With the myth of vaccine safety so entrenched in our culture, most people would not suspect an injection could lead to sudden, life-altering debilitating disease. But for Alix Mayer, a former Apple manager, her life as she knew it was rewritten after a routine set of vaccinations.

To watch this Epoch Times interview with Alix Mayer, you will need to set up an account with your email address. No cost.
At 29 years old, Mayer was thriving—leading a worldwide research team at Apple, excelling in her career, and embarking on a family trip to Hong Kong and Bali. Thinking like a “responsible” traveler, she rolled up her sleeve and received six vaccines, including the Hepatitis B shot. Two weeks later, the symptoms began.
“My legs turned into noodles. They collapsed underneath me. I started weeping—something completely out of character. Then, the next night at dinner, I fell asleep. That was the beginning of what I call ‘health hell.’”
A Life Derailed
What initially seemed like extreme jet lag quickly became a chronic condition. Mayer developed 24/7 headaches, nausea, joint pain, and severe fatigue that left her 80% housebound for years. She struggled to function, pushing through her work until a shocking moment—she could no longer read.
“I’m an MBA, and I did not understand the Wall Street Journal that day. That’s when I knew something was seriously wrong.”
Despite visiting multiple doctors, no one could explain what was happening. But after 13 years of suffering and digging for answers, Mayer made the connection: her debilitating condition traced back to the vaccines she had taken before her trip.
A Fight for Medical Transparency
Alix’s story is a hero’s journey from mere survival to a life dedicated to uncovering the truth that explains the unconscionable lack of vaccine safety studies, government accountability, and medical choice in America.
“All we’re ever told is that vaccines are ‘safe and effective.’ But our agencies have refused to conduct the required safety studies since 1986—almost 40 years.”
Fueled by her personal ordeal, she co-founded California’s Children’s Health Defense Chapter, led fundraising efforts for legal battles, and now serves as the Chairman of Free Now Foundation. Her organization is the only one in California using the courts to restore parental rights over vaccine mandates in schools.
The Bigger Picture: What You Are NOT Being Told
Mayer’s stance is not “anti-vaccine” for anyone but herself. She stands firmly for informed choice.
“I am personally anti-vaccine for myself—but I support vaccine choice for everyone. Every person deserves to know the risks and benefits before making a decision.”
She emphasizes that vaccine manufacturers cannot be sued for injuries by law because Congress gave liability protections to pharmaceutical companies. Since 1986, they have produced and promoted a dizzying number of vaccines in the knowledge that they are shielded from those harmed by their products.
“If there’s no liability, there’s no incentive to ensure safety.”
COVID Lockdowns and the Encroaching Digital Prison
In this wide-ranging interview, Mayer also speaks on the COVID-19 vaccine mandates, the erosion of Constitutional rights during lockdowns, and the increasing censorship of vaccine safety information online. Mayer says vaccine passports are an invisible weaponized architecture designed to morph into the Digital ID. This should be a wake-up call to us all about the convenience and safety technology promises only to capture us all in a trap composed of digital IDs, digital currencies, social credit scores, and surveillance cameras.

Free Now Foundation is not a law firm and cannot offer individual legal advice. However, we recognize that resisting tyranny requires each of us to become better informed about the law, our legal rights, and how to use the law to respond to the illegal policies that are quickly spreading among our schools and places of employment.












We have all seen the connections of vaccines and many harmful reactions in some people , including children for decades. Every person is different and what may be fine for one person is not fine for the next. Some are allergic to components in these shots. It should be a personal choice, not a mandate, and no one should be denied an education just because they can not take a shot. It will be interesting to see what is discovered in these investigations. That is my opinion.
