R.F.Kennedy Jr. - Attorney, Author, Thimerosal: Let the Science Speak:
When Congress passed the Vaccine Act, they knew that they'd removed from the manufacturers any incentive to make vaccines safe. So they took that responsibility and they put it firmly in the lap of the Department of Health and Human Services. One of the key requirements of the act was that HHS monitor vaccine safety and make a report on it every two years to Congress. In 2018, we sued HHS under the Freedom of Information Law, and they were unable to produce a single one of these reports.

- When Congress passed the Vaccine Act,
00:00:04.753 --> 00:00:08.998
they knew that they were removing from the manufacturers
00:00:08.998 --> 00:00:10.095
any incentive to make vaccines safe,
00:00:10.095 --> 00:00:13.021
so they took that responsibility
00:00:13.021 --> 00:00:15.055
and they put it firmly in the lap
00:00:15.055 --> 00:00:19.998
of the Department of Health and Human Services.
00:00:19.998 --> 00:00:22.022
- Congress required a mandate for safer vaccines,
00:00:22.022 --> 00:00:26.067
that the secretary undertake a variety of research projects
00:00:26.067 --> 00:00:28.967
to reduce the amount of injury to children.
00:00:28.967 --> 00:00:31.015
- One of the key requirements of the act
00:00:31.015 --> 00:00:33.056
was that HHS monitor vaccine safety
00:00:33.056 --> 00:00:37.008
and make a report on it every two years to Congress.
00:00:37.008 --> 00:00:42.008
In 2018, we sued HHS under the Freedom of Information Law,
00:00:44.025 --> 00:00:46.036
and they were unable to produce
00:00:46.036 --> 00:00:49.041
a single one of those reports.
00:00:49.041 --> 00:00:51.038
- The only way you're really going to know
00:00:52.003 --> 00:00:55.027
how much damage vaccines are causing
00:00:55.027 --> 00:00:58.043
is to look at people who've received the vaccines,
00:00:58.043 --> 00:01:00.043
people who haven't received the vaccines,
00:01:00.043 --> 00:01:03.092
look at vaccinated children versus unvaccinated children.
00:01:03.092 --> 00:01:07.001
- That is done for every other medical product or device.
00:01:07.001 --> 00:01:10.001
In 2009, we actually had $16 million
00:01:10.094 --> 00:01:14.086
set aside in the budget for research to do this study,
00:01:14.086 --> 00:01:18.023
and CDC was so angry
00:01:18.023 --> 00:01:21.999
at the risk as opposed to the vaccine program
00:01:21.999 --> 00:01:24.011
that at the next meeting of this research committee,
00:01:24.011 --> 00:01:27.025
they brought it up again in an illegal revote
00:01:27.025 --> 00:01:28.058
and took away the money.
00:01:28.058 --> 00:01:29.077
The director of this committee,
00:01:29.077 --> 00:01:32.097
Tom Insel, head of the National Institute of Mental Health,
00:01:32.097 --> 00:01:35.033
even said in a shocking admission
00:01:35.033 --> 00:01:36.087
that we can't do this study
00:01:36.087 --> 00:01:38.094
because we have a conflict of interest
00:01:38.094 --> 00:01:40.002
that it might help the children
00:01:40.002 --> 00:01:41.999
win their cases in vaccine court.
