What Do Vaccines And Power Morcellators Have in Common?

Like the power morcellator used to break up uterine fibroids in the '90s, could vaccines be lacking proper research and causing more harm than good?

In 1993, the FDA approved a surgical device called a power morcellator, enabling surgeons to remove uterine fibroids using a laparoscope to avoid major surgery. The device is used to break up, or morcellate, a fibroid into fragments inside a woman's abdomen, before a surgeon can extract them using a vacuum.
