Analysis / Bias
In review, Precision Vaccinations “publishes vaccine news based upon valid research from universities, government agencies, pharmaceutical manufacturers, and the WHO.” Each article is reviewed by the clinical editorial board, which consists of a Physician, RN, and Pharmacist. Articles are presented with minimal bias, such as this: Scotland’s HPV Vaccination Significantly Reduced Cervical Cancer. This article is sourced to the distinguished British Medical Journal (BMJ), and other articles reviewed were also properly sourced to credible pro-science sources.
Precision Vaccinations also provides a fact-checking section where they look at common questions and statements and then research the facts. For example, this fact check: Fact Check: Flu Vaccines Don’t Protect Children, utilizes the CDC as the basis for their conclusions.
