Agree with this approach. End the rubber stamping of new COVID boosters and require proper trials for approval. End all EUAs, as there is no emergency. I do think that the CDC should act quickly to remove the Covid shots from the childhood vax schedule. That will help to restore some public confidence.

Vioxx was pulled off market for safety reasons and so should this shot. At least Vioxx required a prescription from me, whereas my patients may simply go directly to the pharmacist and get these harmful medical interventions, and they do. This bypasses the patient-physician relationship and the rights patients have to informed consent. Like every other prescription therapeutic, the requirement of a physician prescription should be immediately implemented. Additionally there should be an immediate change back to the previous CDC definition of vaccine so that these shots (as well as the RSV shots) are no longer classified as vaccines. These products would then lose the draconian protections that US law bestows on vaccines (this law should also be rolled back to reasonable protection).

We all know there will never be randomized control trials in any age group because of the safety signals they already know exist.
