The Hep-B VACCINE was NEVER intended for babies. It was developed in 1981 for high-risk ADULTS — drug users, prostitutes, and those with specific lifestyle risks. Healthy babies weren’t even considered. When adults refused it and Merck was losing MILLIONS, the CDC stepped in to bail Merck out and mandated it for ALL newborns in 1991. A failed adult vaccine turned into a universal baby shot. This was never about infant protection — it was about protecting profits. Parents are waking up and refusing in growing numbers: newborn Hep B vaccination rates have dropped — parents are now saying NO at birth. Informed consent matters. The current Hep-B vaccine was only safety tested for 5 days on 147 children before it was deemed 'safe and effective' by the CDC & granted FDA approval.
