I would not go so far as to use the word "fraud." Vaccines are not an exact science, and neither is predicting a pandemic. They were wrong. Millions of dollars were wasted instead of thousands of human lives. There is something to be said for admitting culpability, I admire that, it's so unusual.

I know that you know more about the specific issues than I do, GOZO, I was merely addressing the challenges of predicting the strain, designing the vaccine itself, and protecting the populus from a pandemic.

If there have been abuses, such as using expired vaccine, and tainted vaccine, I am just not up on that information.

My concern is that small children and the elderly receive the protection they may need. My mom is 80 and has one lung, she got a flu shot, and one for pneumonia, and I'm glad, and so was she.

How can they get the protection they need when pre-marketing studies are not conducted, when research is in house and fraudulent, when valid research is covered-up and attacked, and our corporate/government is only concerned about money?
