School are not permitted to vaccinate your child without your permission

[Guest guest]

Yes they would... And " yes " they should... They are not allowed to

administer any medication or vaccines to your child without your consent.

They are not even allowed to do a TB test without your consent.. They may

try to do it anyway, therefore, you must make your child aware that she/he

should not allow the school nurse of the other children or the teacher to

administer any medication or injections unless they speak with your first..

Any outbreak of any communicable disease at any institution must be made

known to all who are at that institution. There may be people on steroids

and chemotherapy that have been warned to stay away from any communicable

diseases by their physicians. Therefore all schools must notify you of the

disease and your choice to either give an antibiotic or a vaccine or to just

keep your child home for the duration of the epidemic.

When my son recently acquired the MUMPS from the other children who were

revaccinated with their second MMR in April. I told the school and the

health department about it.. They just " poo pooed " me saying that they had

not had anyone else who had been reported the MUMPS. My son asked a few of

his friends who have been vaccinated about their reactions to the injection

and they all had some form of swollen glands and sore throats that

definitely sounded like the MUMPS to me.. My son was examed by our

Chiropractor who is also our physician. He had not had MUMPS as a child

and contracted it from my son and gave it to several of his patients. None

of these folks were diagnosed with MUMPS even though the symptoms were

present. They were either taking so over the counter allopathic medication

or got an antibiotic from their physicians. None of the MD's diagnosed the

MUMPS.. They don't even know it when they see it... Luckly MUMPS is a very

inocuous disease and there are little if no, complications.
