ICAN Lead attorney @AaronSiri explains why framing vaccines as their own unique category, a religion, is the key that unlocks it for people.

Because here's where a lot of people who are trying to wrap their minds around this are: if the CDC, the FDA, all 50 state health agencies, and the entire medical profession got vaccines wrong... what else can't you trust? That's a terrifying place to land. It threatens the whole worldview.

But vaccines aren't like other products. No other product has had 40 years of completely unfettered promotion in the form of billions of dollars a year, no serious counter-pressure, and liability immunity baked in by law since 1986.

That immunity removed the only thing that keeps any industry honest - the ability to be sued.

No liability meant no economic incentive for safety, and no real pre- or post-licensure safety testing. It corrupted the agencies that were supposed to be watching.

Once people understand that vaccines sit in their own unique bucket, and that the liability shield is what broke the system, they don't have to blow up everything they believe. They just have to understand one thing.

And then it all makes sense.
