I do not trust Kennedy. He is for trial lawyers.
Perhaps Kennedy did just jump on the bandwagon so to speak.
There are many others who can’t get any media attention but he is a Kennedy so there you have his use-fullness.
Barbara Loe Fisher will be one of the speakers and she is one that I pay attention to here is a little about her,
“Barbara Loe Fisher is president of the National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC), a non-profit charity she co-founded with parents of DPT vaccine injured children in 1982. For the past three decades, she has led a national, grassroots movement and public information campaign to institute vaccine safety reforms and informed consent protections in the public health system. She has researched, analyzed and publicly articulated the major issues involving the science, policy, law, ethics and politics of vaccination to become one of the world’s leading non-medical, consumer advocacy experts on the subject.
“She has authored position statements and articles that have contributed to the national dialogue about vaccine safety and informed consent, including “The Moral Right to Conscientious, Philosophical and Personal Belief Exemption to Vaccination” (National Vaccine Advisory Committee 1997); “Shots in the Dark” (The Next City Magazine 1999); “Smallpox and Forced Vaccination: What Every American Needs to Know” (The Vaccine Reaction 2002); “In the Wake of Vaccines” (Mothering Magazine 2004); “Vaccines, Autism & Chronic Inflammation: The New Epidemic” (Autism File 2009); “Whooping Cough Outbreaks and Vaccine Failures” (NVIC Newsletter 2010); “Doctors Denying Vaccine Risks: An American Tragedy” (NVIC Newsletter 2011); “Influenza Deaths: The Hype vs. the Evidence” (NVIC Newsletter 2012); “Measles Reports in America: What Does It mean?” (NVIC Newsletter 2013); “Leave Parents Free to Choose Vaccines” (USA Today 2014), and The Vaccine Culture War in America: Are You Ready? (2015).
The daughter of a nurse and an Army officer, she graduated from the University of Maryland with a B.A. in English and was a writer and community relations professional at a teaching hospital before becoming a Mom in 1978.
