Dr. Richard Moskowitz Presents Vaccine Policy A Wish List for RFK, Jr

Today is one of those days when I am particularly proud of our content. Thank you to Dr. Richard Moskowitz for his many years of contributions. Neither our contributors nor our readers are monolithic, nor do we we require them to be. His recommendations to our new HHS Secretary are below. Dr. M has written several books, including Vaccines A Reappraisaland his newest is Conscientious Objector Why I Became a Homeopath.  He is a Harvard trained MD who discovered that “VERITAS” is not always what it seems.

By Dr. Richard Moskowitz

            RFK Jr. was a hero of mine for a long time, because of his ground-breaking work exposing corruption and pseudoscience in the drug industry, and by the vaccine makers in particular. I was horrified when he threw the considerable support for his Presidential campaign to Trump, comprising millions of votes that were undeniably a major if not decisive contribution to his election victory. 

            It is certainly true that the Democratic Party wanted no part of him; that its leaders still share the widespread public consensus that vaccines are among the greatest achievements of modern medicine; and that Trump and the GOP were alert enough to seize upon the issue, and won over all those votes with no political or moral commitment to reining in the drug industry.

            At any rate, with the new MAGA administration in office, Mr. Kennedy as Secretary of HHS has the authority to formulate new policies for our health care system, which is in such dire need of them. Whether he has the political power to bring them about is another question.  But it still seems appropriate to consider the changes that are most necessary and desirable in our vaccine policy.   

1. Repeal the National Child Vaccine Injury Act of 1986.

            The first that comes to mind calls for an Act of Congress, which HHS does not control; but RFK Jr.’s advocacy will be a crucial if not decisive step in securing its enactment. Its purpose should be to repeal the 1986 law that excused the vaccine manufacturers from all moral and financial liability for the deaths and injuries resulting from their products, and created two Federal agencies to supervise and adjudicate such claims at taxpayer expense, namely, VAERS, the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, and VICP, the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. 

            The law came about because of widespread public outrage over a large number of successful damage suits on behalf of children suffering encephalopathy or brain damage from the DPT vaccine, which generated an outcry to investigate and uncover the true extent of vaccine injuries in the population as a whole, and to provide prompt and adequate compensation for them. It was supposed to be “a no-fault program under which awards can be made to the vaccine-injured quickly, easily, and with certainty and generosity,” to substitute for the expensive, prolonged, and adversarial litigation process.

            At the last minute, the industry threatened to stop making vaccines altogether unless they were excused from all liability, an ultimatum to which the Congress abjectly agreed, amounting to a free ride granted to no other industry, and later upheld by the Supreme Court on the grounds that vaccines are “unavoidably unsafe,” and therefore always in need of such protection!

            The reality thus became precisely the opposite of what the public wanted and the Congress originally intended.   The VAERS file was limited to eyewitness reports filed by the victims themselves, with few doctors motivated to do so; with the public largely unaware of its existence; with the agency making no effort to investigate claims as legitimate or otherwise; and with reports submitted to it written off as “anecdotal evidence” without scientific backing. In consequence, adverse events are mostly underreported, representing at most 10% of the actual total, according to the CDC, or 1%, according to the FDA.  Those that are reported are only accepted as vaccine-related if they involve the few complications already identified by the industry, and occur within a narrow time frame, rarely more than 2 weeks post-vaccination, ignoring the chronic dimension within most of them occur.

            The VICP process is likewise heavily stacked against claimants.  They must conform to the same rigid and restrictive standards set by VAERS, and then prevail in a simulated trial that often takes months or years be scheduled, must convince a Federal officer who openly fraternizes with and relies upon the expertise of the doctor supplied by the industry., and doesn’t even provide the protections of a proper court trial.  Very few claims are actually compensated.

            The first step toward a humane and sensible vaccine policy must be to repeal the NCVIA, and hold the industry liable for the adverse events resulting from their vaccinations, adults as well as children. 

2. Take VAERS claims seriously.

            Make the public aware that adverse events from vaccines are important to know about, encourage victims, doctors, and nurses to report them, and investigate every one carefully.  Don’t exclude complaints developing or becoming diagnosable after weeks and months; many adverse reactions develop slowly and are vague and nonspecific at first. Don’t limit the search to those few specific diagnoses already identified.  Apart from sudden death and serious, crippling diseases arising promptly after a vaccine, the major impact of vaccination to prevent acute diseases is to promote chronic complaints instead.

3. Study the all-purpose morbidity and mortality.

            In addition to preventing specific acute diseases, vaccines also act nonspecifically, by activating chronic disease tendencies that are already latent, and exacerbating those that are already present.  These are different for each individual, and encompass the entire spectrum of chronic responses seen in the population as a whole.  Safety trials must therefore be conducted for some years, long enough to take in the chronic dimension; and the control group must receive placebo, not the corresponding adjuvants, since these are significantly toxic in their own right. The studies should compare the all-purpose morbidity and mortality in vaccinated and control groups to provide the full picture. These investigations must be conducted by experienced professionals who are independent of the drug industry.

4. End the mandates.

            Because the vaccines are admittedly and indeed “unavoidably” unsafe, they should be made purely optional, available to those who want them, provided they are fully informed of their risks, as determined above.

5. Close the revolving door between government and industry.

            To protect the independence of the CDC, FDA, and NIH, these Federal health agencies should be funded by the taxpayers, not the drug industry or its affiliates. Its senior officials and staff should not be rewarded with industry appointments, nor should industry executives be rewarded with appointments to the professional civil service.

6. Perform genetic analysis of acute disease outbreaks.

            The public ahould be informed about the acute diseases that we vaccinate against.  Since 2019, for example, the DNA of measles cases studied in local outbreaks primarily matched the genotype of the vaccine virus rather than the wild type, indicating that the disease itself has mutated, and that vaccination is responsible for spreading it, such that the unvaccinated are more likely to be acutely sick and therefore unjustly blamed for it.

7. End gain-of-function research.

            There is considerable evidence that the SARS-Covid-2 virus was bioengineered in the Wuhan lab, with funding assistance from the NIH and the EcoHealth Alliance since the early days of the first Trump administration in 2017.  In any case, bioweapons labs in the United States and other developed countries had been investigating natural viruses and developing more virulent versions for decades, until several lab leaks prompted President Obama to discontinue such research.  The SARS-Covid-2 killed mainly the elderly and chronically ill in nursing homes, and thus functioned effectively as a stealth bioweapon. It is difficult to imagine any other reason for developing it, whether it was released by accident or otherwise; and deliberate use of it would constitute a serious crime against humanity.  Such research should therefore be outlawed throughout the world.

            Bringing about these changes will not be easy.  But I have no doubt that they are all well within Mr. Kennedy’s purview, and that he would indeed like to help bring them about, regardless of the wisdom or unwisdom of the political decision he made to secure that opportunity.
