Ive heard a lot of lawyers are afraid of the backlash from the establishment if they bring vaccine lawsuits

I asked a partner lawyer in a top international law firm [in London] and she dismissed that idea as wrong. "Unlikely.. I'd say".

It seems odd to me too. I doubt that there would be an establishment backlash. The first principle of law firms and the legal profession and their "establishment" is to get lots of lovely loot from swarms of high-paying clients. They look for big piles of money then figure out how to get a piece of the action. Pfizer has megatons of money. They obviously need to be sued. All that's needed is a plaintiff.

I'm making this part up, but I've long held that the first thing they teach in law school is:

"Yes, we know you are all wonderful ethical, moral, kind, generous, socially integrated lovely people. Put all that aside because this is about law, not that stuff. Law is the framework that holds civilisation together. All that goop is for people to mess around with in their own time in their personal messy lives. We're here to cut to the legal bottom line and move the money to our bottom line. And big heaps of it. If ethics as you imagine them conflict with law and cash flow, that's up to the legislators to fix. Get the case. Get the judgement. Get the loot."

The legal profession first defends its territory and cash flow. It pretty much IS the establishment.

"Not many lawyers would be willing to risk their entire professional future over one litigation."

Good grief, that is how lawyers make their reputations! One of the best lawyers I know has been admonished by his Law Society over ten times, he paid his own way through school brewing and selling 100 proof apricot brandy.

That is almost as silly as you saying Russian soldiers would not risk raping Ukrainian women for fear of their countries reputation.
