The Denmark Schedule Hysteria Misses the Point: It’s About Shared Clinical Decision-Making

The Denmark Schedule Hysteria Misses the Point: It’s About Shared Clinical Decision-Making

Comments 0 Comment

The vaccine establishment went into full panic mode last week when CNN reported that HHS was planning to align the U.S. childhood vaccine schedule with Denmark’s. The headlines screamed: Denmark recommends only 11 vaccine doses targeting 10 diseases; the U.S. recommends 72 doses targeting 18 diseases. Scott Gottlieb warned we’d need to “build new pediatric hospitals.” The AAP predicted “devastating results.” Paul Offit accused HHS of wanting children to suffer. But CNN missed half the story. The next day, the…

John Stockton (et al) Drives to the Supreme Court for the Win!

John Stockton (et al) Drives to the Supreme Court for the Win!

Comments 0 Comment

Today, November 24, 2024, we filed for cert at the Supreme Court in Stockton v. Brown, seeking to overturn the Ninth Circuit’s refusal to declare unconstitutional the Washington Medical Commission’s enforcement policy sactioning phsyicians for alleged Covid Misinformation. This, despite the fact that the day before, the Washington Appellate court did that very thing, making the 9th’s decision DEAD ON ARRIVAL! Can state medical boards punish physicians for their public speech on matters of public concern? This shouldn’t be controvefrsial…

Finally, The CDC’s Untested Childhood Vaccine Schedule Is On Trial

Finally, The CDC’s Untested Childhood Vaccine Schedule Is On Trial

Comments 8 comments

For the first time, a federal lawsuit challenges the CDC’s 72-dose childhood vaccine schedule on the grounds that it has never been safety tested as actually administered. It may also surprise you that the government’s own outside advisors have been urging these studies for almost 25 years. On Friday August 15th, I filed Thomas v. Monarez in federal court in D.C. on behalf of Dr. Paul Thomas, Dr. Kenneth Stoller, and Stand for Health Freedom. The case goes to the…

The Cardenas Lawsuit is over: But What’s Next Will Be Huge

The Cardenas Lawsuit is over: But What’s Next Will Be Huge

Comments 1 comment

Earlier in the week, I filed a voluntary dismissal in Cardenas v. Monarez, which lawsuit sought two things. 1. That the CDC change the Covid shot for kids from “recommended” to “shared decision-making.” We specifically asked that this be done prior to the ACIP meeting scheduled for end of June. 2. That the Vaccine for Children Program stop requiring Medicaid pediatricians to order the Covid shot. (You might recall that Dr. Cardenas’ refusal to order the Covid shot lead to…

The Last Cert Petition Standing: Kory v. Bonta and the Supreme Court’s Silent Spotlight Grows

The Last Cert Petition Standing: Kory v. Bonta and the Supreme Court’s Silent Spotlight Grows

Comments 1 comment

As of August 4, 2025, the Supreme Court has resolved every single cert petition filed during the 2024–2025 Term—except one. Our case. Kory v. Bonta is the last remaining cert petition pending. Every other petition has been denied, granted, vacated and remanded, or reversed without full briefing. That includes every petition from the June 18 conference, when Kory was distributed, and every petition from all earlier and later conferences. They’ve all been disposed of—except Kory. That doesn’t seem routine to…

No Decision Yet in Kory v. Bonta—But Here’s My Best Guess (or Wishful Thinking) about the What’s Coming

No Decision Yet in Kory v. Bonta—But Here’s My Best Guess (or Wishful Thinking) about the What’s Coming

Comments 0 Comment

Still no word from the Supreme Court on Kory v. Bonta. To recap: we filed for certiorari after the Ninth Circuit affirmed Judge Shubb’s denial of a preliminary injunction and upheld his determination—joined by two of the three appellate judges—that the plaintiffs lacked standing. After we filed the cert petition, the California Attorney General’s office waived its right to respond. However, the Court ordered a response anyway. That’s significant—it means at least one Justice thought it worth hearing how the…

We should know within a few days, thumbs up or thumbs down. Any longer than that might mean some kind of decision, perhaps a dissent from whatever decision is made. It only takes four justices to accept a case. fingers crossed. Rick Jaffe, Esq.

I just received word that our petition for certiorari on Kory v Bonta has been docketed. here it is: 24-KoryPetition. I think it came out pretty good. But I am missing my former co-counsel on the case, but he’s already doing great work in his new gig. These petitions are a super long shot usually. I intend to stir things up to dramatically increase the odds. Stay Tuned for the next update tomorrow. You’ll like it. Rick Jaffe, Esq.

Please, Please, Let’s Not Get Ahead of Ourselves with RFK Jr’s Nomination

Comments 4 comments

First a disclaimer: Although I have worked with RFK Jr. on some cases, and I have represented him on some of his cases, what I am saying is just my view. I do not speak for him or his inner circle. It’s exciting times for sure about what could be the beginning of a healthier America if RFK Jr gets confirmed by the full Senate. But I am dismayed to see all kinds of hand-wringing/worried analysis resulting from Senator Cassidy’s…
