Is it illegal to question the safety of the polio vaccine, even if you are right?

The US government has stated that the polio vaccine is safe and even if you are correct that it is not safe, your views cannot be allowed to exist. Will they do the same for the COVID vaccine?

This is page 255 in the 1984 Federal Register which says you can’t question the safety of the polio vaccine, even if you are correct:

However, although the continued availability of the vaccine may not be in immediate jeopardy, any possible doubts, whether or not well founded, about the safety of the vaccine cannot be allowed to exist in view of the need to assure that the vaccine will continue to be used to the maximum extent consistent with the nation’s public health objectives.

 

I confess that I haven’t examined the CFR’s in detail to see how that intent is expressed in the law, but the statement that you aren’t allowed to challenge the government narrative, no matter how well supported your argument is, is troubling to me.

What do you think?

That would be an unConstitutional law.

1A trumps their opinions. Say as you will.

I remember my grand mother telling me the polio shot was not safe. Parent took their children to the doctor fearful that the shot may kill their child but getting polio was even worse so they let their children get the shot.
After reading the history of the vaccine it seems that in 1955 two secondary companies made improper vaccine and children died from their versions. The vaccine was pulled but the taint of the deaths put fear into the populous and perpetuated for decades.
This is why good vaccines should not be rushed and crappy ones not be used, or be voluntary if no other choice is present.

It also crosses the boundary from science into secular religion.

Hmmmm....whether or not, well founded....

I think we also cannot compare polio to covid 19. Polio was really a terrible thing. I went to school with a girl who had to wear a heavy leg brace to walk. I think I was in second grade when they lined us all up and the school nurse handed out the pink sugar cubes.

I personally never heard of anybody who had an adverse effect from it although I’m sure there were some. Most drugs have a possibility of an adverse effect. Even penicillin.

Well, unlike the Covid “vax”, one can’t get a little polio after taking that vax.

I would tend to disagree; both my brother and I were diagnosed with organ damage from polio by Doctors after MRI`s and X-rays. Minor damage, not disabling, but damage easily detected by the expert doctors from Stanford and UC Med Center.

What do you think

I think your crazy to question the safety of the polio vaccine. Do you want your child crippled? Then go ahead, don't give it

The Cutter Labs case-somehow live polio virus was introduced into the vaccine.

So, one out of how many? Compared how many millions of people who’ve taken the jab and gotten Covid SEVERAL TIMES SINCE? Apples and oranges.

Something so good that the government demands you get it to attend their public indoctrination centers.
