A Midwestern Doctor(@MidwesternDoc):In 1982, a major network aired an hour-long special on the shot every American child had to get for school. It reported that serious reactions were "common." Studies going back to 1933 showed brain damage. And a scientist who'd worked at the agency regulating vaccines said that they "very much do not wish to know" about adverse reactions. This is what TV news did before Pharma bought it. 🧵
