitted that he can’t make a ton of money by taking cases to the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program.
IMO, this is why he and his client RFK Jr. want to be able to sue vaccine manufacturers, and why RFK Jr. arranged for Siri to appear at ACIP.
To me, this is corruption.

We are swiftly moving into the 2025 version of the Dark Ages. My uncle died from liver disease caused by Hep B infection. They first came for Covid vaccines. Then they came for Hep B. The reasoning is not rooted in data, it is rooted in anti-intellectualism. ACIP has a bad rep.

What is lost in a lot of these headlines is the fact that these institutions are vanishing. This is a huge loss for everyone who may ever use a therapeutic medicine in the future. And it isn’t just limited to us unlucky Americans; destroying institutions like the US FDA will have global consequences
Four people familiar with the decision told Politico that Rick Pazdur, the top drug regulator at the FDA, submitted his resignation Tuesday, further roiling an agency that’s been upended by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
