DO YOU WANT TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT WHAT YOUR DOCTOR DOES AND DOES NOT KNOW ABOUT VACCINES?

DO YOU WANT TO KNOW HOW TO PROTECT YOUR HUMAN AND LEGAL RIGHT TO MAKE INFORMED, VOLUNTARY DECISIONS ABOUT WHAT VACCINES YOU AND YOUR CHILDREN GET?

Then you need to register TODAY for the Third International Public Conference on Vaccination being sponsored by the National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC) Nov. 7-9, 2002 at the Crystal Gateway Marriott Hotel in Arlington, Virginia (just minutes from Reagan National Airport). Don't miss the low hotel rate guaranteed only if you register by next Wednesday, October 15, 2002.

DON'T MISS THIS HISTORIC CONFERENCE that is held only once every two years!

NVIC is marking its 20th Anniversary of launching the vaccine safety and informed consent movement in America. The theme of this conference is:

TRUTH IN SCIENCE: The Right to Know and the Freedom to Decide.

Come and learn more about vaccines and the critical need for more research into how and why vaccines cause injury and death.

Come and learn more about how vaccine policies and new vaccine laws in your state will restrict your informed consent rights.

Come and join with parents and health care professionals who believe Americans should be able to make informed vaccine choices without being punished.

COME AND EMPOWER YOURSELF TO TAKE A STAND FOR YOUR FREEDOM TO CHOOSE THE KIND OF HEALTH CARE YOU WANT FOR YOURSELF AND YOUR CHILDREN.

After you register for the conference, come back to this email and read the following real-life stories. They will reinforce your decision to come to Washington on Nov. 7 to be with other people who do not want to happen to them what happened to these Moms and their children:

STATE OFFICIALS PERSECUTE MOM AND HER VACCINE INJURED CHILD: Yesterday NVIC was contacted by a Mom with a vaccine brain injured child in one of the two states in America that does not allow a religious or conscientious/philosophical belief exemption to vaccination. The only way parents can exempt their children in those states is to find a doctor who will write a medical exemption.

This Mom not only has a vaccine injured child but also has a nephew who reacted to his vaccinations and is autistic. In her family, there is also a history of Tourette's and multiple sclerosis.

A state health official, who has never examined her disabled child, told this mother he did not believe vaccines caused the child's brain injury and refused to exempt the child from vaccination. He challenged her to take him to court. Because she was trying to protect her child from further vaccine brain damage she could not find a doctor in the state to treat her child so she went out of state and found two specialists who wrote her medical exemptions to vaccination. Both medical exemptions were denied by state public health officials.

She is afraid. She is desperate to protect her children from harm. She can't believe this is happening to her in America.

THE SCARIEST NIGHT OF HER LIFE: A week ago NVIC received an email entitled "The scariest night of my life." It was from a Mom who described how she was attending a party at a friend's house and witnessed a newborn baby suffer a violent vaccine reaction. The newborn's mother said her baby had been given four shots at once five days earlier. The baby had been showing all the signs and symptoms of a classic vaccine reaction ever since the vaccinations, including non-stop crying that alternated with bouts of high pitched screaming.

According to the Mom who wrote NVIC the email, at the party she watched the baby's eyes widen with "this look of terror" and then she saw the baby's tiny body stiffen into a rigid board with toes pointed like a ballerina as she descended into a post-vaccination seizure. "You could tell by the look in her eyes that her body was being wracked with pain," she wrote.

A chiropractor, who was at the party, immediately adjusted the baby and the baby's body relaxed as she came out of the seizure. The screaming fits started to subside. The baby's mother shook her head and said that she thought her baby was not feeling well at the time of vaccination but her doctor said it didn't matter if the baby was getting sick and went ahead and vaccinated the baby anyway. "For all the money they spend and the years of education [they get], it becomes more clear that these doctors have no common sense!" the Mom wrote in her email. "It scares me to think I know more than some of these doctors do about a subject so important and parents are putting their child's lives in their hands!"

[Chiropractors who attend the Third International Public Conference on Vaccination will receive 15 hours of continuing education credits through Life Chiropractic College - West.]
