In this episode of The Highwire, host Del Bigtree talks to attorney Aaron Siri about the hysterical establishment reactions to the idea of delaying the hepatitis B (HepB) vaccine for most infants who are not at risk of the infection.
The CDC’s vaccine advisory committee under HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., recently voted to delay the first does of the three-dose series until after the age of two months.
This policy change is very marginal in nature, and yet it provoked sheer outrage among public vaccine policy apologists.
The objections illuminate how the practice of vaccination is not grounded in science but faith.
Siri usefully observes the following critical self-contradiction by those arguing against this change in CDC policy:
- When there’s an absence of data on effectiveness, it’s a reason to continue an existing CDC vaccine recommendation.
- When the absence of data is on safety, it’s a reason to continue an existing recommendation.
And, of course, anyone who doesn’t agree with that illogic is an “anti-science” “anti-vaxxer”.
The point made about the need to know the “number needed to vaccinate” (NNV) to prevent a single case of chronic HepB infection born to a non-carrier mother is also critical if you want to understand the “controversy” about the very marginal CDC policy update that the vaccine faithful are up in arms about.
And Siri also asks the critical question of why vaccine manufacturers need to have legal immunity against injury lawsuits if their products are so safe.
To learn more about the criminal insanity of the CDC’s universal recommendation to indiscriminately vaccinate all newborn babies on the first day of their lives, see my article for Children’s Health Defense:
And here’s a four-minute summary:
Siri was also involved in the recent Supreme Court ruling opening the path to religous exemptions that I expressed mixed feelings about here:
And Siri also testified at the Senate hearing in September at which he revealed data from a censored study showing that unvaccinated children are healthier. For that fully story, see here:
Siri is awesome. I’m reading his book “Vaccines, Amen” right now, and it is very very good.
I’m wondering, though… where does he stand on Israel? His bio at the end of the book states: “…[Aaron Siri] clerked for the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Israel where he advised the Chief Justice of relevant American, English and International Law precedent, including removal of Israel’s citizens from the Gaza Strip”.
I’m not to sure what to make of it….
It would be so awesome to apply a mind as sharp as Siri’s to take apart the deception of Israeli hasbara the way he applied it take away Big Pharma’s lies. But, I don’t think it will ever happen…
Perhaps I want too much. We need one issue people – they are more effective this way. And yet, there’s more than one important issue in the world, and when you see the big picture, all those issues are connected.
And here is my opportunity to thank you once again, Jeremy, for being on top of it on both Israel AND vaccines.
It is unfortunate that this is so much overlap with Zionist ideology within the health freedom movement. I was disturbed and disheartened by the responses of many of my own readers after 10/7 when I started writing again about the Israel-Palestine conflict and speaking out against Israel’s genocide in Gaza. I don’t think I’d ever gotten so much hate mail, including the usual stupid accusations of “anti-Semite”. (Never mind both the Foreword and Introduction to my book Obstacle to Peace being written by Jews.)
That’s a pretty cryptic statement about Siri advising Israel’s chief justice about “removal of Israel’s citizens from the Gaza Strip”. My guess is this means he pointed out the illegality of Israel’s settlements there, but it could also mean he took the view that Jewish settlers should not be forcibly removed as occurred in 2005.
I’m of the view myself that international law requires a cessation of settlement activity but not necessarily removal of Jews already living in occupied Palestinian territory. I argue this in the Conclusion to Obstacle to Peace:
