Right. And Vioxx was perfectly safe until it was proven to cause heart attacks. I don’t believe the mainstream medical press any more than the MSM. Vaccines are a goldmine for Big Pharma.
“And Vioxx was perfectly safe until it was proven to cause heart attacks.”
In 2005, advisory panels in both the U.S. and Canada encouraged the return of rofecoxib to the market, stating that rofecoxib’s benefits outweighed the risks for some patients. The FDA advisory panel voted 17-15 to allow the drug to return to the market despite being found to increase heart risk. The vote in Canada was 12-1, and the Canadian panel noted that the cardiovascular risks from rofecoxib seemed to be no worse than those from ibuprofenthough the panel recommended that further study was needed for all NSAIDs to fully understand their risk profiles.

Not quite, but your point is a good one.
In this case the link between vioxx and increased chance for heart problems was determined in long range large number studies.
And that is exactly how the link between vaccination and autism was shown to not be present. Long term large number studies.
