Investment in partnerships and other deals to develop and manufacture vaccines has been on a tear — and accelerating since the swine flu pandemic began. Billions in government grants are bringing better, faster ways to develop and manufacture vaccines. Rising worldwide emphasis on preventive health care, plus the advent of the first multibillion-dollar vaccines, have further boosted their appeal.
While prescription drug sales are forecast to rise by a third in five years, vaccine sales should double, from $19 billion last year to $39 billion in 2013, according to market research firm Kalorama Information. That's five times the $8 billion in vaccine sales in 2004.

Huh. You mean there's money in vaccines? But what if they aren't as safe as the government thought way back when there were only 3 or 4 of them commonly used? What if they have injured millions of people since then? What if those people all sue?
So the government (aka politicians) can either get in bed with the liability-free vaccine makers and make a buck for themselves OR demand better testing of vaccines and vaccine ingredients and figure out where to get the money the vaccine injured people will need for medical care.
Extraordinary? Really?

Your explanation seems to tend towards "The organization is involved in an unlawful, multi-decade conspiracy to maintain the status quo at all costs." I doubt this.
The explanation that you desire requires more and more extraordinary narratives over time. This makes me more skeptical.
