What a load of silly objections
JohnD you're in full troll mode I see..
Campbell has his opinions, but almost all of the time he's only quoting respectable (or government, at least) sources.
He's absolutely not an anti-vaxxer - you don't have a clue if you say that.
Here, he queried the injection method, but it's the Danish guy who's citing the research:
Rigshospitalet | rigshospitalet · Department of Clinical Microbiology
Professor of Clinical Microbiology
https://www.rigshospitalet.dk/english/research/Pages/profiles/niels-hoeiby.aspx
Some 781 papers:

That fact that it's on youtube or passed on by this Campbell bloke doesn't alter the information*. It's irrelevant. That's called shooting the messenger.
"Injections haven't been done that way for ages".... Oh Really, ask a dentist! The aspiration requirement depends on what's in the syringe. OK for most things it's not critical, and it's easier not to, but for some things it is.
JohnD's link decrying the practice is based on convenience, it doesn't mention any pathological reason, so it's irrelevant.
"They know about/are briefed to offer it and do it this way anyway" - no they don't all. Mine didn't. One said she wasn't a nurse and didn't know what aspiration was. At least some of the syringes they use are one use only which limits how much if at all you can push and pull.
*"Cambell fakes his data" I've not found that, can you give a link?? I know he quoted something from Japan which was labelled fake.
"Bleeding from arm site" - this has absolutely nothing to do with that.
"There aren't any blood vessels" yes there are. Not many, which is why the deltoid is chosen. Look it up: "Within the fasciculus, each individual
muscle cell, called a
muscle fiber, is surrounded by connective tissue called the endomysium. Skeletal
muscles have an abundant supply of
blood vessels and nerves." He says Gray's Anatomy has a drawing with a big blood vessel in the middle of the deltoid.
"He's making money from his youtube channel." He claims he's allowed ads at the front to help to pay his costs. I don't know. I found this "1,000 views bring in between $0.25 - $4.00 through ads after
Youtube takes their cut. If, for example, a video has 300k views, you would
earn between $75 - $1200. A video with 1 million views could make between $250 - $4000." Not fortunes. I have webspace costing not much, but I don't host youtubes..
I'm pretty cynical about things but I wouldn't knock him for a couple of ads.
IT Minion : It's been published in a BMJ paper as quoted. NOT peer reviewed yet. Time will tell.
