School Vaccination Exemptions

LOL so where are your stats? all I see is you stating stuff and not even bothering to give some real numbers. You just say well its because of sanitation while you have no proof for that and just state it.

So why when the global effort to eradicate Polio began in 1988 with vaccinations all over the world did the number of annual diagnosed cases get reduced by 99%; from an estimated 350,000 cases in 1988 to a low of 483 cases in 2001?
(Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) (2006))

Just a big coincidence?

And why did they experiment in China with variolation in the 10th century, the same method we use today with small pox, with good results like 0.5–2% mortality rate with people who had variolation, considerably less than the 20–30% mortality rate of the disease itself.

(Washington DC: Public Health Foundation. pp. 281–306.)

That doesn't correlate with your sanitation theory now does it?

Now you are right that sanitation did a LOT to prevent diseases but so did vaccinations.

Don't Vaccinate Before You Educate!

Don't Vaccinate Before You Educate! is a result of Dr. Eisenstein's lectures on vaccinations. Dr. Eisenstein brings his knowledge as a physician, public health doctor and attorney to help educate you on this very important subject. Dr. Eisenstein presents scientific literature both pro and con vaccine. He comes to the conclusion that scientific studies alone will not be enough to decide the benefit vs. the risks of vaccine programs. Therefore, he concludes that personal religious convictions, not scientific studies, are the main reasons, upon which to base your vaccination decision. Unlike most other physicians, he feels parents have a right to be involved in the final decision about vaccinating their children. He discusses vaccine law, religious exemptions with a heavy emphasis on the Illinois law. Don't Vaccinate Before You Educate! will be the beginning of a path to educate families with regard to childhood vaccines.

Excerpts

This book is not meant to convince you to vaccinate or not vaccinate your children but to open your eyes to the ongoing debate.

Education as defined by Webster's College Dictionary:

To impart knowledge to; provide with information; to educate consumers

To educate means to widen one's horizons. I hope that this book will be educational with regard to the vaccine issues and inspire you to become more educated with regard to the risk vs. benefits of vaccine programs.

I have included just a few of the many pro and con scientific vaccine studies. Many more can be obtained by going on the internet to the multiple vaccine sites as well as to the on-line versions of some of the most prestigious medical journals (BMJ, AMA, Pediatrics, Lancet, Journal of Disease of Children).

I hope this book leads you to do more research as well as think about your religious and spiritual convictions. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to serve so many families. God bless.




Making An Informed Vaccine Decision
Dr. Eisenstein's newest book is now available:
The current schedule of recommended vaccines is so crowded that doctors give babies several shots during a single office visit -- up to eight vaccines all at one time. Parents -- and doctors -- often forget that vaccines are drugs. How often do we, as adults, take that many drugs at the same time? Would we be more surprised if we did or did not have an adverse reaction?
Dr. Mayer Eisenstein has practiced medicine, delivered babies, and provided families with preventive healthcare services for over 35 years. This honest guide to childhood shots was written especially for concerned parents. With Dr. Eisenstein's help, it is now possible to make informed vaccine decisions.
In this book you will learn...
* The prevalence and seriousness of each disease, including who is most at risk.
* How each vaccine is made, with a complete list of ingredients.
* Side effects of each vaccine, with a summary of significant studies.
* Precautions parents can take to protect their children.
* Includes Mercury in Vaccines: A Link to Autism
and more.............

We need more Docs like you that see thru all the BS.

These people against vaccinations are mad psychopaths that are supporters to the deaths and disability of thousands of Children and Adults..

Serial Killer level times .......

You get the idea.

Of course they can get into public schools. It is called religious exemptions. States have other exemptions as well.

You really are showing your ignorance. Really.

Now you are dissing homeschooling. I think I will ignore your posts from now on because you really are one negative idiot. And I am still laughing at the bubonic plague reference you brought up. What a moran.LOL

from the amish i see all the time, it seems like the rate of genetic issues is quite low. the people with issues are not hidden. i have shaken hands with a young man with slight genetic abnomalities at a amish store. he was a gentle soul. he's in good hands.

please don't blindly vaccinate. multiple shots enhance chances of severe illness.

And I don't even know if I had a smallpox vaccination. I grew up in the 60's, so maybe so. It was well known then that smallpox was bad news, whereas measles, mumps and chicken pox were normal childhood diseases that everyone (more or less) went through.

Mumps parties for girls. Because it's OK when you're a girl but bad news for the fetus if you get it later when you're carrying a baby.

But it's just distraction to say one should vaccinate for low-risk illnesses because there happens to be another much worse one that could be an issue -- even though it's not. Yes there are things that can cause lots of death. But the things we're now vaccinating for mostly are not worth the risks of the shot.

I would love to see you nonvaccinated people put your money where your mouth is. Put me and you in a room with a person with polio and see who dies first LOL.

They are nuts, lets ship them off to a Third world country, see how they fare then..

This is also in response to you Mad Max/haters comment. You obviously have some very serious issues. Just because there are some of us here are very educated on this topic and chose the safest route for our children, does NOT mean we are distrustful of medicine in general. I did not choose to homebirth. I love how you make sweeping assumptions about the kind of people we are. I guess I can assume then that you are a big sheeple that can't think for yourself, and if the government told you to jump off a cliff you probably would, and you are probably already on at least a handful of "life saving" prescription drugs, you are the kind of narrow minded fool who actually think unvaccinated kids are disease carriers, and yet for all your touting of vaccines, you obviously fear they don't work, otherwise why would you worry about your kids going to school with unvaccinated kids? Don't start with the herd immunity B.S. either, the only herd immunity is the one you sheeple have towards the truth.

Fact is, a lot of people used to die of horrible diseases. No one is denying that. Women used to also die in childbirth because doctors didn't believe they needed to wash their hands before deliveries. Sanitation improvements disappeared a lot of diseases, NOT vaccines. Also, many disease simply disappear on their own, also a FACT. This happened with the bubonic plague, as one example. All the info is out there and it is very well-supported. Fact is, VACCINES KILL AND DISABLE. You have yet to address this fact whatsoever.

There are so many diseases that wiped out people, I honestly cant keep track

Why do you think our Population finaly reached 6.6 billion??? Its cause of Vaccinations, medical technology and Government laws and regulations, MORAN.

Long ago the death rate used to near match the birth rate, We're doing too good now

You dont want to see the other side, trust me.

Stats?

What about all these people, one after another, who say they observe a cause-and-effect relationship between vaccination and chronic problems such as autism. These include people with mathematical and scientific training.

There's also evidence that we have good reason to be suspicious of the way "official" data is collected, analyzed and reported. They're lying. I don't trust their stats, and it's perfectly "scientific" to say that, given the support that exists.

But none of this is the right reason for avoiding vaccination, because that reason is religious objection.

You're hopeless. Good gawd.

Women would die mostly from blood loss in Child birth and the child being breech etc, Its why C sections are performed today. (not from lack of handwashing,(although extremely important in surgery etc)
Our penis has never had to be sanitized and its gone into women for thousands of years. lol ! )

I think this sanitation stories of people dumping sewage in the street might be bunk.

I mean, the Jews had rules on sanitation and hand washing. So theres a plus on Jewish Wisdom

This is not my line of expertise, going over stats and documents, but for you , I will

Im more of a historian and know that thousands of people dropped dead daily as pioneers and farmers and our Medical tech has done wonders all around.

I want you to address polio though and if you think thats a cool thing to catch or not. lol..

LOL, Well NASA even knows the destroyer is en route, good luck with that while Im in my bunker.

How do you know I don't have a bunker? You know nothing about me. As for polio, I will be happy to address that but I have a meeting to go to right now. LOTS of myths about polio as well, and yes, it was also well on the decline before the advent of the vaccine.

you mean grave?

my condolences to you ahead of time.

maybe you really need to learn what it means to get stoned, eh?

Yes, Id like to hear more about your polio theories, And what kind of bunker you have? Personal or with another association or Gov?

Eager for you to get back. See you soon.

Luxury bunker. Self sustaining for a decade. =)

And I am Stoned, Philosophers Stone is the name of my blog and website.

Any dumb fawking doctor who forces a needle in my children's skin will be the last needle he holds. I put that on my ancestor graves who are sick of their children's souls being stolen or poisoned by this bullshit!!!!!!!!!!!

I have found that doctors are about the most ignorant and unthinking human beings on the planet and who will do and believe whatever their superiors or medical text books tell them.

It sure seems like it. People mainly got wiped out because of lack of sanitation. That is a fact. When basic sanitation goes no vaccine will save a person. Indoor plumbing, soap and water, diet, getting rid of pests(bubonic plague)etc and not vaccines is what saved people. Vaccines do have their place I will say but they are not the end all and did not eradicate all disease. They are causing more problems than they are supposedly fixing these days. Vaccinating people like cattle and with too many vaxes is hurting people. Not helping them.

BTW, interesting link between polio and pesticides. Not saying I believe it but again it is interesting.

True. But some are waking up. You just have to keep looking for them.

After the anti-vaccination controversy began, the MMR vaccination compliance dropped sharply in the United Kingdom, from 92% in 1996 to 84% in 2002. In some parts of London, it was as low as 61% in 2003, far below the rate needed to avoid an epidemic of measles. By 2006 coverage for MMR in the UK at 24 months was 85%, lower than the about 94% coverage for other vaccines.

After vaccination rates dropped, the incidence of two of the three diseases increased greatly in the UK. In 1998 there were 56 confirmed cases of measles in the UK; in 2006 there were 449 in the first five months of the year, with the first death since 1992; cases occurred in inadequately vaccinated children. Mumps cases began rising in 1999 after years of very few cases, and by 2005 the United Kingdom was in a mumps epidemic with almost 5000 notifications in the first month of 2005 alone. The age group affected was too old to have received the routine MMR immunisations around the time the paper by Wakefield et al. was published, and too young to have contracted natural mumps as a child, and thus to achieve a herd immunity effect. With the decline in mumps that followed the introduction of the MMR vaccine, these individuals had not been exposed to the disease, but still had no immunity, either natural or vaccine induced. Therefore, as immunisation rates declined following the controversy and the disease re-emerged, they were susceptible to infection. Measles and mumps cases continued in 2006, at incidence rates 13 and 37 times greater than respective 1998 levels. Two children were severely and permanently injured by measles encephalitis despite undergoing kidney transplantation in London.

Disease outbreaks also caused casualties in nearby countries. Three deaths and 1,500 cases were reported in the Irish outbreak of 2000, which occurred as a direct result of decreased vaccination rates following the MMR scare.

In 2008, for the first time in 14 years, measles was declared endemic in the UK, meaning that the disease was sustained within the population; this was caused by the preceding decade's low MMR vaccination rates, which created a population of susceptible children who could spread the disease. MMR vaccination rates for English children were unchanged in 2007–08 from the year before, at too low a level to prevent serious measles outbreaks.[126] In May 2008, a British 17-year-old with an underlying immunodeficiency died of measles. In 2008 Europe also faced a measles epidemic, including large outbreaks in Austria, Italy, and Switzerland.

Following the January 2011 BMJ revelations of fraud by Wakefield, Paul Offit, a pediatrician at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and a "long-time critic of the dangers of the anti-vaccine movement", said, "that paper killed children", and Michael Smith of the University of Louisville, an "infectious diseases expert who has studied the autism controversy's effect on immunization rates", who said "clearly, the results of this (Wakefield) study have had repercussions.

It seems to be human nature to be afraid of making our own decisions, and we seek the opinion's of "Professionals". However, who's ultimately responsible when the advise you rely on is flawed or incorrect? Educate and think for yourself and make more informed decisions on the risks and benefits. I recommend the following:

don't know if this has been mentioned, but you know that the plague was not in any way 'eradicated' with vaccines. so that is a poor example. all the graphs i have seen, besides measles, has shown the diseases were in sharp or steady decline before they even introduced the vaccines. i mean, did they kill swine flu (H1N1) with a vaccine?

anyways...diseases natural course are to rise and decline in a society.....there are still some diseases today that are just more common in places that are less developed and have poor living conditions.

and you are happy to see kids not have to endure chicken pox? just wait until adult chicken pox becomes common place and THEY die from it. vaccines wear off.

its not crazy not to vaccinate. just as its not crazy to vaccinate...they both have risks and for some kids the risk doesn't happen to be worth it. my kid reacted to vaccines...many kids do to varying degrees.
i just hate when people are so ignorant and judgmental that they think parents who make informed decisions (that may not jive with their own narrow minded opinions) are 'crazy' or even bordering on child abuse. kids die from vaccines, probably more kids are injured vaccines than suffer from these vaccine preventable diseases. majority of kids in america that get measles are fully vaccinated.

5*

Thanks for the arsenal of information!

You're wrong. Modern sanitation by far was number 1 for dramatic drop in common diseases. Vaccines are a distant 2nd due to underlying problem... widespread vitamin D deficiency. I only believe vaccines for serious ones but not for common ones that are easy to recover from or even prevent by simply making sure you get enough vitamin D. It is disturbing that 97% of USA is not getting enough vitamin D to keep immune system strong. That's exactly why we had to develop flu vaccines which may or may not even work. Take enough vitamin D and the risk of getting MOST IF NOT ALL strains of flu, cold, and others are greatly reduced. Can you say the same thing about flu vaccines that only cover a few strains? What about cold? Do we even have vaccine for cold? Nope. We'd all be much better off with making sure we get enough vitamin D and cut down numbers of vaccines.

[link to homefirst.com] And the doctor doesn't give vaccines and autism rate is much lower. He is a big believer in vitamin D. Obviously, his method works well. Perhaps, you don't really know shit about nutrition and immune system.

Fun Facts

During the first 3 years of a childs life, the brain can grow 60-80% of adult size..
If you ask me that is some tremendous and important growth occuring during these stages...

Our blood system is equipped with a few filters to help keep our bodys filtered and clean..
The brain has its very own special filter, the blood brain barrier...
The blood brain barrier is NOT fully developed until after 6 months of age..

And the medical community wants to give these babys loaded doses of chemicals, virus, additives and whatever else,
during the most important stages of development for the brain, central nervous system and blood brain barrier...
How stupid are we??????????????

The immune system is also not fully developed and you think 4 shots at one time during four months of age is OK..
With all the combination of many FOREIGN ingrediants flooding the babys system from all seperate shots,
these ingrediants will have open range throughout the body and brain..
This is when problems occur, starting with fevers, bodys natural defense..
but some systems are to weak to handle and more problems arise...
sadly attacking the immature brain and central nervous system....

My first son is paying the price daily, my second son will not get any shots..

That is not true of all doctors. I know one that will give the straight story. Due to potential law suits, she doesn't push it with her patients, but she doesn't think vaccinations are safe or effective. Her own child hasn't been vaccinated for years. If you want the straight scoop from a doctor, you have to let them know how you feel, then ask their opinion of the vaccinations. They have too much liability to try and convert eveyone that goes through their office.
