WOJAK, M.D. NOV 11 READ IN APP Most people assume vaccines are rigorously tested for safety before being injected into millions of children. They’re not. What passes for safety testing in the vaccine world isn’t science—it’s theater. No placebo controls. Absurdly short follow-up periods. Underpowered studies. To any reasonable person, this would be considered fraud. But when it comes to vaccines, it’s standard practice. No placebo controls To determine whether a new drug is safe, you test it against a placebo. A placebo is something inert, meaning it produces no effect on the human body. Without this neutral baseline, there’s no way to know for sure what a product does. It’s what allows you to tell whether the outcomes you see are caused by the product you’re testing—or not. Yet not a single routine childhood vaccine in the United States was licensed based on a placebo-controlled clinical trial. Not one. The FDA confirms this in the package inserts for each vaccine, available on their website. That alone should stop the conversation. Because without a placebo control, claims about vaccine safety rest on faith, not fact. What they use instead Instead of a placebo, vaccines are tested against other vaccines, or injections containing active ingredients like aluminum adjuvants. If both test and control groups show similar rates of adverse effects, the manufacturer can claim, “See? No difference—the vaccine is safe.” It’s like comparing whiskey to vodka and claiming whiskey has no effect because both get you just as drunk. The FDA allows this practice. The CDC defends it. The media ignores it. Here’s a snapshot showing what (if any) controls were relied upon to license every routine childhood vaccine in the United States: Aaron Siri, Vaccines, Amen (2025) Vaccine trial pyramid scheme You might think that, even though none of the vaccines are tested against a placebo, surely they’re at least compared to something that was. They’re not. Newer vaccines are tested against older ones—but those older vaccines were often tested against yet another vaccine instead of a placebo. And that one? Same story. Safety claims for each vaccine rest on the assumption that the vaccine it was compared to was properly tested—but peel back the layers, and there’s no placebo control anywhere along the chain. None of the routine childhood vaccines were licensed based on trials that used a placebo—or even a control that was. Image from An Inconvenient Study (2025), with data from Aaron Siri, Vaccines, Amen (2025) Absurdly short safety review periods Even if we ignore the lack of placebo controls, the safety review periods for vaccines are absurdly short—sometimes only three days. Childhood vaccines typically get just a few days or weeks of monitoring—never more than six months—yet developmental, neurological, and immune disorders (such as autism, ADHD, and allergies) often don’t appear until years later. In other words, these trials cannot capture harms that emerge years after vaccination. ICAN, None of the vaccines recommended by the CDC for routine childhood injection was ever licensed based on a long-term placebo-controlled trial (October 2023) By contrast, while routine childhood vaccines are monitored for only a brief period, other widely used drugs undergo multi-year trials before approval. Aaron Siri, Vaccines, Amen (2025) Such brief follow-ups for vaccines cannot capture long-term risks. Underpowered studies Even if there were placebo-controlled trials—which there aren’t—and even if the follow-up periods were long enough—which they aren’t—many vaccine studies would still fail to reveal real harms because they are severely underpowered (meaning they include too few participants to detect rare or serious adverse effects). Many routine childhood vaccine trials enroll only a few hundred or a few thousand children. If a vaccine causes a chronic health condition in 1 in 1,000 children, a trial of 500 would likely miss it. Post-licensure monitoring Some may claim that VAERS (Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System) monitors vaccines post-licensure to ensure their long-term safety. In reality, VAERS is a passive system that captures “fewer than 1% of vaccine adverse events”—meaning most vaccine injuries are never recorded. Conclusion None of the routine childhood vaccines were ever licensed based on long-term, placebo-controlled trials. When injuries occur, agencies like the FDA, CDC, and HHS dismiss them with the standard line: “No causal link has been established.” They never explain why no causal link has been established—because without placebo-controlled trials, there is no way to prove it. The system is structured to avoid detecting the very harms it is supposed to protect the public against. The failure to conduct long-term, placebo-controlled trials for the licensure of routine childhood vaccines is scientifically and morally unjustifiable. And it remains standard practice.
