Vaccine Research Wiki

A research wiki documenting primary source evidence on US vaccine safety trials, post-licensure monitoring, regulatory capture, and the CDC childhood immunization schedule. Each childhood-schedule vaccine has a pre-licensure page (clinical trial design, comparator choice, follow-up window, SAE rates) and a post-licensure page (VAERS signals, downstream epidemiological studies, ICAN FOIA results). All claims are source-cited with links to FDA package inserts, court documents, and congressional records.
