Two Children’s Health Defense (CHD) staff members, who are also parents of vaccine-injured children, will testify Tuesday when the U.S. Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations holds its first hearing in over 20 years on the impact of vaccine injury.
Brian Hooker, Ph.D., CHD’s chief scientific officer, told the Senate panel about his son, Steven, who was injured at age 15 months, after receiving three vaccines at his well-baby visit. Steven is now 27 years old, cannot speak and requires 24/7 care.
Polly Tommey, program director for CHD.TV, told the story of her son, Billy, who was “never the same” after receiving a measles-mumps-rubellla (MMR) vaccine at age 13 months. Billy is now an adult, diagnosed with severe autism.
Other families with vaccine-injured children will also share stories about how vaccines have changed their lives and the lives of those around them.
Medical and scientific experts will testify about the extensive research and data on vaccine injuries, much of which has been suppressed by health agencies and medical institutions.
The U.S. Senate hearing, “Voices of the Vaccine Injured,” will begin at 3:00 p.m. in Room 216 of the Hart Senate Office Building on Capitol Hill in Washington.
