November 1, 2022:
On November 1st, the Virginia Chapter led a peaceful protest at the John A Wilson Building in Washington, DC where we respectfully asked the DC Council to end its COVID-19 vaccine mandate for school kids. The Council voted to postpone enforcement of the requirement until the 2023/2024 school year.
October 1, 2022:
The Virginia Chapter of Children’s Health Defense is proud to support the efforts of the Virginia Medical Freedom Alliance (VAMFA), a non-profit, non-partisan coalition of Virginia healthcare professionals, organizations and citizens, in their efforts to bring reform to Virginia’s approach to COVID-19 patient treatment. VAMFA and CHD Virginia Chapter are concerned and alarmed by the Commonwealth of Virginia’s response to COVID-19, which led to the unnecessary death and suffering of thousands of Virginians after they were denied life-saving, early treatment. VAMFA organized a free, open, uncensored scientific public dialogue entitled “Virginia’s COVID Management: A Public Forum,” which took place on October 1st. Please click here to listen to replay of this important event that featured experts Dr. Robert Malone and Dr. Paul Marik. VAMFA had asked the Governor and the Virginia Department of Health (VDH) to come to the table to hear the firsthand accounts of doctors who successfully treated COVID-19 patients using “alternative” treatments – treatments that the VDH refuses to acknowledge have merits but neither attended.
February 14, 2022: Don’t Break Our Hearts Rally – FDA Headquarters – Silver Spring, MD
The Virginia Chapter put out a call for volunteers to attend a rally at the U.S. Food and Drug (FDA) Headquarters in Silver Spring, MD in response to a pending decision by the FDA to authorize the COVID-19 vaccine for babies and children up to 4 years of age. Although the meeting was postponed, volunteers still showed up on February 14 and urged them to vote no and where they handed out flyers and took a photo in front of the large FDA sign with our new “Don’t Break Our Hearts” banner. On February 15, supporters showed up for a photo op in front of the White House. Special thanks to Alexis Baden-Mayer, Political Director of the Organic Consumers Association, who led these efforts.
January 23 , 2022: Defeat the Mandates March, Washington, DC
On January 23, more than 30,000 people marched from the Washington Monument to the Lincoln Memorial to peacefully protest vaccine mandates, government overreach and censorship. Children’s Health Defense joined organizations and individuals from around the country to protest all government mandates and celebrate the principles of freedom and liberty upon which our nation was founded. Virginia Chapter president, Kathy Blum, coordinated over 50 route marshal volunteers, and chapter members assisted with the march. Participants consisted of people from all walks of life regardless of political affiliation, race, ideology or vaccination status.

November 2, 2021: Real Not Rare Event, U.S. Supreme Court, Washington, DC
The Real Not Rare organization held a rally at the U.S. Supreme Court to bring awareness to the very real dangers of the COVID-19 shot. The vaccine injured told of their incredible stories of getting the shot and suffering life-altering and life-threatening reactions. They came from all over the country to have their voices heard. Many where in wheelchairs because of their injuries and others needed physical assistance. Prior to the rally, the vaccine injured testified at Senator Ron Johnson’s panel discussion about their injuries, the lack of appropriate medical care, and the denial of the pharmaceutical companies to take responsibility. The Virginia Chapter provided support and transport of the vaccine injured and continues to support their efforts.
June 23, 2021: Anacostia Event, Washington, DC
On June 23, Virginia medical freedom advocates joined Children’s Health Defense supporters across the country to protest at several venues where children as young as 12 could be vaccinated without the consent of their parents. The Virginia Chapter gathered at the R.I.S.E. Demonstration Center where we distributed information on the dangers of the COVID-19 vaccine and how DC allows children as young as 12 to be vaccinated without their parents’ consent or knowledge.
