Government agencies claim vaccines are “safe and effective”, (amongst other claims), but can they provide proof to support their claims?
When it comes to vaccine products, normal market forces that would keep manufacturers “honest” DO NOT come into play! Vaccine manufactures are exempt of liability. COVID-19 vaccine manufactures have been granted exemption from liability because of the “emergency use” nature of the products, what the average person is likely not aware of is that all vaccine products that reside on the CDC childhood vaccine schedule are liability free, and have been since 1986.
The push to get the COVID-19 vaccines into infants and toddlers is so they can roll these onto the childhood immunisation schedule…from that moment on…the manufactures become liability free, regardless of emergency uses (EUA) status – for every age group.
In the United States, by law, you CAN NOT sue a pharmaceutical company if you or your child are “damaged” by their product labelled a “vaccine”. Vaccines are categorised as a “biologic“, this is different to a drug, and follows a different regulatory pathway. With vaccines, the government has taken all liability upon themselves, you have to sue your government should you have an adverse reaction or death – the government is the same body telling you vaccines are safe and effective and do not cause autism!
The federal government agency responsible for ensuring the safety of vaccines, is the department of health and human services (HHS), the parent department of the FDA. It is the same department that promotes vaccines. They appoint the judge if you want to prosecute them (if you have a vaccine injury or death of family member) and you can’t get discovery if you go to trial…where there is no jury. Welcome to vaccine court!
Outside the US, the FDA and CDC are held as an authority on knowledge surrounding vaccines, making it also difficult to sue a vaccine manufacturer in a court of law.
With any other product, if it fails to work or causes harm the manufacture can be sued for damages – where all normal court proceedings apply. If a company sells a faulty product, it’s in the interest of that company to fix that product or risk getting sued and/or potentially go broke – natural market forces, and the threat of lawsuits, help to keep them “honest”.
Big Pharma can be sued over drug products but not vaccine products! Though interestingly its the company that pays out the millions to billions of dollars, no one person is held financially liable or is threatened with jail, and so the pharma companies become repeat offenders. They simply build the liability costs into their sales and marketing budgets and keep putting their prices up!
With vaccines, these common rules DO NOT apply.
Since 1986 The Act, vaccine manufactures (Big Pharma) have been getting away with “murder” and morbidity, and placing that liability on the government of the United States. To get compensation you have to sue the government in a special “vaccine court” where discovery evidence is not allowed.
When the Act was passed, the government agencies (FDA, CDC, HHS) were meant to monitor the products on the public’s behalf, to ensure their safety and effectiveness standards were up held. We now have proof that they failed to do their job thanks to the work of the Informed Consent Action Network (ICAN), a not-for-profit activist organisation founded by Del Bigtree.
In 2017 ICAN began it’s work, starting with seeking the clinical evidence relied upon to “support” the safety claims made by the “authorities” over childhood vaccines. Finally lawsuit “discovery” is possible!
Del tell the story of ICAN’s beginnings and the power of it’s lawsuits – HERE
ICAN together with brilliant legal mind of their lead Lawyer Aaron Siri are chipping away at the system who was meant to look out for the public’s interest, by submitting Freedom of Information requests to government agencies seeking their evidence they use to justify claims they make to the public. The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) provides a mechanism where by taxpayer-funded public agencies can be held accountable for their actions.
Following a FOIA submission, too often the government agencies do not respond in a timely manner, so ICAN has to sue them in court to get a judge to force them to provide the information, which they are legally bound to do by law! To be clear, these are taxpayer funded public agencies that are resisting their duty to provide public information – its as though they have something to hide!
This delay tactic, would financially and mentally exhaust an average citizen, but ICAN has grown into a well oiled machine, determined to pursue the truth.
In many of the lawsuits, in the end a letter is returned to ICAN with some variation of “we cannot find any documents per your request”! Meaning the agencies do not have proof to support claims they make to the public. The statements which the public have been conditioned to believe!
If you tell a lie often enough eventually they will believe!
What is ICAN?
ICAN is the activist, legal and fundraising organisation founded by Del Bigtree and the The Highwire is the news platform hosted by Del, which reports the finding from these FOIA requests. The Highwire is a weekly production covering US and global news, with a focuses on vaccines and associated issues such as the COVID-19 pandemic and vaccine rollout, all in real time.
ICAN has won against the NIH, CDC, FDA, HHS, all of the major health agencies, and in doing so is getting little pieces of indisputable information to put this puzzle of lies together for the world to see just how they’ve been deceived.
Sometime you can’t tell people the truth, you have to show them!
Winning the lawsuits only has power if the public is aware. The mainstream media won’t cover these wins, so Del realised he had to start his own media company in order to show the public the lawsuit “discoveries”, and let the court of public opinion prevail.
ICAN’s legal efforts leading up to the pandemic placed them in a critically important position for having a significant impact on the COVID-19 vaccine clinical trials and potential approval process for COVID-19 vaccines. Just for starters, because they were aware no childhood vaccine has ever been safety tested against a placebo control, they demanded the FDA demand of the vaccine companies to include a placebo group. Why do you think the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine was never used in USA? AstraZeneca didn’t use a placebo control group.
“ICAN will continue to build the record and case against the improper actions by the US federal “health” agencies so that they cannot claim ignorance when judgment day arrives.”
Below are but a few of ICAN’s lawsuit wins which will help build the picture of lies from Big Government agencies. Each as a link to the full information on ICAN’s website.
ICAN Law suit WINS
Breaking win October 2022
The same lawyers who sued the FDA to access the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine documents they wanted hidden for 75 years.
ICAN filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request on August 25th, 2017 to HHS seeking copies of the biennial reports that HHS was supposed to submit to Congress, starting in 1988, detailing the improvements it made every two years to vaccine safety. HHS stonewalled ICAN for eight months refusing to provide any substantive response to this request.
ICAN was therefore forced to file a lawsuit to force HHS to either provide copies of its biennial vaccine safety reports to Congress or admit it never filed these reports.
HHS had to finally and shockingly admit that it never, not even once, submitted a single biennial report to Congress detailing the improvements in vaccine safety. This speaks volumes to the seriousness by which vaccine safety is treated at HHS and heightens the concern that HHS doesn’t have a clue as to the actual safety profile of the now 29 doses, and growing, of vaccines given by one year of age.
HHS has abandoned its vaccine safety responsibilities that were stipulated in the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986 (The Act) . They have failed to conduct the proper science required to demonstrate vaccine safety. The science that ensures the “safety of the 71 vaccine doses injected into children pre-and-postnatally pursuant to HHS’s vaccine schedule”. What will happen when enough people realise this truth?
December 2018 – ICAN’s response to HHS – HERE
October 12, 2017 ICAN’s first lawsuit, after filing 11 specific questions to the HHS. This is one:
Contrary to drugs “vaccines are not required to undergo long-term double-blind inert-placebo controlled trials to assess safety. In fact, not a single one of the clinical trials for the childhood vaccines given to babies and toddlers had an inert placebo control group, they used another vaccine. Further, most pediatric vaccines currently on the market have been approved based on studies with inadequate followup periods of only a few days or weeks.” So ICAN asked the HHS to:
“The reality is that none – save one – of the pediatric vaccines was licensed based on a placebo controlled clinical trial!” This, together with only “short safety review periods in these trials”.
HHS has not provided “proof or assurance that vaccines are safe or that they have been properly safety tested.”
As the below table and “HHS’s own documentation show, there is not a single vaccine brand routinely injected into American children between day one and 6 months of life that was licensed based on a clinical trial which included a placebo-control group. Only one out of 30 vaccines brands routinely injected into American children 18 months to 8 years was licensed based on a clinical trial which had a placebo-control group
ICAN even graciously provided HHS and the FDA an additional opportunity to provide proof that these clinical trials did include a placebo control. No proof has ever been provided.
ICAN sent “every single scientist within the CDC, FDA, and NIH who has any involvement with vaccines… their own package containing a copy of ICAN’s letter exchange with HHS” regarding the disconnect between claims and ability to prove claims.
Because of ICAN’s knowledge of childhood vaccines never been trialed with a placebo control, when the COVID-19 trials started, ICAN filed a forceful petition “demanding that the FDA mandate that all clinical trials of COVID-19 vaccines use a placebo control as well as track safety long-term in a properly sized trial.”
Nine days after ICAN filed its petition, on June 30, 2020, the FDA changed course and issued emergency guidance to industry that all COVID-19 clinical trials must use a placebo control.
The CDC cannot scientifically support their claim that “vaccines do not cause autism” for vaccines given to babies during their first 6 months of life. Public health spokes people make statements like “Study after study have been done and have shown vaccines do not cause autism” [@1:12]. Yet under FOIA, the CDC cannot produce even one study to support their broad claim.
“In a federal lawsuit, filed by ICAN, the Center for Disease Control (CDC) has failed to produce scientific studies that back up its long-declared assertion that vaccines given to babies (<1 year) do not cause autism.
Despite this claim, studies have found between 40% and 70% of parents with an autistic child continue to blame vaccines for their child’s autism, typically pointing to vaccines given during the first six months of life.”
March 5, 2020 – The Highwire Ep 153 – WATCH @27:30
Merck’s Chickenpox vaccine, VARIVAX is produced by growing chicken pox virus on the cell strain from aborted fetal tissue, it was licensed by the FDA in 1995 for people aged 12 months and older.
Through the 1980’s chicken pox was a rite of passage, nothing to worry about, so why was a vaccine “mandated”? Because of WHO’s “cost-effective” analysis!
VARIVAX should never have been licensed – the FDA licensed this product based on one fake “placebo” controlled trial, with less than 1,000 children, that reviewed safety for only around 2 months, and then vaccinated the “placebo” group at nine months!
The public expects vaccines to have been safety tested, that long-term placebo-controlled clinical trials have been conducted with typically tens of thousands of participants and monitored for years to assess potential long-term health effects. We we are told by the FDA and TGA that vaccines are “rigorously” tested and assessed by them.
To ensure safety testing did occurred, ICAN demanded that the FDA produce copies of all the clinical trial reports relied upon to license Merck’s chicken pox vaccine. The FDA refused for 14 months and was force under court order to produce the documents.
A total of 10,796 pages were produced encompassing all the clinical trial reports submitted by Merck to get the VARIVAX license approved.
Not a single study included an inert placebo control such as saline, the total study group was less than 1000 participants (tiny for Phase 3) and children were only monitored for clinical complaints for 56 days (2 months) and then for an additional 14 days thereafter for serious adverse reactions!
A serious underpowered study in which 4 serious adverse events occurred in the treatment group (491 children). “Merck’s paid investigator did not consider these serious adverse events to be related to VARIVAX.”
The control group was unblinded after 9 months and given VARIVAX, thus long-term safety study are not possible.
In one small study ear infections, upper respiratory illness, and systemic clinical complaints were noted in the treatment groups, compared to the no treatment group.
“The rest of the trials produced by the FDA were not blinded, not randomized, nor did they include a control group. These trials could therefore not provide scientifically valid data to support the product’s safety for licensure.”
Long story short. They didn’t conduct adequate safety studies yet this product is mandated to attend education settings, it is a liability free, guaranteed sale for the manufacturer!
ICAN received intel in 2017 that the clinical trials that the FDA relied upon to license the Hepatitis B vaccines was only reviewed for safety for just a few days after injection! ICAN wanted to find out if this was actually true, so they followed up with a FOI request to the FDA.
US Congress mandated that the FDA only license drugs which have been proven to be “safe and effective” in a clinical trial, and five days of post-injection safety data would be patently insufficient to demonstrate safety.
So ICAN’s attorneys had to sue the FDA and HHS to obtain the clinical trials, specifically requesting all trials that were used to license Engerix-B, where safety was reviewed for more than 7 days.
The FDA and Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) are unable to provide a single clinical trial where safety followup exceeded 7 days post-injection of babies!
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) childhood vaccine schedule recommends universal vaccination of all infants with a Hepatitis B vaccine at birth, 1- and 6-months of age (3 injections in the first 6 months of life).
ICAN submitted a FOIA request which “sought the clinical trails relied upon by the FDA prior to approving any currently licensed influenza vaccine or Tdap vaccine for use in pregnant women as an indicated uses.”
On November 9, 2018 in a letter the FDA responded “Clinical studies for TdaP and inactivated influenza vaccines did not specifically enroll pregnant women…we have no records responsive to your requests.“
Influenza vaccines are recommended during pregnancy, but the FDA have no studies to support their alleged safety claim. Similarly with the Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis vaccine administered during pregnancy.
On July 29, 2020, after months of false claims and objections, the CDC finally conceded that it could not find a single study comparing health outcomes between vaccinated and unvaccinated children and that it “has not conducted a study of health outcomes in vaccinated vs unvaccinated populations.”
“…the CDC’s childhood vaccine schedule over the last 30 years from 8 vaccine injections to 50 vaccine injections (plus 2 injections during pregnancy) has occurred in lockstep with the increase in the rate of autoimmune, developmental and neurological disorders in children from 12.8% to 54%.“
March 1, 2023 – ICAN: CDC and NIH Unable to Provide a Single Study to Support the Safety of Injecting Aluminum Adjuvants Despite its Widespread Use in Childhood Vaccines – READ, The Highwire Ep 309 – EXCERPT
The FOIA request began February 19, 2019 asking for “Copies of any human or animal studies involving the subcutaneous or intramuscular injection [as opposed to ingestion studies] of aluminum adjuvant relied upon by the CDC to establish the safety of injectiong infants and children with aluminum hydroxide, aluminum phosphate or amorphous aluminum hydroxyphosphate sulfate.”
The reply after 3 years: “A search of [the agency’s] records failed to reveal any documents pertaining to your request”- They’ve never done an injection study even an animal study!
Del Bigtree lays out an alarming example: Consider the Hepatitis B vaccine given to day-old infants the “safety” study relied on was an oral study [ingested not injected] in rats, which determine a maximum toxic load of 25 micrograms (or 0.025mg) ingested per day. How would the mice react to 25micrograms injected?
The Hep B vaccine (Engerix-B) label states each dose has 250 micrograms (0.25 mg) of aluminum adjuvant which is injected into the body of day-old infants. “Each 0.5-mL pediatric/adolescent dose contains 10 mcg of HBsAg adsorbed on 0.25 mg aluminum as aluminum hydroxide” – see Page 11 – PDF] – Aluminium in other vaccines – HERE
Now consider 2013 Save the Children REPORT – “The United States has the highest first-day death rate in the industrialized world. An estimated 11,300 [pg 9] newborn babies die each year in the United States on the day they are born. This is 50 percent more first-day deaths than all other industrialized countries combined.” – NBC – READ, CBS – READ
