The federal government’s 1986 statute protecting vaccine manufacturers from liability when their products kill and injure people is one of the major reasons Big Pharma is so unconcerned about the dangers of vaccines, warned Dr. Andrew Wakefield in this interview with senior editor Alex Newman of The New American magazine. When Wakefield tried to sound the alarm about the link between the MMR vaccine and the surge in autism in a paper for The Lancet, he was viciously smeared by the entire establishment, and especially by the Big Pharma-funded mainstream media. Now, after his two hit documentaries Vaxxed and Vaxxed 2, Dr. Wakefield is back on the road promoting his new film 1986: The Act.
