One of the best videos seen for a long time. Listen to the first 4 min which captures the whole thing. The only incentive for good science on vaccines is repelling all laws given them no liability. https://t.co/EUiavrXiSy

Government doesn't really want to fund the studies that are going to smash an industry and lead to a product being withdrawn from the market. The way that you get good science in connection with dangerous products is through the courts, is through the toxic tort system. Basically, the plaintiff's lawyers will take a look at whatever data they can find about a toxic product they will calculate the odds of winning a court case a toxic tort case and then they will actually go out and fun the scientific research to figure out how dangerous the product actually is.
So industry is not doing this.
You actually need the court system, and you need Deep Pockets plaintiff's attorneys to spend $10 million, $20 million, what have you on a study, so you actually have the data to find out how harmful a toxic product is. That's how our system works the pharmaceutical industry knew that. They were losing in court in the'70s and early 1980s when it came to lawsuits over Harms for vaccines. So in 1986, they got Congress to pass the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, 1986, and that gave them liability protection.
