I have a question and I'm asking it here because simply I don't know where else to ask it.

I recently heard Robert F. Kennedy Jr. state that a major reason for vaccinating kids is because this will provide legal immunity for Big Pharma even _after_ the EUAs are done and we move - hypothetically, if you ask me - to full FDA approval.

I've tried to look this up. IANAL. The closest I've found is the NCVIA, the National Childhood Vaccines Injury Act, which redirects vaxx compensation claims through a special system, one that appears to primarily protect the vaxx makers.

But despite the word "Childhood" in the name of the act, it appears to apply to any vaxx, for child and adult alike, or at least any vaxx specifically listed in its table of approved vaxxes.

So my question is: is RFK Jr. right? Is all it takes is to have a vaxx added to the NCVIA table and the vaxx maker thereby becomes magically untouchable, even after full FDA approval? Is that how it's done? And if so, what is the process? Can the FDA do this on its own, or does congress have to amend the act?

Thanks to anyone who can answer. I'm not involved in any litigation or anything, just someone who's curious and wishes to know, as I'm sure others are as well. Thanks again.

I was intrigued as well, so I did some research. The jab is currently classified as CICP. The problem is that it looks like it can be categorized as such only during a pandemic/epidemic, not an endemic. So they're attempting to move it to the VICP category before we shift to the endemic status, which is where the "childhood" part comes in. So my conclusion is that RFK jr is indeed correct.

Let me know if people find anything odd about my reasoning.

1. CICP vs VICP

2. "Cactus" = CICP

3. CICP = just for pandemic or epidemic (not endemic) prdts

(FYI VICP is under NCVIA
