Re: WIC Program and Vaccinations

[Guest guest]

Wic usually issues vaccines to children, for free and gives you some

food, not much and also checks for Iron levels in children. It was

started to make sure that small children, below school age got a

proper diet, especially iron, because there are supposedly lots of low

income children who are low on iron, they also give free vaccinations

and usually tell people it is a requirement.

Hope this helps.

Go in Peace,

Judy

Does anybody have more indepth information on this--such as if benefits will be terminated if one is not vaccinated... or who has access to these records.

Thank you.

I've read fairly convincing claims that the iron deficiency notion wasn't real and that iron supplements conflict with metal detox procedures. I find that more believable, insasmuch as the iron deficiency propoganda comes from the same source as vaccs-prevent-disease ideas.
