The Path to Safer Vaccines: What Needs to Change?

What RFK Jr. Isn’t Talking About: How To Make Vaccines Safer

Arthur Allen June 25, 2025

Within an hour of receiving a covid vaccination in November 2020, Utah preschool teacher Brianne Dressen felt pins and needles through her arms and legs. In the medical odyssey that followed, she suffered double vision, chronic nausea, brain fog, and profound weakness. Once a rock climber, she became a couch potato.
