Two Days Only: Watch This CHD.TV ‘Spotlight on Autism’ Special Event
Watch Children’s Health Defense CEO Mary Holland, Chief Scientific Officer Brian Hooker, Ph.D., and Rolf Hazlehurst, CHD senior staff attorney discuss science, vaccines and autism — and get a sneak peek into CHD’s UpClose private events.
Watch Mary Holland, Esq., CEO of Children’s Health Defense (CHD), CHD Senior Staff Attorney Rolf Hazlehurst, Esq., and CHD Chief Scientific Officer Brian Hooker, Ph.D. — all of whom have been personally affected by autism — as they engage in an important discussion about autism and their work to expose its causes and end the epidemic.
CHD.TV will broadcast this special event here on Wednesday, April 24, at 8:30 p.m. ET (5:30 p.m. PT) and again on Saturday, April 27, at 1 p.m. ET (10 a.m. PT).
Participants will discuss the science on how vaccines cause autism, CHD’s role in Hazlehurst v. HHS, a legal motion challenging government fraud around autism, and other ways that CHD is championing truth and justice in the battle to end the autism epidemic.
This is an opportunity to hear evidence-based science and better understand what’s behind the autism epidemic.
It’s also an opportunity to learn more about CHD’s new UpClose private events.
“I hope that you will find value in hearing from my colleagues and me, all of whom have been personally affected by autism and are deeply engaged in autism advocacy and litigation,” Holland said.
Meet the panelists
Rolf Hazlehurst, Esq. is CHD’s senior staff attorney. Before joining CHD, he was an assistant district attorney general for Tennessee. Hazlehurst gained extensive jury trial experience during his 15 years as a criminal prosecutor.
Since 2003, Hazlehurst has fought for the rights of vaccine-injured children. His son’s case, Hazlehurst v. HHS, was the second test case in the Omnibus Autism Proceeding under the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program.
In April 2024, he filed a motion alleging fraud upon the courts by U.S. Department of Justice attorneys representing the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services in vaccine injury cases. This motion could finally expose the government’s lies and cover-up of the vaccine-autism connection.
Brian S. Hooker, Ph.D., is CHD’s chief scientific officer. He is also professor emeritus and former Frances P. Owen Distinguished Professor of Biology at Simpson University in Redding, California, where he specializes in microbiology and biotechnology.
Hooker has been active in vaccine safety since 2001 and has a 25-year-old son with autism. In 2013 and 2014, he worked with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) whistleblower, Dr. William Thompson, to expose fraud and corruption within vaccine safety research in the CDC, which led to the release of over 10,000 pages of documents. He is co-author of the New York Times Bestseller “Vax-Unvax: Let the Science Speak” with Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Mary Holland, Esq. is CHD’s CEO of Children’s Health Defense and has been involved in the vaccine choice and health freedom movement for over two decades. Before joining CHD’s staff in the fall of 2019, Holland directed the Graduate Lawyering Program at the New York University School of Law for 15 years and lectured at Columbia Law School on international human rights advocacy.
Holland has testified in state legislatures across the country to retain or expand religious, medical and philosophical exemptions to vaccine mandates. She co-authored two books on vaccines, “Vaccine Epidemic: How Corporate Greed, Biased Science, and Coercive Government Threaten Our Human Rights, Our Health, and Our Children” and “The HPV Vaccine on Trial: Seeking Justice for a Generation Betrayed,” numerous articles about vaccine law and policy, and co-edited the book, “Turtles All the Way Down: Vaccine Science and Myth.”
