Erwin Alber was born in Switzerland, spent many years living in New Zealand before retiring in Thailand.


It was Chapter 5 about vaccination in Bette Overell's book, "Animal Research Takes Lives" (1993) which woke him up the the fact that vaccination is a fraud. 


He started the Facebook Page, Vaccination Information Network (VINE) which currently has over 117,000 likes, to educate people about the misinformation regarding vaccinations that is costing hundreds of thousands of lives.
