Rights & Ethics

The Vaccine Culture War is heating up. Ground zero is America, Europe and other economically developed countries, where the pharmaceutical industrial complex is raising an iron fist to protect multi-billion dollar profits by disempowering the people.
Vaccines are pharmaceutical products that come with risks that can be greater for some people. If you choose to vaccinate, ask 8 questions before you do.
Nancy Herndon Cale, a well-known and beloved member of the autism community for the past two decades, died Aug. 11, 2017 of cancer. She was 73. The NVIC staff and volunteers remember and are grateful for Nancy’s strength and compassion during her many years of service helping others, including the years she worked at NVIC counseling families of children who were injured or died following vaccine reactions.
With CDC narrowing of contraindications that qualify for a medical exemptions, vaccine risks are not equally shared by all. Why are the lives of those at risk for vaccine injury valued less by public health officials than the lives of immune compromised children?
NVIC Cofounder and President Barbara Loe Fisher reviews recent efforts to block freedom to publicly dissent about vaccine safety and the ethics of mandatory vaccination laws. Parallels are drawn between the “blacklist era” of the 1950’s and current efforts to eliminate civil liberties, including the human right to freedom of speech and conscience.
