Today American Children Get 3 Times As Many Vaccinations
Today, our children are being given three times as many vaccinations as they got in the early 1980’s. [13] [14][15] Three times as many vaccinations means three times as much profit for drug companies and doctors selling vaccines.
The base cost for a child to get every government recommended vaccine in a private pediatrician’s office has increased from $80 per child in 1986[16] to a whopping $2200 per child in 2011,[17] and that doesn’t include physician office administration fees. The federal government now spends nearly $4 billion dollars per year to purchase vaccines for public health clinics,[18] where half of America’s children are vaccinated.
Eight Big Drug Corporations Selling Vaccines Get Total Liability Shield
In 1986, there were three major drug corporations selling vaccines in the U.S. (Merck, Lederle, Connaught) and now there are eight (Merck, Pfizer, Sanofi Pasteur, GlaxoSmithKline, Novartis, Astra Zeneca, CSL Biotherapies, Emergent BioSolutions). That is because, in 1986, Pharma blackmailed Congress into giving them partial liability protection from vaccine injury lawsuits[21] by suggesting they would have to abandon the U.S. childhood vaccine market without a liability shield.
