Michael Palmer's FATAL on NYT bestseller list
Barbara Loe Fisher on the just-released vaccine thriller
Dear NVIC Friends,
Michael Palmer's vaccine thriller FATAL, made it to the New
York Times best seller list (No. 16) after only four days on the
bookstore shelves -but we need your help to keep it on the best
seller lists and move it up! All books, especially novels, have
a short lifespan and depend on word-of-mouth advertising to stay
on the shelves. That means it is up to us to tell everyone we
know how important it is to read this first-time ever expose in
a novel of the dangers in the mass vaccination system. Michael
Palmer truly has given us a gift and we need to do what we can
to educate as many people as we can about vaccine risks while
the book is still available.
Dr. Palmer joined me in addressing 1,000 parents of autistic
children attending the Defeat Autism Now (DAN!) conference in
Boston last week and afterwards signed 200 books in just two
hours before he had to leave to pick up his 11 year old son, who
has Asperger's Syndrome, at school. In the past two weeks, we
have been getting a lot of emails at NVIC from people who are
telling us that when they start reading the book they
"can't put it down." Here is a sample of what is being
said about FATAL:
"Michael Palmer is a sure shot (no pun intended) to
have his tenth New York Times best seller with the
action-packed FATAL. The story line never slows down from the
opening sore throat to the final climax. Mr. Palmer provides a
penetrating spotlight on America's vaccination program and to
a lesser degree on the environmental unsafe at any speed
record" - Harriet Klausner, Amazon.com reviewer
"I couldn't put FATAL down-finished the book at 3 a.m.
Stayed home this a.m. to catch up on sleep. A friend at work
said she couldn't put it down. I was amazed from the very
beginning on how much real information is in the book. I'm so
grateful to Michael Palmer." - A Texas mother of a
vaccine injured child
"Medical thrillers, like other thrillers, are intended
as entertainment, but if well-researched, they can do a lot
more than just give readers delicious shivers. By exploring
and dramatizing important issues in medicine, they can
enlighten the public and enable them to think intelligently
about what is vital to them. Michael Palmer a physician and
best selling author, excels in turning out just such medical
thrillers in his latest novel, FATAL, Palmer tries to raise
public consciousness about a super vaccine....anyone who reads
this book will be fully versed in the subject of immunization
safety." Waka Tsunoda, Associated Press
"I just finished FATAL by Michael Palmer and it has
more twists and turns than the windiest of mountain roads. It
was my Mother's Day present to myself. I encourage everyone to
read it and buy as many copies as you can and to give as many
copies as you can to your libraries and friends...this book is
a gift and we need to recognize its profound potential to
impact the public's blind assumptions about vaccine safety and
do what we can to promote it." - Sandy Mintz, an Alaska
vaccine safety and informed consent advocate
"This is a well-written, fast-paced, action-packed
thriller. I kept seeing it as a screenplay in my mind's eye!
But the most important issue that is tackled in this book -
the potential harmful effects that vaccines have on our health
- is the real message behind the plot.Palmer has chosen to use
his incredible fiction-writing talents to open the door of
this controversial issue to the masses.. the book makes a
profound statement about the potential for vaccine injury when
safety is abandoned due to the self-interests of a few."
- Sherri Tenpenny, D.O., public review for Amazon.com
"FATAL was absolutely remarkable. And it was fun to
read in the process. A lot of education will be done through
this book. They will never be able to put the genie back in
the bottle. What a gift Palmer has given us all!" -Dawn
Richardson, President, Parents Requesting Open Vaccine
Education (PROVE)
Call your local bookstores and make sure they have it on the
shelves and if they don't - tell them to order it. After you
read FATAL, you can write your own reviews and submit them to
Amazon.com and barnesandnoble.com. You can also contact your
local newspapers and radio stations and ask them to review the
book or suggest they interview Dr. Palmer on a local talk show.
Grassroots education about vaccine safety starts at the local
level.
Those of you who have been followers of NVIC's work over the
past 20 years will see, thinly disguised, a vaccine safety and
informed consent organization led by Moms who help the good guys
get the bad guys...don't be surprised if you find yourself
wanting to cheer at the end. Not many times we get a chance to
feel like cheering!
Treat yourself to something you don't want to miss - an
important book that will earn its place in the history of the
reform of the mass vaccination system as surely as the
non-fiction ones that have gone before it. To learn more about
why Michael Palmer wrote FATAL, read the interview I did with
him in March on NVIC's website: www.909shot.com. And don't
forget to plan to come to NVIC's Third International Public
Conference on Vaccination held Nov. 7-9, 2002 in Arlington,
Virginia where Michael will be a featured dinner speaker.
Happy reading!
My best,
Barbara Loe Fisher
