It was Dr. Andrew Wakefield’s seminal 1998 article (discussed in JB Handley’s Substack) that planted the first seed of awareness for me. I recall thinking, Hmmm ... could vaccines be related to autism? That little thought reached—one that I imagine many parents have had— started my journey of inquiry. It took me almost a decade to reach the point of knowing, without a doubt, that toxins and vaccines (environmental factors) were either the direct cause or highly involved in the epidemic of chronic diseases in children, including autism.

Today, we have many studies that make it abundantly clear that our children are suffering due to what is being done to them—through vaccines, toxic food, fluoride in water, and more. Parents, if you are new to this journey of discovery, pause on the vaccines while you make it your mission to learn enough to make an informed decision.

The books mentioned in JB Handley’s article are essential reads, but I also encourage you to explore my latest book, Vax Facts: What to Consider Before Vaccinating at All Ages & Stages of Life, co-authored with DeeDee Hoover (Just a Mom) and published in 2025.

​It is time we expose the truth. The flawed “tobacco science” that has kept parents in the dark about the dangers of vaccines needs to be rejected. Since no proper long-term studies exist on vaccine safety, we must assume they are all unsafe until proven otherwise. That is not an “anti-vaccine” or “anti-science” stance—it is simply applying the basic principles of scientific rigor.

I support RFK Jr. in calling for real scientific studies. Let’s get the data. The CDC, NIH, and every major medical institution are sitting on vast amounts of data. The solution is simple—just pull the data for all unvaccinated children, age-match them to vaccinated children, and examine all health outcomes. Then, report what you find.

​This is one of the most informative pieces you’ll read on this topic—share it with others who need to hear the truth!

Yours in good health,

Hello to all health freedom friends and family,
In February 2025, the National Health Federation (NHF) filed an amicus brief supporting my petition before the U.S. Supreme Court. This brief highlights the injustice I’ve faced and the need for the Court to examine the actions of medical boards that punish those who challenge the vaccine narrative. After publishing research on the health outcomes of vaccinated versus unvaccinated children, I found myself targeted by the Oregon Medical Board, which revoked my medical license. The brief underscores the role of pharmaceutical interests in pushing medical boards to silence doctors who speak out.

Here are the key takeaways from the brief:

• ​My Influence: With over 500 million views on my YouTube channel, I’ve built trust with families seeking non-pharmaceutical options for their children. My research on vaccines has helped many families make informed choices about their children's health.
• The Role of Medical Boards: The brief calls attention to how state medical boards, target doctors like me who publish research showing the superior health outcomes of unvaccinated children, all while aligning with pharmaceutical interests.
• Corruption and Censorship: The NHF argues that the Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB) is complicit in censoring those who challenge the mainstream narrative, particularly in regard to vaccines, by using their influence to revoke licenses and suppress research.
• The Need for Justice: The brief emphasizes that my case is not just about me—it's about exposing the corruption in the medical licensing system and ensuring doctors can practice freely without fear of retaliation for their research and views.

This case is crucial not only for my ability to practice medicine but for the future of medical freedom and informed consent. The NHF’s brief brings to light how my case is emblematic of a larger problem where those who challenge the pharmaceutical agenda are silenced and persecuted. It’s about standing up for our right to provide accurate, unbiased information to families and to allow them to make informed decisions about their children’s health. The U.S. Supreme Court must address this systemic issue to protect our freedoms.

I need your support now more than ever. This is a fight not just for my ability to continue my research and practice, but for the right of all doctors to speak openly and honestly about health matters, without fear of retaliation. Together, we can expose the corruption within the system and restore balance to medical practice.
