The AVN urges you to investigate before you vaccinate
We believe it is a parent's right to choose what's best for their child...some would say that this is one of the most basic rules of any civilised society. Yet governments all over the world have abridged or denied the right to free choice when it comes to vaccinations, vaccines and immunisations. The Australian Vaccination Network is working to help parents take back that right to free and informed choice by allowing them to see the less publicised side of this important issue before making a decision.
Stop the Australian Vaccination Network - vs the Australian Vaccination Network
An organisation called Stop the Australian Vaccination Network (SAVN) which has been set up to silence the AVN and to take away our legal right to share medically-based, fully-referenced data on the risks and ineffectiveness of vaccines, has taken out a series of complaints against the AVN via the NSW Health Care Complaints Commission (HCCC) and other State and Federal bodies. They believe that we in Australia do not have the legal right to communicate with each other either online or in person (eg at seminars or via the media). The HCCC has been corresponding with the AVN regarding this issue for over 12 months and have recently released a statement warning parents about our information due to our refusal to state that we are anti-vaccine - a position we have never taken nor will we ever take that stance.
We believe we've proven that the HCCC has no jurisdiction over our organisation, that the investigation was biased and their actions equate to censorship and urge anyone interested in this issue to read the correspondence which you can find by clicking here.
The AVN responds to accusations made against us in the Sydney Morning Herald
The media has come out in force to oppose the AVN and the families and health professionals our organisation represents and supports. An article appeared in the Sydney Morning Herald on Tuesday, the 27th of July which made some very inaccurate and defamatory statements against the AVN. Our organisation has responded to the accusation and we invite you to read our response by clicking here.
