past and current Out of Control - columns by Sandy Mintz

One of the biggest challenges facing those of us concerned about vaccine safety and effectiveness is the widespread disbelief that considerable vaccine damage could be occurring.  While this perception can probably be blamed on a variety of factors, overcoming it at least partly depends on exposing the generally poor quality of vaccine research.

One aspect that bears particular attention is the fact that vaccine studies lack a genuine control group.

Indeed, it is hard to believe that something so basic to good study design could be lacking.  Yet it is true.  Consequently, there is a great need for solid reporting on this basic issue. (For more on "never vaccinated" subjects not being included in vaccine safety studies, click here.)

To that end, OUT OF CONTROL  was born.  Periodically, as time permits, a poorly designed study will be examined, in an effort to illustrate the fundamental nature of the problem.  (Relevant Scandals columns will be included here as well.)

Also to that end, I issue an open challenge to anyone to come up with pro-vaccine safety studies which do use "never vaccinated" children as controls.  These studies will be acknowledged and posted here, if and when they can be verified.
