For thirty years, one courageous and compassionate woman, with support of her devoted husband, Paul Arthur, has been the pioneer in vaccine safety for the betterment of humanity in the U.S. and worldwide. Her name is Barbara Loe Fisher.

Fisher is mother of a vaccine injured child. She therefore not only conducts the non-profit organization she co-founded and directs, the National Vaccine Information Center, with utmost professionalism, but also straight from the heart.

Fisher has dedicated her career to empowering individuals to make informed voluntary health care choices.

At a time of the year when millions of the people in the world are grateful for Fisher's leadership and groundbreaking research in the field of vaccine injury prevention, she reaches out to all of those who have braved the battle for health freedom - inlcuding loyal readers of this writer.

Fisher's letter is presented to the reader here because it is deserved. Without the readers' loyal support and forwarding links to this writer's articles, the millions gaining truth about vaccines would still be in the dark about vaccine safety.  They would lack courage to make educated decisions when coerced, led to feel guilty by health professionals when they decide vaccines are not the wisest choice for them or their children.

Thanks for Standing Up and Being Counted in 2009

by Barbara Loe Fisher

2009 is almost over and 2010 will bring a whole new set of challenges that may be every bit as difficult as those we have faced this year. But I would like to pause during this season of remembrance and celebration to give thanks to those who made 2009 special for this small charity working to prevent vaccine injuries and deaths through public education and defend the informed consent ethic in medicine.

On the nearly 30 year journey that those of us at the National Vaccine Information Center have taken, every year men and women of conscience and conviction have stepped forward to help us protect those who have no voice and have no choice:

Dr. Joe Mercola & TechStars

Thank you, Dr. Joe Mercola of Mercola.com and the IT team led by Steve Rye and Techstars, for your generous in-kind donations of time and expertise to redesign and update the new NVIC website, which was launched in February 2009.

Dr. Mercola was given NVIC's Visionary Award for speaking out about why it is so important for all of us to take back control of our health as individuals and as a nation. He has been a leader this year in communicating the truth about H1N1 swine flu after NVIC launched a national public education program in April 2009 when the government declared a pandemic influenza public health emergency.

NVIC Conference Speakers & Attendees

I also want to thank the courageous, intellectually honest scientists, doctors, ethicists, journalists, legal experts, and health freedom advocates, who took the stage October 2-4, 2009 at NVIC's Fourth International Public Conference on Vaccination. You demonstrated why our call to "Show Us the Science and Give Us the Choice" is being taken seriously by millions of Americans defending their right to know and freedom to decide when making choices that affect their health and the health of their children.

And we can't forget the nearly 700 men and women from 44 states and 11 nations, who attended NVIC's Conference and raised more than $100,000 to launch a fund raising campaign for scientific research into the long term health outcomes of vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals. That groundbreaking research promises to fill in the big gaps in scientific knowledge about the vaccine benefit and risk equation for different people.

Principled Journalists

And I want to thank the principled journalists researching and writing for newspapers, radio, television and on the world wide web - who have not forgotten how to fairly report both sides of a story and have accurately and without prejudice reported what I and others working at the National Vaccine Information Center say and do. You give us hope that our decades of work to institute vaccine safety and informed consent protections in the mass vaccination system will be understood and acknowledged someday, even by fellow journalists and others attempting to demonize, isolate and stop what we are doing to make vaccines and public health polices safer. Responsible journalism contributes to responsible government, corporate accountability and truth in medicine and you should have confidence that millions of people in America and around the world are watching you and are grateful for your journalistic professionalism, integrity and courage.

Health Care Workers & Citizen Activists

And thank you to the health care workers and average Americans all across this country, who took it upon themselves in 2009 to become more educated about infectious disease, chronic disease and vaccination. Because you became informed and showed up at federally sponsored public engagement town hall meetings; and because you blogged and tweeted, and posted comments on media response boards; and because you became the kind of citizen activists needed to make a participatory democracy work, you helped to inform government about why the massive H1N1 swine flu vaccination campaign should remain voluntary in America, and why it is not a good idea to fast track unapproved and potentially reactive adjuvants into vaccines without thorough testing.

NVIC Staff & Donor Supporters

And I want to thank the small staff and group of volunteers at NVIC and the loyal, big-hearted donor supporters of NVIC - both those who have stood by us for three decades - and those of you who have joined us this year. You are making it possible for this little non-profit to be the mouse that roared. Special thanks to Albert and Claire Dwoskin; Dr. Stephanie Christner; Dr. Julian Whittaker; Dr. Troy Dukowitz and the good doctors of chiropractic at EPOC or believing that - together - we can make a difference with what we have to give.

Join With Us

In this season of thanksgiving and remembrance, I hope you will join us by adopting NVIC as one of your favorite charities. Your tax deductible donation given during the last few weeks of 2009 will help NVIC continue our public education, informed consent advocacy and scientific research programs in 2010. You will be taking a stand to protect your health, the health of our children and our nation.

Thank you to everyone who made 2009 a year filled with as many blessings to count as there were challenges to meet.

Happy holidays!
