Thanks for clarifying. I was thinking about the ethics of this when seeing this article. This is horrific.

Just to be clear, this is a violation of the fundamental ethical principle in clinical trial design called "equipoise."
Equipoise means that no-one is exposed to excess risk just to test the therapy. That's specifically *why* vaccine trials don't use placebo arms.
Ethical violation as POLICY.

He is flat out of his mind. Brain worms.
The rest of RFK's kids would support her if she did.
Violations of International & US medical research laws he suggests are stunning. It would be shocking if any credible IRB/EC approved this.
From a purely $$ view, is he personally funding the study & reparations or using our tax $$ for his illegal "research"?

Get your vaccines from Canada
Forcing placebo trials where risk is already well-known isn’t ethical rigor. It’s ideology risking lives.
When you ignore science to appease conspiracy, real people get hurt.
