Latest / The Bill Handel Show / San Andreas and Cascadia Faults | Vaccine Court
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from KFI AM
- 0:04Speaker 1: six forty.
- 0:07Speaker 2: KFI AM six forty handle here on a Wednesday morning,
- 0:12Speaker 2: October eighth. We're waiting school, waiting for Hamas to come
- 0:16Speaker 2: back and accept or not accept the latest peace proposal.
- 0:20Speaker 2: And yesterday Pambondy and the Senate the subcommittee investigating well
- 0:26Speaker 2: the weaponization of the Department of Justice.
- 0:29Speaker 1: Oh, they got into it.
- 0:30Speaker 2: Okay, Now we are moving ahead with earthquakes. Now, earthquakes
- 0:37Speaker 2: are sort of part and parcel of southern California and
- 0:41Speaker 2: northern California and as a matter of fact, the entire
- 0:44Speaker 2: West Coast, Washington, Oregon, into British Columbia because there are.
- 0:48Speaker 1: Two major faults.
- 0:50Speaker 2: One the San Andreas fault, which is here in southern California,
- 0:53Speaker 2: Palmdale bulge, and the other one is the Cascadia subduction zone.
- 1:00Speaker 1: Have no idea what a subduction.
- 1:02Speaker 2: Zone is, but I'm assuming it's a fault, and that's
- 1:04Speaker 2: along the North coast and then Oregon, Washington and BC.
- 1:08Speaker 2: As I said, now, we always thought they were separate.
- 1:12Speaker 2: Scientists always thought they were two separate entities. But the
- 1:16Speaker 2: question is what if they were back to back one
- 1:20Speaker 2: goes and then the other goes almost simultaneously.
- 1:25Speaker 1: Wow.
- 1:26Speaker 2: Well, there's a new study that was published in the
- 1:28Speaker 2: journal Geosphere and the authors are suggesting that for thousands
- 1:33Speaker 2: of years, large earthquakes on the Cascadia Zone quickly followed
- 1:38Speaker 2: by large earthquakes on the San Andreas Fault.
- 1:43Speaker 1: Not good.
- 1:45Speaker 2: So they're going through and they're doing the research and
- 1:49Speaker 2: they're looking at the dates in which this happened, and
- 1:51Speaker 2: the research is fascinating. First of all, the dates the
- 1:55Speaker 2: Cascadia subduction Zone earthquake of seventeen hundred. They figure it
- 2:01Speaker 2: was around a magnitude nine and based on archaeological evidence
- 2:05Speaker 2: that villages.
- 2:05Speaker 1: Sank had to be abandoned.
- 2:08Speaker 2: This earthquake was so powerful the entire sections of the
- 2:12Speaker 2: Pacific coastline dropped as much as five.
- 2:15Speaker 1: Feet on the coast of both.
- 2:18Speaker 2: Those of you that have spend fourteen million dollars on
- 2:20Speaker 2: a home in Malibu on the water, congratulations, the big
- 2:23Speaker 2: mazeletow to you when it comes, because you're going to
- 2:26Speaker 2: be underwater. Native American stories in the Pacific Northwest told
- 2:31Speaker 2: of how the prairie became ocean and canoes were flung
- 2:35Speaker 2: onto trees. So the study suggests that the Cascadia earthquake
- 2:43Speaker 2: was about it, excuse me, about a nine. And then
- 2:47Speaker 2: you had the Sandrea's fault, San Andrea's fault following that
- 2:50Speaker 2: literally within minutes maybe a day two, And that was
- 2:54Speaker 2: around seven point nine, which in and of itself is
- 2:57Speaker 2: a big, big quake. A nine is monstrous because if
- 3:04Speaker 2: you look at the Richter scale, it is not seven
- 3:08Speaker 2: goes to eight. This is geometric eight is one hundred
- 3:13Speaker 2: times more powerful than seven.
- 3:15Speaker 1: I mean, it's a little crazy.
- 3:17Speaker 2: So that was around seven point nine is what they
- 3:20Speaker 2: figure all these studies, these studies. So the hypothesis, and
- 3:27Speaker 2: this is the study's lead lead author said this that
- 3:31Speaker 2: this one two punch of earthquake was probably not just
- 3:34Speaker 2: a one in a million chance. It's most of the time.
- 3:39Speaker 2: And the only exception to this in the last twenty
- 3:45Speaker 2: five hundred years was nineteen oh six. That's when both
- 3:50Speaker 2: didn't go and the nineteen oh six quake, the tsunami,
- 3:58Speaker 2: if you will, the earth quake wave went away from
- 4:02Speaker 2: the city as opposed to coming into the city, which
- 4:04Speaker 2: would have just been far worse. So let's go to
- 4:09Speaker 2: the Cascadia earthquake followed by the San Andreas Fault. That
- 4:14Speaker 2: earthquake happened between fourteen twenty five and fourteen seventy five,
- 4:21Speaker 2: and then between eleven seventy five and twelve twenty five.
- 4:25Speaker 1: It was a while ago, and.
- 4:26Speaker 2: Then happened around the years ada twenty five and four
- 4:29Speaker 2: to seventy five BC. Hmm, now a repeat of just
- 4:36Speaker 2: the nineteen oh six earthquake. Just that, thousands of deaths,
- 4:41Speaker 2: hundreds of billions dollars in property, A magnitude nine earthquake
- 4:46Speaker 2: up in Cascadia. We're talking about tsunami wave heights that
- 4:52Speaker 2: would wash away entire coastal towns, Highway one oh one,
- 4:57Speaker 2: gone billion dollars, ten seventy billillion dollars in damage along
- 5:01Speaker 2: the coast, one hundred bridges, lost power lines, toppled, coastal
- 5:04Speaker 2: towns isolated, and people would have as little as fifteen
- 5:08Speaker 2: minutes notice to go to higher ground. And they figured
- 5:11Speaker 2: ten thousand deaths. See, this is all good news for you.
- 5:15Speaker 2: This is when you want to pick up and go
- 5:17Speaker 2: to Florida and get hit by hurricanes. And South Florida
- 5:23Speaker 2: is a terrific place to live. It's full of either
- 5:26Speaker 2: Cubans or my mother old Jewish jentas who do nothing
- 5:32Speaker 2: but complain. That's South Florida and it's hurricanes and we
- 5:38Speaker 2: are are you going to move? I'd rather have a
- 5:40Speaker 2: I'd rather have an earthquake than a hurricane because it's done.
- 5:44Speaker 1: I mean, you're done.
- 5:45Speaker 2: Well, you get the aftershocks too, but it's okay, we
- 5:49Speaker 2: got it now, hurricane. You're sitting there for days now.
- 5:53Speaker 2: Scientists won't know for sure. And this is the part
- 5:58Speaker 2: of the study that I find the most fascinating, because
- 6:02Speaker 2: this is archaeological evidence, this is written evidence that this
- 6:07Speaker 2: happened this way. This is oral stories that come down
- 6:11Speaker 2: among for example, Indian tribes. The hypothesis is we won't
- 6:17Speaker 2: know for sure until it happens. Thank you very much.
- 6:22Speaker 2: Doctor's good for you. How's that for ending this study.
- 6:29Speaker 2: It won't happen till it happens. It won't happen till
- 6:32Speaker 2: the old lady was it the old lady sings or
- 6:35Speaker 2: the fat lady things? Let's see fat lady age. Oh yeah, okay,
- 6:40Speaker 2: she's just fat. Interesting stuff. Very depressing right now. Let
- 6:46Speaker 2: me get into another story. Oh this is depressing day,
- 6:48Speaker 2: it really is. This is a fun day for me. Okay,
- 6:52Speaker 2: I get calls on handle on the lall all the
- 6:54Speaker 2: time about folks, especially elderly folks who are dead broke,
- 7:00Speaker 2: used credit cards and max them out, and ask me
- 7:02Speaker 2: about lawsuits. Bill, Am I going to get sued for
- 7:06Speaker 2: the twelve thousand dollars? I own no idea, but I'll
- 7:09Speaker 2: tell you they can't collect your social Security And I
- 7:11Speaker 2: assume that's all you live on, is social Security?
- 7:13Speaker 1: Right? Yeah?
- 7:16Speaker 2: Fifteen hundred dollars a month, eighteen hundred dollars a month,
- 7:19Speaker 2: one thousand dollars a month here living in southern California.
- 7:22Speaker 1: Can you imagine that? So this one is a heartbreaker.
- 7:25Speaker 2: This is one of those I joke, but in reality
- 7:28Speaker 2: it really is heartbreaking. Wealth has been tied to longevity
- 7:34Speaker 2: in the US and other countries too. And here's an
- 7:37Speaker 2: analysis just came out, and that is how long low
- 7:41Speaker 2: income older Americans live or don't live, and the more
- 7:47Speaker 2: affluent people, how much longer they live average nine years
- 7:53Speaker 2: nine years of life. If you're rich and old, you're
- 7:58Speaker 2: going to live on average nine years longer than if
- 8:02Speaker 2: you're poor and old.
- 8:05Speaker 1: That is a real problem.
- 8:07Speaker 2: Now, I want to make a social point here, sociological point.
- 8:12Speaker 1: I'm not an exceptionalist.
- 8:14Speaker 2: You know, Americans, a lot of people say we're the
- 8:16Speaker 2: greatest country in the world. And in many ways we
- 8:18Speaker 2: are the greatest country in the world. However, there's some issues.
- 8:22Speaker 2: There are some places where we're not the greatest country
- 8:25Speaker 2: in the world. Talk to someone who's on Social Security
- 8:28Speaker 2: that can't afford food. Hey, we're the greatest country in
- 8:33Speaker 2: the world. Go to Europe and people don't starve. Go
- 8:39Speaker 2: to other cultures and people don't starve when they're old
- 8:42Speaker 2: because our culture is very different in other cultures. Old
- 8:47Speaker 2: people move in with their kids. That's it, you know,
- 8:50Speaker 2: you take care of your parents. That's the way it
- 8:52Speaker 2: works here. No, not so much. You have your own life.
- 8:57Speaker 2: You have your family, and as your parents ad or
- 9:00Speaker 2: as a u age, you're on your own. And what
- 9:04Speaker 2: it costs to stay alive if you're not earning money
- 9:08Speaker 2: and living on Social Security and whatever pension, which of
- 9:11Speaker 2: course don't exist anymore.
- 9:13Speaker 1: That is a tough one that is not easy.
- 9:18Speaker 2: About fifteen percent this research, it just came out a
- 9:21Speaker 2: new study from the National Council on Aging. Generally, middle
- 9:26Speaker 2: income older Americans are also dying younger than wealthier people.
- 9:31Speaker 2: The secret to living a nice long life is to
- 9:34Speaker 2: have money. Now that doesn't automatically translate, but what ends
- 9:38Speaker 2: up happening, Well, you have better healthcare.
- 9:41Speaker 1: Nutritionally, you have better nutrition.
- 9:46Speaker 2: The stress of whether you're going to pay your rent
- 9:48Speaker 2: or eat doesn't exist. And the kind of stress that
- 9:53Speaker 2: does happen when you're in that position that leads to
- 9:57Speaker 2: dying because we know how stress affects health. And this
- 10:02Speaker 2: is the first time wealth and health have been tied together.
- 10:06Speaker 2: This is a study from twenty eighteen to twenty twenty
- 10:08Speaker 2: two University of Michigan did. There's ten thousand households, so
- 10:12Speaker 2: we're talking about a serious study and it has all
- 10:15Speaker 2: kinds of implications for an aging society. We have widening
- 10:19Speaker 2: economic inequality. The rich are getting richer, the poor are
- 10:25Speaker 2: getting poorer.
- 10:27Speaker 1: And it now.
- 10:28Speaker 2: Translates into they've got some figures nine years difference, and
- 10:34Speaker 2: the US population is aging and how many of us
- 10:37Speaker 2: and we've done these We do this with Joe Larsgard
- 10:40Speaker 2: all the time. How much you think it's going to
- 10:42Speaker 2: cost to literally you have to have in savings to
- 10:46Speaker 2: get for example, fifty thousand dollars a year, okay, which
- 10:50Speaker 2: is not a huge amount of money. Income fifty thousand
- 10:54Speaker 2: dollars a year, you need a million dollars in the bank.
- 10:57Speaker 1: How many of us.
- 10:58Speaker 2: Have a million dollars in the bank or invested? That
- 11:04Speaker 2: is throwing off five percent, four or five percent?
- 11:08Speaker 1: That keeps you alive. Very few people.
- 11:11Speaker 2: We don't plan for the future, and we don't have
- 11:16Speaker 2: a society where we move in with our kids and
- 11:20Speaker 2: the entire extended family takes care of grandma grandpa, because
- 11:24Speaker 2: that's the way it works in Europe, that's the way
- 11:26Speaker 2: it works in Asia, but it doesn't work that way here.
- 11:29Speaker 1: So we have elderly people on.
- 11:31Speaker 2: Their own literally living in dumpsters or living in maybe
- 11:35Speaker 2: not dumpsters, but living in a very tough life and
- 11:38Speaker 2: making very tough decisions.
- 11:41Speaker 1: And what I.
- 11:41Speaker 2: Tell folks is, if you're only living on social Security,
- 11:44Speaker 2: doesn't matter if you're going to get sued, no one's
- 11:46Speaker 2: going to be able to collect because social Security as exempt.
- 11:49Speaker 2: But that is one of the one of the worst
- 11:53Speaker 2: parts of the US. We're the best country in the
- 11:56Speaker 2: world really infant mortality, we're number twenty something. When it
- 12:02Speaker 2: comes to literacy, we're maybe in the teens. When it
- 12:07Speaker 2: comes to healthcare, we're way way down, and we all
- 12:11Speaker 2: know the healthcare system is broken. When it comes to opportunity,
- 12:15Speaker 2: we're the best, if not one of the best.
- 12:19Speaker 1: When it comes to lifestyle.
- 12:22Speaker 2: Other than if you live in Finland and you happen
- 12:24Speaker 2: to like snow that's nineteen feet deep, we're in pretty
- 12:28Speaker 2: good shape here in America gun violence.
- 12:31Speaker 1: Are we the greatest country in the world to live in? No?
- 12:36Speaker 2: And the rough part is when it comes to elderly people,
- 12:40Speaker 2: it is very tough to be old in this country.
- 12:43Speaker 1: It's very tough to be poor in this country.
- 12:46Speaker 2: You want to be poor, I'm going to suggest you
- 12:48Speaker 2: move to the Scandinavian countries where you're not going to
- 12:52Speaker 2: live on the street. You're not going to starve. There
- 12:55Speaker 2: is a social safety net there that we don't have here.
- 12:59Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean, that's that's tough. So what's the answer?
- 13:04Speaker 1: Get rich? How's that for an answer? Huh?
- 13:08Speaker 2: Or die trying or die Well, you will die trying,
- 13:11Speaker 2: that's for sure.
- 13:12Speaker 1: Nine years earlier. I mean that that's a stunning figure.
- 13:17Speaker 1: That really is.
- 13:20Speaker 2: Kno, will I be invited to your funeral next week? No?
- 13:26Speaker 1: You won't, Okay, just you No? No, okay?
- 13:33Speaker 2: Moving on a crazy time in the Trump administration really
- 13:38Speaker 2: as in every day And one of the crazier people
- 13:42Speaker 2: in the administration is Robert Kennedy Junior, who is a
- 13:47Speaker 2: head of Health and Human Services, who is head of
- 13:50Speaker 2: the CDC and controls what the CDC tells us about vaccines.
- 13:55Speaker 2: And he is a vaccine skeptic to some degree. He
- 13:59Speaker 2: used to be a lot more He's calmed that down
- 14:01Speaker 2: a little bit. And I'll tell you what is going on.
- 14:04Speaker 2: It's a little complicated, but I want to unwonk this.
- 14:08Speaker 2: When you see a commercial on TV about any drug,
- 14:13Speaker 2: the disclaimer will read in very rare circumstances, this could
- 14:17Speaker 2: lead to loss of an erection for the rest of
- 14:20Speaker 2: your life, oily stools. You may die in very rare instances.
- 14:27Speaker 2: And what is it one in one hundred thousand. I
- 14:30Speaker 2: mean the studies have shown because frankly, the FDA won't
- 14:34Speaker 2: approve drugs that at least have some eacy, efficacy and
- 14:39Speaker 2: don't kill people. So what happens in those very rare
- 14:43Speaker 2: instances where vaccines do give people those side effects? When
- 14:50Speaker 2: you have one hundred million kids over the course of
- 14:55Speaker 2: decades getting vaccinations, well, frankly, all of us have gotten
- 14:58Speaker 2: vaccinations for the most part. I mean, I don't know
- 15:03Speaker 2: many people who have not been vaccinated really quickly. Neil vaccinated, Yes, sir,
- 15:08Speaker 2: Amy vaccinated or what. It doesn't matter in general for
- 15:13Speaker 2: MMR and polio and all of the diseases. Yeah, so
- 15:18Speaker 2: does Kno, and so does everybody, Which means we have
- 15:23Speaker 2: three hundred and forty million Americans of which the vast,
- 15:25Speaker 2: vast majority, and you've been vaccinated, I ask you already.
- 15:28Speaker 1: Absolutely just got my flushaw last week. Okay, good for you,
- 15:32Speaker 1: and be I did too a few weeks ago. So
- 15:35Speaker 1: you have three.
- 15:35Speaker 2: Hundred and forty million Americans, of which the vast majority,
- 15:41Speaker 2: and I'm going to speculate here, I would say three
- 15:43Speaker 2: hundred and thirty million of them have been vaccinated. Now,
- 15:48Speaker 2: if you have one in let's say fifty thousand having
- 15:51Speaker 2: a severe reaction to the vaccine and maybe it kills them,
- 15:55Speaker 2: maybe it causes some very serious serious disease or react,
- 16:00Speaker 2: you still have a lot of people. So what ended
- 16:04Speaker 2: up happening was there was a documentary film, a quasi
- 16:09Speaker 2: documentary film, and it caused a lot of feur. It
- 16:14Speaker 2: basically connected these vaccines to autism.
- 16:19Speaker 1: And is this where.
- 16:22Speaker 2: Robert Kennedy got his great view of vaccines. And then
- 16:27Speaker 2: there was one study by this guy Wakefield in the
- 16:30Speaker 2: late nineteen nineties and early two thousand Andrew Wakefield, he
- 16:34Speaker 2: wrote a paper which is now retracted, alleging that link
- 16:38Speaker 2: between MMR vaccine, that young people vaccine and autism all
- 16:44Speaker 2: of a sudden, that fuels a surge of claims. And
- 16:49Speaker 2: where did people go. They went to vaccine court. They
- 16:54Speaker 2: didn't sue the manufacture because frankly, you're not going to
- 16:58Speaker 2: win against the manufactur. Sure, the chances and the connection
- 17:03Speaker 2: are so tenuous that it's not a win. However, if
- 17:08Speaker 2: you have ten million people suing a manufacturer, you know
- 17:12Speaker 2: what ends up happening. They're out of the vaccine business.
- 17:15Speaker 2: They don't want to deal with it anymore. So what
- 17:18Speaker 2: happened was that by law, vaccine Court was created, and
- 17:25Speaker 2: this came out of the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act
- 17:28Speaker 2: of nineteen eighty six, creating a no fault system families
- 17:33Speaker 2: who believed a vaccine caused harm, and in many cases
- 17:37Speaker 2: did or one in a zillion cases did, but it's
- 17:40Speaker 2: still real.
- 17:42Speaker 1: There were kids.
- 17:42Speaker 2: Who got back to who were vaccinated who did react
- 17:47Speaker 2: and became very seriously ill to the point where they
- 17:51Speaker 2: need lifetime care. And so this Injury Act of nineteen
- 17:57Speaker 2: eighty six created this no fault syts if a family
- 18:01Speaker 2: believes that a vaccine caused harm to the child, if
- 18:05Speaker 2: the injury appeared within a table set within a time frame.
- 18:10Speaker 2: In other words, that's one of the requirements. Kid is
- 18:12Speaker 2: vaccinated and within a time frame in fact got this illness.
- 18:20Speaker 2: Was the argument was the vaccine was connected to whatever syndrome,
- 18:25Speaker 2: whatever horrific illness. And by the way, it was probably
- 18:29Speaker 2: why because one in fifty thousand and one in twenty
- 18:33Speaker 2: thousand and one and one hundred thousand are in fact affected.
- 18:37Speaker 2: Because there's no such thing as a one hundred percent
- 18:39Speaker 2: of everything. So what do what does that family do? Well,
- 18:45Speaker 2: they go to vaccine court, not the actual name, and
- 18:50Speaker 2: compensation is automatic. They don't have to prove the connection.
- 18:57Speaker 2: All they have to prove is the kid got vacated
- 19:01Speaker 2: within this timeframe in some cases thirty days and some
- 19:05Speaker 2: cases a year. Then compensation occurred. You don't sue the
- 19:09Speaker 2: manufacture of the vaccine. You simply go to court and
- 19:14Speaker 2: the government pays for the compensation, which every manufacturer puts
- 19:21Speaker 2: in a little bit of money per vaccine.
- 19:24Speaker 1: So it's a small hit and it works. It works.
- 19:30Speaker 1: Claimants could present medical evidence.
- 19:33Speaker 2: If the vaccine court says there is no connection, then
- 19:36Speaker 2: the claimant can go forward and present evidence and try
- 19:38Speaker 2: to overrule vaccine court. Which has happened the Vaccine Injury
- 19:44Speaker 2: Compensation program, and it is a court of sort of
- 19:48Speaker 2: a court. It's an administrative court. It's not in front of
- 19:51Speaker 2: a judge. You're in front of what it's called a
- 19:53Speaker 2: special master, who is an expert on this and the
- 19:58Speaker 2: way it works. If you are or if your child,
- 20:00Speaker 2: for example, is one of the very very rare number
- 20:04Speaker 2: of children that react to vaccines, and it does happen,
- 20:09Speaker 2: we know that that's a given and hear you'll see
- 20:13Speaker 2: the disclaimer on TV commercials. Half the commercial is these
- 20:17Speaker 2: are the side effects. Now the side effects what very
- 20:21Speaker 2: rare cases. I mean I'm talking about rare.
- 20:23Speaker 1: But it does happen.
- 20:24Speaker 2: So what ended up happening is lawsuits would hit these
- 20:30Speaker 2: vaccine manufacturers and enough of the hit, you're done. And
- 20:34Speaker 2: when that first study came out in the late nineties,
- 20:37Speaker 2: Wakefield wrote that paper Connection between Autism and Vaccines, which
- 20:42Speaker 2: by the way, there is no connection.
- 20:45Speaker 1: His numbers were flawed.
- 20:47Speaker 2: He made up the numbers and it was debunked and
- 20:52Speaker 2: he lost his license. But that's the basis of Robert
- 20:55Speaker 2: Kennedy's autism is connected to vaccines. So you have this
- 21:01Speaker 2: court vaccine injury compensation program, and it's a no fall program,
- 21:05Speaker 2: as I said, And what happens if a child does
- 21:08Speaker 2: react and gets seriously seriously ill or reacts incredibly negatively,
- 21:13Speaker 2: simply goes to the vaccine compensation court and the court
- 21:17Speaker 2: the master looks at it. Yes, there is a connection.
- 21:19Speaker 2: How is there a connection? There may not be a
- 21:21Speaker 2: connection at all. But the way it is designed is
- 21:25Speaker 2: within a certain timeframe, this particular disease or syndrome happens
- 21:31Speaker 2: or effect things like encephaly and a few others, there's
- 21:35Speaker 2: about ten of them. Then compensation is awarded, no fault.
- 21:39Speaker 2: It's automatic. You don't have to prove anything. The only
- 21:41Speaker 2: have to prove is you got the vaccine, this happened
- 21:44Speaker 2: within the timeframe. And these are the diseases that are
- 21:48Speaker 2: covered period.
- 21:49Speaker 1: Easy.
- 21:50Speaker 2: Now, what Kennedy wants to do is add autism to
- 21:56Speaker 2: that table.
- 21:57Speaker 1: The problem is there are year, years and years.
- 22:01Speaker 2: Of study that have proven conclusively autism is not connected
- 22:11Speaker 2: to vaccine. Now autism is being diagnosed to half of
- 22:17Speaker 2: the kids in the country now, I mean, autism is
- 22:21Speaker 2: out there and it's like French fries at McDonald's. It's
- 22:24Speaker 2: amazing how many people now have autism. What Kennedy wants
- 22:28Speaker 2: to do is add to that table of diseases autism,
- 22:33Speaker 2: which means it's going to blow open the number of.
- 22:37Speaker 1: Claims that are being made.
- 22:39Speaker 2: Because everybody gets vaccinated, the number of kids that are
- 22:44Speaker 2: diagnosed with autism has exploded. And if they go to
- 22:48Speaker 2: this autism court, it's going to be overwhelmed. There are
- 22:51Speaker 2: only eight masters and we're talking millions of claims. And
- 22:58Speaker 2: if the autism is accepted by the vaccine Court, and
- 23:03Speaker 2: by the way, the Department of Health and Human Services
- 23:05Speaker 2: makes the determination of which of these diseases are in
- 23:09Speaker 2: fact connected to those vaccines, the one in a million connection,
- 23:14Speaker 2: and doctors make this decision. But we know what the
- 23:16Speaker 2: Department of Health and Human Services says, screw the doctors.
- 23:19Speaker 2: We've made this decision. We're going to go forward and
- 23:23Speaker 2: it's simply going to break the system. And this vaccine
- 23:28Speaker 2: Court is a wonderful idea. This is where the government
- 23:32Speaker 2: did a terrific thing because it number one saves the
- 23:38Speaker 2: manufacturer from being sued.
- 23:41Speaker 1: It's no fault.
- 23:43Speaker 2: The compensation is automatic, so the manufacture of the vaccine
- 23:48Speaker 2: is not going to get hit and the patient is
- 23:51Speaker 2: still going to get paid. And the trust fund that
- 23:57Speaker 2: pays these is actually paid by the many, by the
- 24:00Speaker 2: manufacturer of the vaccine. But I think it's twelve cents
- 24:05Speaker 2: per vaccine or whatever it is. It's a very low figure.
- 24:08Speaker 2: But if you add all the vaccines up, there's a
- 24:10Speaker 2: ton of money. There's four billion dollars in that trust fund,
- 24:14Speaker 2: which at this.
- 24:14Speaker 1: Point is you know, it's working. It's working.
- 24:21Speaker 2: Since nineteen eighty eight, the federal data shows that twenty
- 24:25Speaker 2: five thousand petitions have been made to Vaccine Court and
- 24:29Speaker 2: have been adjudicated. Of those, twelve thousand were granted compensation.
- 24:34Speaker 2: Thirteen thousand were dismissed, saying what you have is not
- 24:40Speaker 2: in our table of diseases. You didn't meet the timeline.
- 24:43Speaker 2: Certain timelines or a year. Certain timelines are thirty days
- 24:47Speaker 2: because some react immediately and you didn't make it. So
- 24:51Speaker 2: over half have been been denied saying nope, you didn't
- 24:55Speaker 2: make it.
- 24:56Speaker 1: So this helps people.
- 24:59Speaker 2: So you have kids who families who get the compensation
- 25:01Speaker 2: they needing taking care of the kids for the rest
- 25:04Speaker 2: of their lives.
- 25:05Speaker 1: Millions of dollars of compensation are given.
- 25:08Speaker 2: So it helps these kids, it helps keep the vaccine
- 25:12Speaker 2: manufacturers in the market, and it's sort of a win
- 25:17Speaker 2: win for everybody.
- 25:19Speaker 1: Now, can this be blown up?
- 25:21Speaker 2: Yeah, as soon as you add autism to that table,
- 25:26Speaker 2: to that number of syndromes or reactions in opposition to
- 25:34Speaker 2: all of the evidence over decades and decades. So during
- 25:39Speaker 2: this time that whatever number of kids have autism and
- 25:45Speaker 2: we're vaccinated with something, hundreds of millions of vaccinations have
- 25:51Speaker 2: occurred around the world and how many how many people
- 25:55Speaker 2: were saved? Millions and millions. So Kennedy may get his
- 26:03Speaker 2: wish and do an end around on this and not
- 26:08Speaker 2: officially say and have the government say yes autism or
- 26:13Speaker 2: vaccines cause cause autism.
- 26:17Speaker 1: What he is going to do, what he could do is.
- 26:19Speaker 2: Simply add to that table of diseases that react to
- 26:24Speaker 2: vaccines and will break the system.
- 26:26Speaker 1: It'll just break the system.
- 26:28Speaker 2: It'll blow up, and he gets his wish, Ye vaccines
- 26:33Speaker 2: cause autism. Crazy isn't it just completely crazy?
- 26:39Speaker 1: Okay, a lot going on now.
- 26:41Speaker 2: This is the week of Nobel Prizes, and we've already
- 26:45Speaker 2: had I think the Physics Prize and the Price for Medicine,
- 26:50Speaker 2: and these Nobel Prizes now are really obscure stuff. I
- 26:54Speaker 2: mean they're minute scientific discoveries, proteins and within the body.
- 27:02Speaker 2: I mean it used to be where you could understand
- 27:05Speaker 2: Nobel Prizes. For example, whoever invented flying that got the
- 27:08Speaker 2: Nobel Prize. That's easy to understand, right X rays where
- 27:13Speaker 2: Marie Currey got the Nobel Prize at the show in
- 27:17Speaker 2: the last century. She received two. By the way, very
- 27:19Speaker 2: very few people have ever received two, and she certainly
- 27:23Speaker 2: was the only woman to ever do that. So we're
- 27:26Speaker 2: gonna the big one is coming up on Friday, the
- 27:28Speaker 2: Nobel Peace Prize. This is what everybody looks at. And
- 27:32Speaker 2: there's been some weird ones on that one too. Now,
- 27:36Speaker 2: the Nobel Prizes are awarded in Stockholm or is it Oslo?
- 27:41Speaker 2: And then the Peace Prize awarded in Stockholm is one
- 27:43Speaker 2: or the other. It's on it's very different. It's on itself.
- 27:47Speaker 1: Okay.
- 27:48Speaker 2: So you've got the Nobel Prizes and they're extraordinary discoveries,
- 27:54Speaker 2: and they're given well once a year and sometimes not
- 27:59Speaker 2: at all, to very important findings and usually issues that
- 28:05Speaker 2: affect mankind in a positive way. Well, there's also called
- 28:09Speaker 2: the Ignobel Prizes, and they've been going on for thirty
- 28:13Speaker 2: five years.
- 28:15Speaker 1: And what they do is.
- 28:19Speaker 2: They celebrate science's more unusual contributions. They honor the imaginative,
- 28:26Speaker 2: maybe spur people's interests in science, medicine, technology. Now, these
- 28:30Speaker 2: are real studies done by real researchers, as crazy as
- 28:35Speaker 2: it may sound. So let's go through this year's winners
- 28:41Speaker 2: of the Ignobel Prizes.
- 28:45Speaker 1: Okay, let's do it.
- 28:48Speaker 2: For the Nutrition Prize, which the Ignobil Prize is awarded,
- 28:54Speaker 2: not the Nobel Prize, but the Ignobel Prize. This is
- 29:00Speaker 2: a study that was done by I can't even go
- 29:03Speaker 2: through the names Daniellie Dandy, Gabriel, Seganatia Betto and it
- 29:08Speaker 2: goes on and on, and they were awarded the Nutrition
- 29:11Speaker 2: Prize for studying the extent to which a certain kind
- 29:15Speaker 2: of lizard chooses to eat certain kinds of pizza.
- 29:20Speaker 1: Real study.
- 29:21Speaker 2: So the team spotted a rainbow lizard stealing a slice
- 29:24Speaker 2: of pizza at a resort. And then the scientist said
- 29:28Speaker 2: they wanted to know if the rainbow lizards, who usually
- 29:31Speaker 2: eat insects, had a taste for pizza hm. And they
- 29:37Speaker 2: had a do they do the lizers have a preferred topping.
- 29:41Speaker 2: So they followed nine lizards who had a choice between
- 29:45Speaker 2: the four cheese pizza and a plate of four Seasons
- 29:50Speaker 2: pizza a lot of meat on it, you know, pepperoni and.
- 29:53Speaker 1: Sausage, etc.
- 29:55Speaker 2: Now, the lizards found the pizza and ate it, but
- 29:58Speaker 2: only the four cheese pizza.
- 30:01Speaker 1: They didn't eat the rest of them.
- 30:03Speaker 2: Why because it could be easier for them to digest
- 30:06Speaker 2: the cheese pizza. It could be some cues attract them
- 30:10Speaker 2: to the cheesier pizza. So they discovered why Well, we
- 30:18Speaker 2: really don't know, but it was one of the winners.
- 30:21Speaker 1: Then another winner of.
- 30:24Speaker 2: This was the Physics Prize and went to a bunch
- 30:28Speaker 2: of people Italian people, and it honors and basically studies
- 30:33Speaker 2: pasta sauce hmm. So they were given the Ignobel Prize
- 30:39Speaker 2: for discoveries about the physics of pasta sauce, especially the
- 30:43Speaker 2: phase transition that can lead to clumping, which can cause
- 30:48Speaker 2: unpleasantness because so many of us suffer from pasta sauce
- 30:52Speaker 2: that clumps. So if you're making caccio epeppi, I think
- 30:57Speaker 2: that's one of the sauces.
- 30:59Speaker 1: If the water is.
- 30:59Speaker 2: Too hot or you don't have the right ratio of
- 31:03Speaker 2: cheese to starch, the sauce turns into a thin liquid
- 31:06Speaker 2: filled with these congealed globs of kurds. And earlier this
- 31:10Speaker 2: year these physicists developed a way to prevent clumping. You
- 31:14Speaker 2: use corn starch in the cheese and pepper sauce instead
- 31:17Speaker 2: of just relying on how much starch gets into the
- 31:20Speaker 2: boiling water while the pasta cooks. And while why they
- 31:24Speaker 2: got that prize is because pasta sauce is so important
- 31:29Speaker 2: to those of us who eat pasta. And that's around
- 31:33Speaker 2: the world, and there was and there is physics to it.
- 31:39Speaker 2: Oh there's more. There's more big Nobel prizes coming. Diseases
- 31:46Speaker 2: that react to vaccines and will break the system. It'll
- 31:49Speaker 2: just break the system, it'll blow up. And he gets
- 31:52Speaker 2: his wish. Yeah, vaccines cause autism.
- 31:57Speaker 1: Crazy.
- 31:57Speaker 2: Isn't it just completely crazy?
