Susan McCreadie, MD: I Rest Easier NOT Vaccinating my Children#android#iPad#retweet

by Susan McCreadie, MD

Since finishing my pediatric training, I have come to realize that you can find evidence to support your decision to vaccinate or not to vaccinate.

When I started my pediatric practice fresh out of residency, I was a primary care physician and offered vaccinations to those families who chose to vaccinate their children. I actually gave the children the vaccines myself (I’m so glad I no longer do that – I truly disliked that part of my job!).

I was also one of the parents who chose to vaccinate my child. I did educate myself about the pros and cons of vaccines, and felt I still needed to vaccinate Kaitlin (my oldest), but selectively vaccinate and on an alternative schedule (one vaccine per month).

After the 5th  vaccine, her eczema continued to worsen. I started to have the uncomfortable feeling of having to step outside the lines of what the standard medical   community recommended, on behalf of the health of my child. I have always been a rule follower, so naturally stepping outside ‘the standard of care’ was very   uncomfortable for me…

Adults Targeted as Federal Government Prepares to Track the Unvaccinated#android#iPad#retweet

One of the pieces of Obamacare is tracking.  They have plans to track on many levels, one of which is vaccines.  It isn’t difficult to see the government dictating much of our lives if exemptions/waivers were retracted. 

If this freedom isn’t kept, then it won’t be difficult to monitor the next and the next.

Within the Obamacare administration, there are individuals with plans to monitor prescriptions next. 

Would you want to feel forced to take a prescription or lose your job.  Say it’s statins.

What if you were told, “We think your child needs such and such prescription”, and if you didn’t then your child couldn’t attend daycare or school. 

How many times are prescriptions promoted as the next best thing and then not too far down the road there is permanent health damage or death.

The Starfield revelation: medically caused death in America#retweet#android#iPad

On July 26, 2000, the US medical community received a titanic shock, when one of its most respected public-health experts, Dr. Barbara Starfield, revealed her findings on healthcare in America. Starfield was associated with the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health.

The Starfield study, “Is US health really the best in the world?”, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, came to the following conclusions:

Every year in the US there are:

* 12,000 deaths from unnecessary surgeries;

* 7,000 deaths from medication errors in hospitals;

* 20,000 deaths from other errors in hospitals;

* 80,000 deaths from infections acquired in hospitals;

* 106,000 deaths from FDA-approved correctly prescribed medicines.

The total of medically-caused deaths in the US every year is 225,000.

That’s 2.25 MILLION deaths per decade.

This makes the medical system the third leading cause of death in the US, behind heart disease and cancer.

The Starfield study is the most disturbing revelation about modern healthcare in America ever published in the mainstream.

Opinion: Why we object to mandatory vaccination measure#android#iPad#retweet

This is a dramatic sudden push for less individual freedom, especially when no epidemic is present.  New Jersey has the largest percentage of vaccine compliance than any other state, and they require more vaccines than any other state.  Interestingly, they have the highest autism rate of any other state as well.  A rush to force the remaining small percentage to vaccinate seems hasty.

 

BY LOUISE KUO HABAKUS

People do not opt out of vaccination lightly. They do so for reasons that define who they are.

NEW Jersey’s lawmakers want to make it harder for parents to opt out of vaccines. This is a very bad idea. It erodes our rights and promotes increased government intrusion into our private religious, parental and medical affairs. The bill is discriminatory, dangerous and expensive. And it won’t work.

Government shouldn’t judge whether our religious beliefs are sincere. Government shouldn’t prohibit religious beliefs from addressing issues of safety, cleanliness or bodily integrity. Government shouldn’t compel citizens to choose a religion and stick to it forever. And government shouldn’t require someone else to approve our beliefs in order to make them legitimate.

And yet, these things are precisely what Trenton wants to do…
