Aaron Siri: The One Product You Can't Sue in America
- Aaron Siri's deposition of Dr. Stanley Plotkin, the leading vaccine scientist, revealed that the Hepatitis B vaccine was licensed based on a clinical trial with only 147 children, five days of safety monitoring, and no control group.
- Siri argues that the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act granted pharmaceutical manufacturers immunity from liability, removing market incentives to conduct rigorous safety testing and design safer products.
- Plotkin, the principal investigator of the trial he testified about, could not recall basic details of the study's safety duration, suggesting safety is treated as an afterthought rather than a core focus.
- Unlike other products subject to liability, vaccines face no design-defect lawsuits, eliminating the economic pressure that normally drives manufacturers to improve safety profiles over time.
- Measles mortality in the United States declined over 98% between 1900 and the vaccine's 1963 introduction, suggesting other factors (sanitation, nutrition, medical care) drove the decline, not the vaccine.
- Siri contends that informed consent is violated when government mandates prevent unvaccinated individuals from attending school or participating in civil society, regardless of their knowledge level.
