What is a Validated Instrument?
A validated instrument is a question, or series of questions, that has been shown to get accurate answers, where accuracy is defined as people actually answering the same questions that scientists think they’re asking. It sounds simple, but it isn’t. • What is the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System? When a vaccine is released for use in the general public, it’s important for the government to be able to track any side effects to see if it might be more dangerous than early testing showed. The VAERS system, allows them to do just that.
