One of the most pressing issues facing the scientific and medical communities is the catastrophic loss of the public’s trust in accepting their advice and/or recommendations. And it’s overwhelmingly due to their own actions and statements.
There are books' worth of examples worth of examples. Such as the early part of the pandemic when they flip-flopped on masks, from claiming that they didn’t work to stating that getting 80% of the public to wear them would end the pandemic in a matter of weeks, to their claims that the lab leak was a racist conspiracy theory, and all the way to absurdities such as predicting the Super Bowl in Florida would be a "superspreader event."
Or the mass panic when states like Mississippi and Texas ended their mask mandates, or when the mandate on airplanes was lifted…and nothing happened afterward.
But certainly nothing may have damaged their trust more than the steadfast assertions that the COVID vaccines were able to stop infection and transmission. And one study and analysis from a heavily credentialed group of experts on the vaccines shows how committed they were to misleading people in order to suit their political and ideological aims.
COVID vaccines did not prevent over 100 million cases in the United States
An analysis conducted by extremely experienced academics published at the Commonwealth Fund exemplifies this practice. Claiming that COVID vaccines were miraculous treatments that prevented millions of cases and millions of deaths. But first, it’s important to define what the "Commonwealth Fund is" and how organizations like this serve a very specific purpose.
Directly from their website they describe their mission as to "promote a high-performing, equitable health care system that achieves better access, improved quality, and greater efficiency, particularly for society’s most vulnerable, including people of color, people with low income...

Are you alive today? If you didn’t die from COVID, HIV/AIDS, Ebola, SARS, swine flu, anthrax, tuberculosis, malaria, or other diarrheal diseases, you have the great Dr. Tony Fauci to thank. pic.twitter.com/9O1ejyBhLL— Kerry Kennedy (@KerryKennedyRFK) April 25, 2026
Not only that, it did not prevent me from getting the bug THREE times!
I’m just here to see the covidiots once again rant about how everyone but them are wrong and only the science supporting pro vaccine propaganda is the real science.
At this point no amount of evidence will convince the vaccine cult they were dupped.
I did not get the bug, even though I was frequently in the same house with three relatives who did get the bug.
I’m supposed to dead. According to Dr. Fraudchi.
“COVID Vaccines Didn’t Save Millions Of Lives”
They didn’t save those lives because the vaccines were not made available soon enough.
I advocated for a Fibonacci distribution starting in April 2020.
About 500,000 American deaths could have been prevented for years....
The person next to him definitely died. He must’ve reanimated the corpse.
The H1N1 epidemic ended in January 2010 when Hussein O and Plugs (before he bacame Potato) stopped official recording of new cases.
I believe the 2009 episode of H1N1 was studied and war gamed as a Wasted Opportunity.
“Never let a crisis go to waste.”
My grandmother says: Bless Your Heart.
LOL ... I haven’t checked the replies ... I wonder if anyone has told her (Kerry Kennedy) just that! 😂
Thank goodness they WERE NOT rolled out, sooner.
There would be even MORE deaths!
No but they did cost millions of lives. And counting.
Missed your appointment with an exorcist did ya?
I don’t believe a word of this. I have it on good authority, the best authority, you won’t believe how good the authority is that the “three vaccines all are very, very good,” “beautiful vaccines”, ”one of the greatest achievements of mankind”.
They didn’t save those lives because the vaccines were treating the wrong problem.
