Combined with this from EUROMO...

It calls for a serious investigation and debate.

Investigation that should be given maximum publicity and transparency given the glaring conflict of interest involved.

Given the negligible risk of covid in 0-19 age group...

The vaxx had a very high bar to clear for risk-benefit to be positive.

The fact that Sweden never vaccinated < 12 yrs.

...and many other countries later followed suit, is a tacit admission that the math did not add up.

So yeah, there is a wide spectrum of valid opinion between anti-vaxxers and "safe and effective" propagandists.

My favourite Ockham's razor:

Incompetence plus cover up > Conspiracy

It works for Chernobyl, Lockdowns...

Of course I don't want to ignore incentives, they matter a lot. They play into the cover up. Nobody wants to admit their mistakes, especially if it could lead to liability.

But for people to want to stifle debate they don't need to be part of a shadowy cabal...

As to justice... I favour a public investigation and class action lawsuits similar to those the tobacco industry faced. Fines. Civil liability.

Nuremberg2 seems extreme unless very bad faith can be proven.

Exception to the above: govt. officials that implemented mandates should face criminal liability.

Mandating an experimental (by definition!) medication is criminal. A clear violation of the Nuremberg code.

An EUA does not magically move time forward and transform a new experimental treatment into a time-tested treatment. Neither time nor science work that way.
