Start with the data, stay with the people. That’s the pulse of our conversation with Brian Hooker, PhD—biochemical engineer, researcher, and chief scientific officer at Children’s Health Defense—who traces how a family crisis led to two decades of FOIA digging, contested publications, and a book designed to make complex evidence visible to every parent. We unpack what happens when you compare vaccinated and unvaccinated groups in real-world studies, why some signals around chronic illness and neurodevelopment keep appearing, and how clear visuals can change minds faster than long abstracts.
