MB Comment: You’re terminated. Is this a Schwarzenegger movie? No, it’s your pediatrician’s office. Yesterday’s new study (Prevalence of Parental Concerns about Childhood Vaccines … American Journal of Preventive Medicine) confirmed that doctors kick patients out of practices for not scrupulously following the recommended vaccination schedule. Digging deeper into this issue I discovered these creepy documents on the American Academy of Pediatrics website. Check out the ‘termination of the physician-patient relationship’ and ‘Refusal to Vaccinate’ form (linked at the end of this article). The good news is it is not necessary to take your children to doctors who act like dictators. Find someone better. As a Refuser, I refuse to sign such a ridiculous form or have a doctor who requires it as my physician.

“Strategies for Pediatricians: Addressing Concerns of Vaccine-Hesitant Patients …
I. Characteristics of Vaccine-Hesitant Parents …
Studies show the some parents (and physicians) follow invalid contraindications, such as not vaccinating a child with a mild illness (i.e., low grade fever). Other characteristics include parents with alternative medical beliefs, college graduates, females, and whites.3 Parents who have had direct experience with adverse events to vaccines are also more likely to be vaccine hesitant …
IV. Strategies for Communicating with Vaccine-Hesitant Parents …
Discuss state laws for school entry and the rationale for them. Some parents disagree with mandatory immunization and resist immunization because they believe their rights as parents are being taken away. Explain that vaccines benefit individual children and communities through herd immunity …
If, after discussion about the importance of vaccination and the risks of not vaccinating, the parent refuses, the pediatrician should document the discussion and have the parent sign a waiver affirming his/her decision not to vaccinate (i.e., AAP Refusal to Vaccinate Form). If the situation becomes such that you are no longer comfortable having the parent/patient in your practice, the AAP manual, “Medical Liability for Pediatricians”, Chapter 3, offers resources for risk communication and termination of the physician-patient relationship.

First, DO NOT SIGN THAT FORM!! In some countries and US states, children are being taken away from their parents for refusing “accepted medical treatments”.
Also know that you DO NOT WANT your child seeing such an idiot for a doctor.
Children in Australia 1 in 10 have serious food allergies and it directly from injections: vaccines and vitamin K… There is residual food protein from the culture medium (food waste is used. It is only the final culture medium that is listed on the package insert) and highly refined food oils that are GRAS. (Generally recognized as safe). Pharmaceutical companies can “self-affirm” GRAS ingredients which means nothing ever gets submitted to the government and the ingredients are “protected trade secrets”. The oils can be mixed in the vaccines. Read patents on line to find out what they are putting in the vaccines! Peanut oil, soy oil, genetically engineered oils, wheat germ oil, hydrogenated oils, evening primrose oil, shellfish oil, fish oil…
Animals in the wild DO NOT HAVE FOOD ALLERGIES! It is only AFTER they are vaccinated that our pets and zoo animals are developing food allergies. Food allergies are unknown in third world countries that do not vaccinate – thus the “hygiene theory”.
Herd immunity is B.S., too.

“…vaccines benefit individual children and communities through herd immunity …”
originally, herd immunity referred to immunity acquired by a community getting and recovering from the actual disease. the pro-vaccine nuts twisted it around so that they could convince people that herd “immunity” can be achieved through high vaccination levels in communities. sorry, pro-vaccine folks…vaccine herd “immunity” is a bunch of bull and i will NOT sacrifice my child and his health for your herd. btw pro-vaxxers and vaccine-pushing bully doctors…where is your herd and your sense of community when a parent of a vaccine-injured child needs help (emotional, physical, medical, $$$$) to care for their child???
A sacred cow will not protect the herd. (Nor will a cash cow.)
