Exemptions

Each week I spend hours answering emails on how to avoid vaccinations for kids entering school, for kids going to day care & how to handle doctors that insist that a patient be vaccinated or they will no longer accept them into their practice.

Having been thru this myself twice over & doing much research, I've decided to put this info into a blog so that others will have the info at their fingertips.

This link will lead you to the right paperwork for your state. Many states have philosophical exemptions, religious or just medical exemptions. Medical exemptions can be over ruled by another doctor with a simple exam. Philosophical exemptions can be over ruled by our government at a drop of a hat. Religious exemptions are the way to go since Freedom of Religion is guaranteed by a document called the Constitution of the United States. You will need to fill out this paperwork in front of a Notary Public. They'll check your ID & then sign where they need to. Present this paperwork to your daycare center. They will need to keep a copy on their record even after your child has left their care so you will need another copy for when your child starts school.

Currently, New Jersey is trying to pass legislation that will outlaw religious exemptions. If you live in that state, please write your lawmakers & tell them to keep your Freedom of Religion in place. Below is a link to a slideshow that I did last fall in Illinois. About 1/3 of the way thru it talks about What Does the bible say about vaccines? Feel free to use that info to back up your claims about it being against your religion to get vaccines. You do NOT have to be part of a church that believes vaccines are wrong. You can have a personal religious belief that vaccines are against scripture.

This next link shows a map of the U.S. & which states allow what exemptions. The worst states to live in for this purpose are West Virginia & Mississippi. Mississippi doesn't allow for religious exemptions as they think its against the constitution to have a religious exemption. (I still don't understand that one)

I'm sure many of you are now wondering, what doctors in the U.S. will go along with not vaccinating or maybe an alternative schedule. They are out there! The link below shows which doctors are the ones to go with for this purpose. You could also seek care from a homeopath, naturalpath, chiropracter & an Osteopath. The whole purpose of well baby or well child visits is for vaccinations! You don't have to have a pediatrician for your child.
