Re: Hep B Shot--Need Help Wording Letter Opposing It

[Guest guest]

What state are you in? You may not want to state that you oppose it

for a medical reason, because they'll come back at you and say, fine,

then get a medical exemption, which is pretty hard to get! You may

want to write a personal exemption or religious exemption depending

upon what state you are in.

I would suggest finding the individual laws dictating vaccine

exemption in your area. I personally find using the religious

exemption in my state easier than trying to argue the medical need

to refrain from vaccines. The reason is most are so ignorant on the

subject they require a physician to approve the medical reasons.

You find out what your state's exceptions law is and follow it to the

letter. Don't do ANYTHING else. Don't add any confusion. Don't give

them any handle to harass you with. Just find out what it takes for a

legally binding exemption and do it.

Point out also that Hep B has been withdrawn in France since a court found

it probably instrumental in causing Multiple Sclerosis. I cannot confirm

this but you might want to research further that 15,000 parents are suing in

French courts on behalf of their Hep-B damaged children.

No, don't do this.

Don't do anything other than follow your state's law to the letter

regarding refusing the vaccine. Nothing else will sway them, and

anything else you say or do will give them a tool to harass you.

I went through this as well when my son was 8 yrs. old. Stupidly I gave him

the Hep. B shot, the first 2 on the advise of his pediatrician because he

would not be allowed in school without it. He had not received it earlier

because

I had homeschooled him until I was too sick to continue from my own mercury

poisoning. It was shortly after that he began having a tic and developed

hypoglycemia.

I did a lot of research and presented it to his pediatrician as I was NOT

going to give him the 3rd shot and would have pulled him out of school to

homeschool him rather than cause more injury........and I'm too sick to

homeschool......but would have done it anyway.

When my pediatrician saw my well presented case and how I tied the research

into what was happening with my son........he immediately wrote a medical

exemption and profusely apologized and said that he was not aware of the

information I presented.........mostly being from other countries.

I think MD's only read the American Journals and never peek at anything else

produced outside this country.

You can do research on the web about this vaccine and you will find that

giving this vaccine is more dangerous at school age than at infant age. This

reason alone is enough to not give this vaccine to your child.

Good luck,

Be prepared if you use a religious exemption for them request that you

provide the stated religious tenents of your faith which shows that vaccines are

not

acceptable. They will want to see something in writing in the charter of

your denomination that dates way back before you requested an exemption. They

have been known to really make it difficult to use a religious exemption and

will require proof from you that your denomination has this stated in their

tenets of faith. I don't know any denomination that does that......if anyone

does.......I would like to know what it is.

Go here, find your state, learn how to get an exemption. It is better

to use philosophical first, then religious. Use medical only if you

have a signed doctor note.

If you guys will give me a few days, I'm gonna find some Scripture

from The Holy Bible which will support our decision, from an

interpretive standpoint of protestant Christian. If I don't get it

posted, email me, with 3 kids I'm liable to forget to post!

You are generous. For the most part they don't read new material -

most MD's have the textbooks they bought in school on their shelf,

nothing new.

Some get new materials, almost invariably something like the XXXXX

clinics of North America series that is entirely 100% politically

correct and sanitized of any real information.

Very few read journals. And far fewer non-US journals.

Different kinds of doctors have different reading habits, and for

whatever reason the MD doctor community is one where reading isn't a

habit. I have no idea how this came to be.

This is not legal, altho you are right, many districts will ask for

this. But legally, all you are required to do is state the law right

back to them. For example, if the law states " vaccination is against

the tenets of the sincerely held religious beliefs " , then you write

" vaccination is against the tenets of our sincerely held religious

beliefs " .

Recently in Arkansas, the religion exemption was declared

unconstitutional because it required being a member of a *recognized*

religion. So the district cannot require you to have written tenets.

And in fact cannot require you to be a member of any type of

religion. You can be the " religion of you " and it will still be

valid.
