      The ACIP meetings are open, as are VRBPAC. There is also public comment. I've watched many of them to keep informed.

      Ok. 400,000 adverse reports indicate safety? It took 30 years to accumulate 800,000 reports. No concern at all. Got it

      Are you really suggesting tgat 172 vaccines deaths a day in last 12 days should be addressed in 6? 12 months? Are you really a MD? A real MD is an advocate for patient safety. Primum non nocere

      Either you are being deliberately obtuse or you're just disingenuous at best. Heightened knowledge about VAERS during this major pandemic is leading to numerous unsubstantiated reporting - case reports need to conclude. The vaccine doesn't grant immortality; coincidences happen.

      So when the Swine Flu vaccine was withdrawn for deaths, where they all anti-vaxxers? You throw the term around as if caring for patient outcomes is unAmerican. Caring for patient outcomes is why you claim an MD after you name and mine too. 9000 dead. Some old. Some 13 yo. Awful

      Actually, over the weekend I tried to do my own searches of #VAERS to see if I could replicate (or at least approximately replicate) that number of 9,048. Using the broadest search criteria I could, I could only get less than half that number.

          It's possible that I'm doing something wrong, but, given that this figure comes from antivaxxer @RobertKennedyJr's @ChildrensHD, I strongly suspect that there's something wrong with HIS #VAERS search strategy, not mine.

          Bless you for doing this it seems like thankless work I’m sure. But doubtless you are saving lives.

          So, out of curiosity, I did another search. Basically, I searched #VAERS for all instances of "death" in the database, regardless of vaccine or dates of administration, onset of adverse event, or death. The total? 6,286 deaths. In ALL of VAERS. I smell a rat.

          Seriously, how did @RobertKennedyJr come up with 9,048 deaths just from #CovidVaccine in #VAERS? I can't replicate the number with searches using ridiculously generous criteria, or even including deaths associated with all vaccines, not just #COVID19 vaccines.
