This lawsuit, drafted by California attorney Rick Jaffe, is without exaggeration, one of the most important lawsuits ever filed in modern medical history. I explain why in this must read article.
Executive summary
Hours ago, Sacramento attorney Rick Jaffe filed what is arguably one of the most important lawsuits ever filed in modern medical history.
The plaintiffs accuse the AAP of operating as the central coordinator in a racketeering enterprise involving pharmaceutical manufacturers (Pfizer, Merck, GlaxoSmithKline, Sanofi Pasteur) and affiliated organizations. The alleged purpose:
To promote, financially benefit from, and protect the ever-expanding childhood vaccination schedule through systematic fraud, misinformation, and suppression of independent science.
They argue that this has:
led to widespread health harm to children,
destroyed the careers of physicians who questioned the schedule, and
defrauded families into consenting to vaccinations under false pretenses.
The Core Allegation
The suit claims AAP knowingly misrepresented both safety and efficacy evidence by asserting that the childhood vaccine schedule:
has been “fully tested,”
“proven safe and effective,” and
has “saved millions of lives.”
and that none of these statements are supported by actual cumulative outcome studies.
