RFK Jr.: 'Vaccine Immunity Law Sparked Gold Rush—Autism Rates Exploded Since 1989'

"Autism went from one in 10,000 in my generation, to one in every 34 kids today."

RFK Jr: [Ronald Reagan] signed a statute that gave complete immunity from liability to any vaccine companies, so... no matter how negligent their conduct, no matter how toxic the ingredient... you can't sue them."

"That caused a gold rush, where the pharmaceutical companies were saying, hey, now we've got the greatest product in the world. It's a product we don't have to do any advertising [for] because the government is mandating 76 million people take this."

"So there was a gold rush to put all these new shots on the schedule... In [1989], the new shots started arriving, and that year, we started seeing an explosion in chronic disease in this country. By chronic disease, I mean neurological diseases like ADD, ADHD, speech delay, tics, Tourette's syndrome, ASD, and autism."
