Have you heard this argument?

Apparently, some folks think that because we have a National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program that compensates those who have serious problems after a vaccine, even deaths, then it must mean that vaccines are dangerous.
Do the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program Payouts Prove that Vaccines are Dangerous?
To most other people, that argument doesn’t hold water.
Why?
Because we know that:
- the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program is a no-fault alternative to the traditional legal system for resolving vaccine injury petitions
- of over 3.1 billion doses of vaccines that were distributed in the United States between 2006 and 2016, there were 3,749 compensated claims through the NVICP
- almost 80% of all compensated awards by the NVICP come as a “result of a negotiated settlement between the parties in which HHS has not concluded, based upon review of the evidence, that the alleged vaccine(s) caused the alleged injury.”
- the NVICP settlements are funded by an excise tax on vaccines
- the NVICP cases are published by the U.S. Court of Federal Claims, so all information is disclosed to the public and no safety concerns are hidden
So what does the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) really prove?
It proves that true vaccine injuries are very rare – about 1 in a million rare.
It proves that while vaccines are not 100% safe, they are very safe.
Certainly safer than the complications of a vaccine-preventable disease.
And it proves that anti-vaccine arguments are very easy to refute…

What a sick joke. Entire countries did not have autism problems until they adopted the WHO vaccination schedule, while the U.S. with the highest vaccine rate also has the highest rate of autism spectrum disorders, currently more than 2% of vaccinated children. Amish, Mennonites, Orthodox Jews, and home schooled children who don’t vaccinate also don’t have autism problems. “Trust me I’m a doctor would I lie to you about vaccines being perfectly safe?” Hell yes, because medicine is so crooked they make the Mafia look like Boy Scouts in comparison. I learned this the hard way when I almost died from mercury poisoning I got from my amalgam fillings which the quacks at the ADA still insist are perfectly safe too. It is no coincidence there is a lot of symptom overlap between mercury poisoning and autism, or that autism have been reversed using mercury detox protocols.
Ever think this has to do with diagnosis?
Wow. What a load. How about just going back to good old jurisprudence. If your company injures my child, I sue you in court. Many drugs are pulled off the market this way. We save lives, good. But vaccine manufacturers told Congress they would go out of business if such actions were allowed. Let’s think on that a while.
