What does it cost a physician to tell the truth — and what does the evidence actually show about vaccine safety, immune health, and children who have never been vaccinated?
In this episode of Pediatric Perspectives, I'm joined by Suzanne Humphries, M.D. — board-certified internist and nephrologist, and co-author of Dissolving Illusions: Disease, Vaccines, and the Forgotten History. Dr. Humphries has spent years studying vaccine history, immunology, and the clinical record, and like me, she's made professional choices that have come at a cost. This is one of the most substantive conversations I've had on this show.
In this episode, we cover:
What She Saw — and Couldn't Unsee
Dr. Humphries joined the Vaxxed bus tour at the end of 2016. She had no involvement in the film or the founding of the initiative — that grew out of Polly's personal story. What she encountered on the bus were families showing videos of healthy, engaged children, and then the shots, and then a child who was no longer there in the same way. Marriages that didn't survive. Grandparents following grown boys they had minimum control over. She eventually had to step outside and stand with the families waiting in line rather than stay inside for the interviews.
I have sat across from enough of those families in my own practice — three to five new ones a week for years — to understand exactly what she means. You cannot unsee what you see.
On the Vaccine Schedule
Dr. Humphries worked through the schedule directly, and I want to represent what she said accurately:
She calls for ending all pregnancy vaccines outright, hepatitis B at birth, flu shots, and Covid shots — none of which, she argues, produce meaningful herd or personal immunity. She describes the mumps vaccine as one that should never have been created, noting that Merck has faced serious accusations of falsifying its efficacy studies. The tetanus vaccine, she says, should be elective and age-appropriate — not given to newborns or infants. Gardasil/HPV vaccines she wants stopped immediately, citing a significant injury profile she has observed. On pertussis, she explains the IgG4 mechanism: repeated vaccination produces immune tolerance, which is why we see so much pertussis circulating in older vaccinated children and adults. Measles she acknowledges as the most complicated case — vaccination has disrupted the natural maternal immunity that previously protected infants through the placenta and breast milk, and the generation with genuine immune memory is aging out. She views that as a problem created by the program, not a justification for continuing it.
"The non-vaccinated children and infants have an absolute edge on their health… because they're normal. That's what it's supposed to look like." — Suzanne Humphries, M.D. Where Health Actually Comes From
I also asked about something I've observed over the course of my career: the apparent rise in childhood cancer. Dr. Humphries was careful not to overstate what the data shows — she acknowledged she can't offer precise statistics — but drew on something she witnessed directly: when she was leaving Bangor, Maine, a large, well-funded children's cancer institute had just opened that wasn't there at the start of her career. Her concern is that vaccine ingredients including animal DNA, viruses, and retroviruses — many not fully characterized — may interact with immune function in ways that demand better research. The vaccinated versus unvaccinated studies, she believes, would bring these patterns into clearer focus.
Drawing on her nephrology background, Dr. Humphries is direct about where foundational health actually comes from: good nutrition, adequate hydration, sunlight, and minimal pharmaceutical intervention. Hydration in particular — most people are chronically dehydrated, and the mineral and electrical balance the immune system depends on requires it. These are not radical ideas. They are basics that a medical culture organized around intervention has largely displaced.

@SuzanneHumphriesMD, @KidsFirst4Ever, @DoctorsAndScience A physician’s firsthand account of hospital vaccine protocols, medical ethics, and the importance of informed inquiry in pediatric and inpatient care.
In this episode of With the Wind with Dr. Paul, Paul Thomas, M.D. is joined by Suzanne Humphries, M.D. for a detailed discussion on institutional medicine, vaccine policy, and how standardized protocols can override individualized clinical judgment.
Dr. Humphries, a former hospital-based internist and nephrologist, explains how her questions about vaccination practices emerged not from ideology, but from years of direct clinical experience. As she recounts, her concerns developed gradually as she observed how policy-driven systems increasingly replaced physician discretion in inpatient care.
Understanding Why Viral Illness Lasts Longer and When Antibiotics Are Actually Needed
Parents across the Kids First 4Ever community have been asking the same questions this winter: Why do colds and flus seem to last for weeks? Can my child catch another infection while recovering from one? And when my pediatrician offers antibiotics, is that really necessary?
In this episode of With the Wind with Dr. Paul, DeeDee Hoover (J.A.M. — Just a Mom) steps into the host role to ask Dr. Paul the most frequently submitted parent questions from across multiple Kids First 4Ever platforms. The result is a practical, education-focused conversation that addresses the real concerns families are navigating right now—grounded in clinical experience and real-world observation.
What the Pandemic Revealed About Pediatric Risk, Informed Consent, and Decision-Making for Children
When COVID-19 emerged, families were inundated with information that often failed to clearly distinguish between adult and pediatric risk. In this episode of With the Wind, Paul Thomas, M.D., examines how children were affected by COVID-19 and how medical decision-making for minors unfolded during the pandemic.
The discussion centers on a core principle of pediatrics: children are not small adults. Pediatric care requires age-specific risk assessment, careful interpretation of data, and a clear understanding of how medical decisions may affect developing bodies over time.
A Legal and Scientific Examination of Belief, Data, and Accountability
In this compelling episode of With the Wind, Dr. Paul is joined by attorney Aaron Siri, Esq. for a deep exploration of vaccine safety, scientific transparency, and legal accountability. Drawing from sworn testimony, FDA documents, and decades of regulatory history, this conversation challenges long-held assumptions about how vaccines are tested, regulated, and defended in public discourse.
Aaron Siri brings a rare legal lens to pediatric healthcare—one grounded not in theory, but in court records, depositions, and federal filings. As a civil rights and vaccine litigation attorney, Siri has spent years examining what the data actually show versus what the public is told.
A grounded, physiology-first approach to winter respiratory illness
Each winter, families brace for what feels like an inevitable cycle of coughs, fevers, congestion, and emergency room visits. In With the Wind – Show 194, Dr. Paul Thomas is joined by Lawrence B. Palevsky, MD for a timely and deeply clarifying conversation about why winter sickness is so common—and how parents can respond without panic.
Rather than defaulting to fear-driven narratives or symptom suppression, this episode reframes winter illness through the lens of physiology, inflammation, and the body’s innate intelligence.
Examining early COVID treatment, vaccine policies, and spike protein concerns
In this episode of With the Wind: Science Revealed, Dr. Paul welcomes Dr. Peter McCullough, a highly published internist, cardiologist, and epidemiologist recognized for his early leadership during the COVID-19 pandemic. Their conversation focuses on early outpatient treatment, the lack of leadership from major medical institutions, concerns about the COVID-19 vaccine program, and new insights into spike protein persistence. This episode presents a clear and detailed look at what the data and clinical experience have shown.
When Institutions Withdrew, Early Treatment Emerged Elsewhere
Dr. Paul highlights Dr. McCullough’s landmark 2020 paper, Pathophysiological Basis and Rationale for Early Outpatient Treatment of SARS-CoV-2, which laid out the first organized outpatient treatment protocol in the early months of the pandemic. Dr. McCullough recounts his surprise that no major academic center—Harvard, Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic, or others—ever produced such a protocol or positioned itself as a leader in early treatment. Hospitals instead waited for NIH and IDSA guidance, which focused solely on inpatient care rather than preventing hospitalization and death. Reclaiming Authentic Motherhood Through Holistic Pediatric Care
In this powerful episode of Pediatric Perspectives, Dr. Paul sits down with holistic pediatrician and author Dr. Carissa Stanton, M.D., to explore the pressures facing modern parents and the transformative path she took from conventional pediatrics to a fully holistic approach. Drawing from her personal journey, her clinical experience, and her book Motherhood Makeover, Dr. Stanton offers grounded, practical guidance for families overwhelmed by today’s fast-paced, fear-driven culture.
A Journey Back to Holistic Wisdom
Dr. Stanton entered pediatrics determined to protect the most vulnerable—children. Although she excelled academically and practiced for 15 years in a traditional insurance-based pediatric environment, she found the system fundamentally incompatible with genuine preventative care. Her turning point came during an integrative medicine rotation in residency and later in 2020, when she opened her own direct primary care practice. Free from insurance restrictions, she now practices at the pace and depth families truly need. Exploring Autoimmunity, Diabetes, Adjuvants, and the Policies Shaping Public Health
In this episode of With the Wind: Science Revealed, Dr. Paul welcomes back integrative physician and vaccine researcher Dr. Sherri Tenpenny for a focused discussion on the rise of autoimmune disease, the increase in Type 1 diabetes in children, and the immune mechanisms involved in conditions triggered by viral infections and vaccine adjuvants.
From there, Dr. Paul and Dr. Tenpenny dive directly into the science behind autoimmune conditions, molecular mimicry, and the history of adjuvant development, leading into a discussion of her upcoming book examining the policies and decisions that shaped both the 2005 bird flu era and the recent COVID period.
Dr. Sherri Tenpenny’s Background and Approach
Throughout the conversation, Dr. Tenpenny brings the perspective of a physician experienced in integrative medicine, osteopathy, trauma care, and detailed vaccine analysis. Her ability to break down complex immunological mechanisms makes this an informative discussion for parents seeking to understand rising chronic illness trends. Exploring documented vaccine history, official records, and informed consent
In this episode of With the Wind: Science Revealed, Dr. Paul Thomas speaks with researcher and designer Shaz Khan, author of The Ultimate Vaccine Timeline. Shaz describes how the loss of her father in 2015 prompted her to begin investigating vaccine safety and the medical decisions surrounding his care. Her work ultimately led to a detailed historical reference documenting vaccine chronology, manufacturer changes, official reports, and adverse event information. Together, Dr. Paul and Shaz discuss informed consent, captured institutions, and the challenges parents face when navigating vaccine information that is often shaped by marketing language rather than objective science.
A Personal Catalyst for Research
Shaz explains that she did not come from a scientific or medical background and was not a parent when she began her vaccine research. Her investigation started after her father passed away from an aggressive lung cancer shortly after receiving a flu vaccine. Wanting to understand whether the vaccine was appropriate for someone who was immunocompromised, she began researching flu vaccine side effects and discovered references to neurological reactions that matched symptoms her father experienced. Dr. Paul and Dr. Peter McCullough Expose the Suppression, Science, and Consequences of the COVID Era
In this eye-opening episode of With the Wind: Pediatric Perspectives, Dr. Paul welcomes back renowned cardiologist and researcher Dr. Peter McCullough, M.D. to confront the truth behind what he calls “COVID corruption.” Together, they examine the deeply flawed public health response that led to widespread harm—detailing how censorship, pharmaceutical influence, and the suppression of early treatment changed the course of the pandemic and modern medicine itself.
The Road to COVID Control
Dr. McCullough traces policy and planning back to the Bioshield Act of 2003 and the PREP Act of 2005, noting how these laws laid the groundwork for today’s emergency health framework. He explains that few were paying attention until the world was already sick, but the documents, funding channels, and networks enabling a rapid vaccine rollout were years in the making.
Developing Early Treatment When Institutions Failed
At the height of the crisis, when hospitals had no outpatient guidelines, Dr. McCullough worked with leading physicians nationwide to create the first early treatment protocol for COVID-19. Published in The American Journal of Medicine, his McCullough Protocol became the journal’s most-cited paper, offering a life-saving, multi-drug approach. The Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS) later adopted it, filling a vacuum left by federal agencies that, according to McCullough, “fell down completely.” Nutrient-Dense Recipes and Prevention for Children’s Wellness
Introduction
In this Pediatric Perspectives episode of With the Wind, Dr. Paul welcomes internationally renowned chef, restaurateur, and author Pete Evans. Known for his passion for whole foods and healthy lifestyles, Pete joins the conversation to discuss his new book Healthy Food for Healthy Kids and share practical wisdom for parents seeking to nourish their children.
Dr. Paul opens by highlighting his own journey as a pediatrician who often relied on store-bought baby food. Reading Pete’s recipes for nutrient-dense, kid-friendly meals inspired him to reflect on the importance of preparing food that truly supports children’s growth and health.
Pete Evans explains that his approach to nutrition stems from both his career as a chef and his role as a father. Prevention, he emphasizes, is the cornerstone of his philosophy: “when people really want to make a change to their health, it’s because they’ve faced a diagnosis or a challenge. My goal has always been prevention.”
A critical look at measles, vaccines, and truth beyond fear
In this episode of With the Wind: SCIENCE Revealed, Dr. Paul Thomas welcomes back pediatrician Dr. Lawrence Palevsky for a powerful conversation on measles. Together, they explore history, natural immunity, and the fear-based messaging that dominates public health today. This discussion challenges assumptions and encourages parents to think critically about how we understand illness, vaccines, and healing.
Looking Back at Measles Before Vaccines
Dr. Palevsky recalls his own childhood experience with measles and reviews historical data. Mortality rates had already declined significantly before the measles vaccine was introduced in 1963. He emphasizes that the illness, when supported with nutrition, hydration, vitamins, and rest, was generally benign. How iodine impacts cancer, immune health, and home respiratory care
In this important episode of With the Wind, Dr. Paul sits down with integrative physician David Brownstein, M.D. to explore the critical role of iodine in human health. Together, they examine how iodine deficiency contributes to today’s rising rates of chronic illness and cancer, and how practical iodine supplementation can help families prepare for respiratory illness season.
Dr. David Brownstein has spent decades treating patients with integrative approaches that focus on root causes of disease rather than symptom suppression. In this conversation, he explains why iodine is essential for every cell in the body and particularly concentrated in glandular tissues such as the thyroid, ovaries, uterus, breast, prostate, and pancreas.
The discussion also covers the history of iodized salt — once hailed as a public health miracle in preventing goiter — but why it is insufficient to meet the body’s needs. Dr. Brownstein describes how modern farming methods, soil depletion, and environmental toxins have exacerbated iodine deficiency in the population.

The conversation covers holistic pediatric care, practical parenting strategies, and the importance of critical thinking, emotional connection, and natural approaches from preconception through the teen years.
Dr. Larry Palevsky, M.D., is a leading voice in holistic pediatrics, known for his decades of dedication to child health and advocacy for informed, natural parenting. In this conversation, Dr. Palevsky shares:
Exploring the history, impact, and ongoing importance of the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act.
On this week’s episode of With the Wind: Science Revealed, Dr. Paul sits down with Theresa Wrangham, Executive Director of the National Vaccine Information Center, to discuss the far-reaching implications of the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act. This pivotal law changed the landscape of vaccine policy, compensation, and parental rights — and its influence is still felt today.
Theresa Wrangham’s Background
Theresa brings decades of expertise to this conversation. As the Executive Director of the NVIC, she has been at the forefront of public engagement on vaccine policy, exemption laws, and informed consent. She has worked with the CDC, presented to federal advisory committees, and co-founded the Autism Society for Boulder County. Her leadership has helped shape national discussions on vaccine safety and individual choice.
Understanding the 1986 Act
The 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act was created to address growing concerns about vaccine injuries and the lawsuits that followed. While it removed certain avenues of legal recourse, Theresa emphasizes that it was the 2011 Supreme Court decision in Bruesewitz v. Wyeth that effectively granted vaccine manufacturers a full liability shield. Why Parents Say No to Vaccines: A Conversation with Sherri Tenpenny, M.D
Unpacking the Evidence, the Risks, and the Awakening of Informed Parents
In this eye-opening episode of With the Wind, Dr. Paul sits down with Dr. Sherri Tenpenny, a leading voice in vaccine risk awareness, to explore the increasingly common question: why are more parents saying no to vaccines? Drawing on more than 25 years of research and clinical experience, Dr. Tenpenny helps us understand the shift in parental mindset and how knowledge, experience, and critical thinking are changing the landscape of pediatric care.
Awakening Through Research
Dr. Tenpenny's journey began with a simple question: are vaccines really as safe and effective as we've been told? Since then, she has become a tireless researcher and outspoken advocate for informed consent. In this conversation, she emphasizes that today's parents have access to an abundance of resources—books like VAX FACTS and Turtles All the Way Down, as well as platforms like her own Substack—that were unavailable to prior generations. Unmasking Medical Overreach and Restoring Parental Rights in Pediatric Care
In this pivotal episode of With the Wind, Dr. Paul Thomas is joined by Dr. Larry Palevsky, M.D., an integrative pediatrician and renowned advocate for informed consent. As the back-to-school season approaches, they delve into the aggressive push for vaccination mandates, revealing how financial incentives and pharmaceutical influence have reshaped pediatric policy. This candid discussion empowers parents to critically assess medical decisions and protect their children’s health amidst increasing external pressures.
Dr. Larry Palevsky has dedicated his career to challenging mainstream narratives on childhood vaccinations and advocating for parents' rights to make informed medical decisions. In this conversation, Dr. Palevsky shares his journey, from practicing conventional pediatrics to recognizing the harmful impacts of over-vaccination and systemic suppression of vaccine injury data.
Science-Based Insights for Families Seeking Autism Prevention and Recovery
In this episode of With the Wind: Pediatric Perspectives, Dr. Paul welcomes Dr. James “Neu” Neuenschwander, president of the Medical Academy of Pediatric Special Needs (MAPS), to explore the critical questions: Is autism preventable? Is it treatable? Drawing on decades of clinical experience and the latest research, Dr. Neuenschwander shares actionable guidance for families hoping to prevent, heal from, or better understand autism and related toxicities.
Dr. James Neuenschwander is a nationally recognized leader in biomedical approaches to neurodevelopmental disorders. As MAPS president, he has treated over a thousand children with autism, continually refining his approach to address the rising severity and complexity of cases seen today.
How One Holistic Doctor’s Journey Is Changing the Conversation on Childhood Viral Illness and Immunity
In this episode of With the Wind, Dr. Paul Thomas sits down with Dr. David Brownstein, a leading voice in holistic medicine, to explore integrative approaches for treating viral illnesses in children. As mainstream medicine continues to promote vaccines as the primary solution, Dr. Brownstein shares his personal journey from conventional medicine to holistic practice, the development of his clinic’s viral protocol, and the importance of supporting the body’s innate immune system. This conversation offers parents practical, evidence-based alternatives for keeping their children well during virus season—without unnecessary fear or over-reliance on pharmaceuticals.
Dr. Brownstein’s Background and Turning Point
Dr. Brownstein grew up in a conventional household, following standard medical advice and struggling with chronic asthma. After completing medical school and residency, he began practicing conventional medicine but quickly became disillusioned. “I’m not helping people, I’m just prescribing all these drugs,” he recalls. The turning point came when he witnessed his father’s remarkable recovery from heart disease using natural therapies. This experience led Dr. Brownstein to embrace holistic medicine, focusing on nutrition, supplementation, and root-cause healing. Dr. Paul and Dr. Makis Explore the Alarming Rise in Aggressive Cancers and What May Be Driving It
In this eye-opening episode of With the Wind: SCIENCE Revealed, Dr. Paul Thomas sits down with Dr. William Makis, M.D., a Canadian physician trained in nuclear medicine, radiology, and oncology, to confront one of the most unsettling trends in modern medicine: the explosion of fast-acting, aggressive cancers in the wake of COVID-19 vaccine rollouts. Together, they unpack the complex relationship between immune dysfunction, vaccine technologies, and the evolving face of cancer.
An Oncologist's Warning
Dr. Makis has observed something deeply troubling: a dramatic rise in what he calls “turbo cancers.” These are aggressive cancers that develop and spread with shocking speed, often bypassing early-stage detection and presenting as advanced, untreatable disease. Many of these cases, he notes, involve young individuals who previously had no history or genetic predisposition to cancer.
As a frontline physician in Canada, Dr. Makis was alarmed by the resistance of the medical establishment to acknowledge these cases. “In Canada, we have censorship, we have tyranny,” he states. “Doctors are not allowed to speak the truth.” His own experience includes being censored for raising concerns about the medical response to COVID-19 and the consequences of vaccine mandates.
How one physician took great personal risk to expose what’s wrong with modern medicine
In this compelling episode of With the Wind, Dr. Paul Thomas is joined by Dr. Ken Stoller, a pediatrician who has taken great personal and professional risk to speak out against the failures of allopathic medicine. Drawing on decades of experience and hard-won insights, Dr. Stoller critiques a system that manages disease with drugs while ignoring the root causes of chronic illness. His journey—and his courage—offers a sobering yet empowering message to parents and practitioners alike.
Challenging the Medical Status Quo
According to Dr. Stoller, the modern medical model no longer serves the purpose of healing. Instead, it has become what he calls a “pharmaceutical management system.” Doctors are often trained to follow protocols without question—an approach that, he argues, leaves patients increasingly sick and dependent. Good Food for Good Health
In this week’s episode of With the Wind, Dr. Paul welcomes Zen Honeycutt, founder of Moms Across America, for a deeply insightful conversation about the profound connection between food and children’s health. Drawing from her own family’s health struggles and transformation, Zen shares actionable steps parents can take to reduce toxic exposures, restore gut health, and reclaim the kitchen as a place of healing and connection.
A Biological Dentist Reveals the Hidden Dangers of Fluoride and Mercury in Pediatric Care
In this compelling episode of With the Wind, Dr. Paul is joined by Griffin Cole, DDS, NMD—an internationally respected integrative and biological dentist—who uncovers the profound risks posed by fluoride and mercury. These substances, often hidden in plain sight in our water and dental treatments, are not only outdated but demonstrably dangerous, especially for developing children.
Why vulnerable patients are paying the price for untested medical assumptions
In this vital episode of With the Wind, Dr. Paul Thomas welcomes Dr. Brian Hooker, co-author of Vax-Unvax: Let the Science Speak, to explore a question too often ignored in mainstream medicine: What are the consequences of vaccinating immunocompromised individuals? Through the lens of a tragic personal story and deeply researched data, this conversation exposes a serious flaw in current vaccine policy and practice.
