About Inform Me
Inform Me is a series of podcasts and online resource dedicated to unpacking the Australian Childhood Immunisation Schedule. Our program begins with general topics to give an overview and background on the formation of the schedule, before meticulously dissecting each vaccine over the period of a fortnight, to equip our audience with comprehensive knowledge on every dose.
Informative Framework
Before diving into specific vaccines, we set the stage by addressing overarching themes and background information. Our aim is to provide a contextual understanding of the Childhood Immunisation Schedule. Through expert analysis and accessible discourse, we demystify complex concepts, empowering our audience to navigate the intricate landscape of vaccination.
In-Depth Exploration
Each vaccine is meticulously examined over a fortnight, allowing ample time for thorough discussion and exploration. From mechanism of action to efficacy and safety profiles, no aspect is left unexplored. Moreover, we arm our audience with a plethora of tools and resources, facilitating a deeper understanding and informed decision-making regarding vaccination.

ABOUT PETER HARRIS
Harris Family Story
“You will have this for life, there is no cure for what you have, and your best solution is to try and live healthy and when it gets out of control (you guessed it) use your steroid cream to help stabilise it.”
From a young age, my son suffered from severe eczema, enduring countless nights of pain and discomfort. Despite seeing numerous doctors and specialists, trying various treatments, and making lifestyle changes, nothing provided lasting relief.
We went from doctor to doctor, then specialist to specialist trying to find solutions. Soaking in baths, changing diet, seeking different medications, asking naturopaths; it went on and on. Nothing worked for him, he would constantly have eczema and at times it would flare up to where we would need further medical intervention.
Hoping for a breakthrough, we visited a highly recommended specialist, only to be told there was no known cure for eczema:
This news was devastating, leaving us feeling hopeless and disillusioned with the medical system.
I remember thinking “Why would you go through all of that training to become a specialist to simply leave people with no hope.” I was not just disappointed, I was angry that we wasted our time, and worse, that I led my son into something that left him with no hope and in a worse mental state than before we walked into the appointment.
Years passed, and my son’s battle with eczema continued, affecting every aspect of his life. At 19, another blow struck when he was diagnosed with cataracts in both eyes, a rare condition for someone so young. The specialist, stunned by the severity, couldn’t explain how this had happened.
We arranged for my son to get his cataracts removed and paid for it to happen privately as he was facing up to a 2 year wait to get on the public waiting list. That was not something that I was prepared to let happen to my son.
The turning point came when we stumbled upon the inserts of vaccines, where eczema was listed as a potential side effect. This revelation was a shock, especially after being told by countless specialists that there was no known cause. Further digging uncovered that the steroid creams, the very treatment meant to help, were linked to cataracts in young people. The pieces of the puzzle finally started to fit together.
In fact, the only ones who have benefitted from his circumstances are doctors and pharmaceutical groups, they have made thousands and thousands out of him. It’s as if they track him as an individual profit unit, and why wouldn’t they? No one holds them to account, and they sell over $1 trillion of prescribed drugs annually and a further $60 billion annually vaccines.
For years, my son has endured immense physical and emotional pain, while the medical industry profited without providing real answers. It cost us tens of thousands of dollars and untold heartache.
Our mission at Inform Me is born from this journey. We are dedicated to uncovering and sharing the truth about health, empowering others to make informed decisions. We challenge the status quo, advocate for transparency, and offer support and hope to those navigating their health journeys.
