48. "Trust" in vaccines
Some people here want us to put our "trust" in vaccines, even though long term studies have not been done on the cervical vaccine, studies on the combinations of vaccines have not been done, and in this case there wasn't even a true "control" group, because the "control group" had the aluminum adjuvant. Why was that necessary and desired by Merck? The only answer to that question is that they suspect that the adjuvant is not inert. If it is not inert, and has effects, then THAT aspect of the vaccine should be studied.

And I have never understood why regular tort law doesn't allow for lawsuits. In tort law, "fault" has to be proven. Why should I want to have a vaccine when the MANUFACTERER won't even stand behind their product? There would be no need for an exclusion from lawsuits if there weren't problems with vaccines that involved "fault" by the manufacturer. The "bad batches" comes to mind...............
