Episode 112: Mandatory Vaccine Laws with guest Jonathan Lockwood

by

  • How these laws have changed childrens’ and parents’ rights.
  • How vital medical decisions are being taken away from doctors and patients, and are done thru paper reviews by bureaucrats.
  • Surprising statistics regarding the measles outbreaks that are supposedly the reason for these new laws.
  • What you can do if you want to fight back against any of these laws.
