Episode 455: ARTIFICIAL PANDEMIC

<description>ICAN lead counsel Aaron Siri, esq., breaks down ACIP’s historic decision to end the recommendation of universal Hepatitis B vaccination at birth for babies of healthy, Hep-B–negative mothers—moving it to age 2 months and “shared decision making.” He details major gaps in the safety data, evidence of harm buried in our federal injury programs, and an ethical crisis in the U.S. of pressuring parents to vaccinate their children under threat of CPS. Siri also contrasts U.S. policy with nations like mandate-free Denmark, which recommends far fewer vaccines while enjoying better health outcomes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Become a supporter of this podcast: &lt;a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-highwire-with-del-bigtree--3620606/support?utm_source=rss&amp;utm_medium=rss&amp;utm_campaign=rss"&gt;https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-highwire-with-del-bigtree--3620606/support&lt;/a&gt;.</description>

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced that the Office of Civil Rights is investigating reports of a child with a religious exemption being vaccinated without parental consent. At the same time, several states are pushing bills that would allow minors to be vaccinated without their parents’ knowledge, highlighting a broader medical-system struggle—from childhood shots to psychiatric drugs for veterans—over consent, transparency, and personal autonomy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Become a supporter of this podcast: &lt;a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-highwire-with-del-bigtree--3620606/support?utm_source=rss&amp;utm_medium=rss&amp;utm_campaign=rss"&gt;https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-highwire-with-del-bigtree--3620606/support&lt;/a&gt;.</description>
