“The only problem with your line of thinking is that the EUA has nothing to do with the legal immunity. “
That’s in quotes, it’s not my thinking. I do think he’s right. It looks like the FDA deliberately put the covid vaccines in CICP instead of VICP for liability reasons.

I think we’re confused about this because we’re mixing two different things. I don’t think the vaccine manufacturer’s liability is tied to the CICP vs. VICP designations. As far as I know, those payments for damaging side effects are made by the U.S. government, not the vaccine manufacturers. I believe the vaccine producers are immune from civil liability in BOTH cases.
