The Vaccine Injury Epidemic Event (VIE)
National Mall - Washington, DC
Nov. 14, 2019

Those tiny miracles. God’s most precious gift to us. We hold them in wonder just moments after they are born. We love them in a way we never thought we could love anyone and they love and trust us in a way that no one else ever will. Then one day, we wake up, and they’re as big as we are, ready to go out in the world and make their own way, and hold their own babies in their arms, completing the natural order of life.

But for many children, the natural order of life will never be completed. Some have already died. Some will one day join the ranks of the working disabled. And others will grow old and die in state homes with the bodies of adults and the brains of babies. For these children, the natural order of life has been forever changed by manmade viral and bacterial vaccines they were required by law to use.

We are here today to witness the suffering of children, who have no voice and have no choice except the voice and choice that we, their mothers and fathers, give to them.

Crowd during VIE event

We stand here united in our commitment to challenge unscientific vaccine policies 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 and oppose inhumane public health laws that violate civil and human rights. 15 16 17 18

Many of us, who made the pilgrimage to be here, know the pain of watching a healthy child die or regress after vaccination and become chronically ill or disabled. 19 20 21 22 We know the pain of being marginalized and discriminated against by doctors 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 and government officials for standing up, speaking out and refusing to sacrifice our children in the name of the greater good. 30 31 32 33 34

We are here because we love and want to protect our children. And there is no power on earth greater than that love.

As mothers and now grandmothers, in 1982 Kathi Williams and I joined with other parents of DPT vaccine injured children and launched the vaccine safety and informed consent movement in America. 35 Through the non-profit National Vaccine Information Center, our mission since then has been to prevent vaccine injuries and deaths through public education and defend the ethical principle of informed consent to medical risk taking. 36 37

Kathi and I remember this day 33 years ago. We had spent four long years waging an epic David and Goliath battle on Capitol Hill against a rich and powerful pharmaceutical industry blackmailing Congress by threatening to stop producing childhood vaccines when, on November 14, 1986, President Reagan reluctantly signed the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act 38 into law over the objections of drug company executives and federal agency officials. To the bitter end, the government and drug companies wanted that Act to eliminate all vaccine injury lawsuits. 39 40 41 42 43

Instead, with no personal computers, no cell phones and no Internet, a small group of parents of DPT vaccine injured children managed to protect the legal right of parents to file a medical malpractice vaccine injury lawsuit against negligent doctors and to sue drug companies when there is evidence a vaccine could have been made less harmful.

For parents who did not have the money to sue, the 1986 Act created what was supposed to be a less expensive and time-consuming administrative compensation program alternative to filing a lawsuit.

For the first time, the U.S. government admitted that - just like any other pharmaceutical product - vaccines can cause severe reactions: reactions like brain inflammation, permanent brain damage, paralysis and death.

For the first time, preventing vaccine injuries and deaths was elevated to a national priority in a federal law.

Now doctors would be required to give parents vaccine and disease risk information before vaccinating children; and to record vaccine reactions in medical records and report them to a public Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System. And the government would have to fund vaccine science research and make vaccines less harmful.

So, in many ways, November 14, 1986 was an historic day.

But we had been fighting for so long to protect the Act from industry greed and government overreach, that we never saw the betrayal coming. On November 14,1986, we did not know that the very same lawmakers sponsoring the Act were already working behind the scenes to dismantle it.

By the end of 1987, without our knowledge, Congress quietly amended the law and handed doctors a liability shield from vaccine injury lawsuits. 44

Then, in the early 1990s, Congress added more amendments to weaken the vaccine safety provisions, 45 and allowed the Departments of Health and Justice to systematically gut the federal compensation program with rule making so fewer vaccine injured children would be compensated. 46 47 And, all along, the vaccine safety studies parents were promised were never done. 48 49

The final betrayal came in 2011, when the U.S. Supreme Court did what Congress refused to do in 1986. Ignoring the law’s legislative history, 50 51 the court majority granted the request by Big Pharma,52 medical trade 53 and government 54 and effectively shielded drug companies from all legal accountability for harm vaccines do to children. 55

Today, the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act looks nothing like the one signed into law in November 1986. 56 57 58 59 60 61 62

Still, it is the only U.S. law confirming that government licensed and state mandated vaccines can and do injure and kill people.

So what else has happened since November 14, 1986?

Four billion dollars in compensation has been awarded to over 6,000 Americans - but two out three vaccine victims are turned away. 63

Today, most of the awards go to adults injured by flu shots, 64 65 66 while thousands of families whose children have died or suffered catastrophic vaccine injuries are left with nothing but medical bills and shattered lives. 67 Clearly, public health officials do not want to concede that the risks of vaccination for children are far greater than 1 in a million. 68

About 35,000 bad health outcomes after vaccination, including injuries and deaths, are reported to the government every year. 69 That number is less than one percent of the total 70 because doctors are not penalized for failing to report.

Since 1986, nine more vaccines have been licensed and mandated for children 71 72 and there are twice as many drug companies making and selling them. 73

Vaccination forces atypical inflammatory responses in the body to produce artificial immunity 74 75 and, today, infants and children are subjected to that process three times as often. The numbers of childhood vaccines have tripled from 23 doses of seven vaccines 76 at a cost of $80 per child in 1986, 77 to 69 doses of 16 vaccines at a staggering cost of $3,000 per child. 78 79

But what has happened to the health of the most highly vaccinated child and young adult populations in our nation’s history?

They are sicker than ever. Millions of children and young adults are filling crowded special education classrooms 80 and doctors offices in greater and greater numbers. They are crippled by an unprecedented epidemic of chronic disease and disability marked by chronic inflammation in the brain and body, 81 82 83 which is common in most individuals diagnosed with a developmental, mental, behavior, autoimmune or allergic disorder.

  • Today, 1 child in 5 is learning disabled; 84 85 in 1976, it was 1 in 17. 86
  • Today, 1 child in 6 under age eight, 87 1 in 2 adolescents, and 1 in 4 young adults is diagnosed with a mental, behavior or emotional disorder; 88
  • There has been an unexplained 55 percent increase in depression and anxiety in children since 2003; 89 90 91
  • Today, 1 child in 13 has a food allergy, 92 often life threatening, and food allergies have increased 50 percent among children since 1997; 93 94 95
  • Today, 1 child in 40 develops autism; 96 it was 1 in 2,500 in 1991; 97 98
  • Today, 1 child in 166 has active epilepsy with recurring seizures, 99 and epilepsy is mysteriously increasing among both children and adults; 100 101
  • Today, 1 child in 400 has type 1 or type 2 diabetes, 102 which increased 20 to 40 percent in one decade,103 104 and has increased 382 percent among Americans of all ages since 1988. 105 106

Millions of children and adults are suffering with other types of inflammatory brain and immune system disorders like rheumatoid arthritis, 107 lupus, thyroid disease, guillain barre syndrome, multiple sclerosis, and inflammatory bowel disease. 108

On top of that, America has the worst infant mortality, 109 maternal mortality 110 and life expectancy rate 111 of all developed nations.

This is a failing public health report card of historic proportions.

Today, everybody knows somebody who was healthy, got vaccinated and was never healthy again.

Just like the 1982 TV documentary DPT: Vaccine Roulette 112 and the 1985 book DPT: A Shot in the Dark 113 were wake-up calls for America 37 years ago, in 2019,Vaxxed: The People’s Truth movie 114 and this Vaccine Injury Epidemic event 115 are the latest in a long series of warnings that the health of our nation is being destroyed one child at a time.

The biggest public health emergency in America today is not 1200 cases of measles. 116 117 It is the one being covered up by government agencies working overtime with industry, medical trade and mainstream media to distract, deceive, stonewall and restrict the freedom of Americans to take back control of their health. 118 119 120

There are states in this country today, where children cannot go to daycare or get a school education without five dozen doses of vaccines. 121  Pediatricians are refusing to provide medical care to children who are not strictly vaccinated according to the government schedule, even when there is a past history of serious vaccine reactions and injury. 122 That is because 99 percent of Americans, including most immune-compromised persons, do not qualify for a medical exemption under narrow federal guidelines. 123

Lucrative public-private business partnerships between federal agencies and pharmaceutical corporations 124 are making it easy for experimental vaccines to be fast tracked to licensure, 125 like ones for HIV/AIDS and herpes, influenza and TB, that will be forced on adults, as well as children. 126 127 128 The vaccine status of all Americans is being closely monitored by the government in electronic health records tracking systems 129 130 131 to make sure everyone is vaccinated from cradle to the grave with or without consent.

Science is not perfect, doctors are not infallible, and vaccines carry unpredictable risks that are greater for some people. 132 133 134 If we do not get up off our knees and stop worshipping scientists and doctors who have too little knowledge and have been given too much power, tomorrow we will not be able to get on a bus, train or plane; enter a store or sports arena; obtain a driver’s license or passport, file our taxes or function in society without getting every vaccine that industry creates and the government orders us to get.

And the ones who know deep in the core of their being that children are in danger, are the mothers, who carry babies inside them for nine months and give birth and are endowed with a primal instinct God gave women so they have the courage to protect their babies from harm until they are able to survive on their own. That biological imperative is hard wired into our DNA. It is what protects the survival of every species on this earth. And yet, mothers, who know their children best, are being bullied, ridiculed and punished if we use our intellect and listen our gut instincts and refuse to violate our conscience when caring for our children. 135

The right to autonomy and protection of bodily integrity is the first human right. 136

If you cannot voluntarily decide when and for what reason you are willing to risk your life or the life of your child, your unalienable right to life and liberty has been taken from you.

The right of the state to tell us what to do to our bodies or the bodies of our children ends where our right to protect our lives and our children’s lives begins.

It is time to reject the cruel pseudo-ethic of utilitarianism propping up mandatory vaccination laws that justify child sacrifice by reducing what is moral to a mathematical equation. 137 138

When the State considers one of us to be expendable, then we are all considered expendable.

And if the State can tag, track down and force individuals to be injected with biologicals of known and unknown toxicity today, then there will be no limit on which individual freedoms the state can take away in the name of the greater good tomorrow.

We can throw off the chemical chains making us sick if we act to instill truth, transparency, integrity and compassion in government. We must elect lawmakers who believe in and will act to protect freedom of thought, speech, and conscience and reform public health laws. 139  

There is no greater calling for Americans in the 21st century than to defend those civil and human rights that protect against tyranny.  140 141

We will not be silent.

We will not go away.

We will never give up.

We are the daughters and sons of liberty, and our mission continues:

No forced vaccination. Not in America.

Barbara. I am so amazed at you for your courage and tenacity in the face of government overthrow of our rights via the organic constitution. People must face up, stand up for their rights, even with the threat of persecution. Do people realize that attorneys were never legislated into federal or state law? As per Rod Class .. 2012.... And they keep rewiring the constitution.. despicable fraud and corruption.

As long as there are billions of dollars of annual profits at stake, and as long as admitting the truth will result in multi-billion dollar lawsuits against Big Pharma and the medical profession until the end of time, those in power will never allow the truth to be told and will continue to condemn untold thousands of people every year to permanent injury, disability, and death.

Why can not I or any upstanding Citizen of the United States of America, a Country which boasts of Liberty and justice for all, where Freedom(supposedly) Rings... with all safety measures in place to address the Senate and Hse in their space? The very space we the people afford them through our taxes.So in truth whose space does it really belong to? Why do these elected officials suddenly become an elite class of people that can't be reached, that can not be touched.. WE, They speak of Safety and Secure.. this is not true there is no safety or security when NO ONE if not one of them can be reached out to… WE have continuously reached out to this elected population and get NO response.. that is no different than a baby fearing and suffering abandonment by its Mother when it cries out to her and gets no response.. its like death to an infant.. and so it feels the same for the people of this country.. its abandonment … it is a death.. all we get back from this elected group of elitists is how hard they are trying.. trying to do WHAT... to take all of our rights away so that their job is made easier to ignore us.. WHO and WHERE is the law that states NO one unless you are an elected official can be in the space that the taxpayers paid for.. SHOW me the law, the RULING... that keeps you and me from standing in front of the podium to speak out directly into their faces in the very space that they congregate in ... WHY do we continue treating these spaces and these peoples as if they were gods and the space as if it were some sacred holy place that only the privilege can place foot upon it... WHY have we given them this authority and power? IN the name of what.. THESE are man made rituals, customs, and beliefs.. all of which are subject to scrutiny, questioning. investigating their usefulness to the people who put them there... I say we look into this matter and change the law … change the ruling.. and open up the floor to speakers such as the Barbara Loe Fisher, Robert F Kennedy Jr., Dr. Tenpenny, Dr.Wakefield and all of the speakers of the V,I.E. We shouldn't allow that they or WE the people have to stand out in the cold hoping to be heard on any topic of concern to the people.. I believe that somewhere the law or ruling has been mis-interpreted where we believe that the only way to reach these people is by exercising the 1st amendment.. There is something we all have been made blind to.. IF we got these people elected.. and they don't listen.. we can't continue believing that there is no way to get on that floor to address them directly...other than more and more elaborately constructed labyrinth that makes it virtually impossible to talk to them as they should be spoken to... Where is the Freedom being practiced then? The right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.. where is this role model being played out.. please do not cave into what we have always been told and brainwashed to believe....WE WERE ALSO TOLD VACCINES WERE SAFE.. .. please.. you with the genius to step up and have awaken to the truth.. with the law degrees, education, the right to be heard can not be just relegated to only one man made ruling.. We need to stop believing that we can not find another way besides the right to peacefully assemble(1st amendment).. and hopefully make a difference..Who ared these people believe they are once in office.. this elitism has got to go..they belong to the people and not to themselves... they are suppose to be our SERVANTS not the other way around.. so why do we keep treating them as royalty above us all.. we need to stop.. I am not saying we become disrespectful.. or unkind.. or behave in ways not becoming of a Citizen of the United States... If we are to be the proud people we say we are.. we don't have to become violent to take back what really we are at fault for having given it to them in the first place and then maintain that belief by the way we look at them, the way we revere them, and go into states of awe.. .. as the authority figures,,, they are NOT.. they are not our authority.. we ARE... I am my own authority... we all are.. voting them out is not the only way... having a hissy fit is neither... nor is it forever carrying signs and torches.. WE need to demand their attention for it is our right to do so.. and I should be able to stand in the space where we all have believed for way to long is holier than thou and speak freely what they need to hear because that is their job.. that's why they were elected by us.......

Thank you for what you're doing! We definitely need to make this a personal responsibility for all of us to fight against those corporations who are enforcing their experiments on us and if anything bad happens - bear no responsibility at all! This is against all of our basic rights and I can't believe they're getting away with it for so long! Look at this list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_biomedical_companies_by_revenue and check how much money they make every year. All of those corrupt corporations are the biggest vaccine producers in the world. We really need to fight our way to stop them and I thank you so much for what you're doing! Please keep spreading awareness and let people know that we're in danger!
