My Immunocompromised Daughter Is “The Kid Who Can’t Be Vaccinated”
My sweet E was born healthy 16 years ago following an uncomplicated pregnancy. She had great Apgars and was amazing at breastfeeding right from the start. At E’s two-week check-up, I questioned the pediatrician on the necessity of the hepatitis B vaccine, which I had declined in the hospital due to “extreme” intuition.

The Global Polio Eradication Initiative has slated 2018 as the…
JAMA Study Highlights Vaccination Risks in Low Birth Weight Infants
A new study published in Journal of the American Medical Association Pediatrics (JAMA) provides evidence that extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants run a higher risk of suffering from adverse events such as fever, breathing problems (apnea), abnormally slow heart rates (bradycardia), and fever soon after being vaccinated. An even more serious and potentially deadly complication detected was sepsis, which is an overwhelming immune…

Unless it is reversed, the decree purports to require that all 7th grade students, generally about 11-years old, be vaccinated against a sexually transmitted disease (STD) prior to starting school in September.
