Who's requiring you to get immunizations?

I believe the warnings on immunizations warn the doctor against using them on immune-compromised patients (he won't take the time to read it or properly warn you, so investigate it yourself). You don't think your immune system is compromised? I would be surprised if a doctor would even be willing to immunize you with Lyme, because he could be held liable if you have a bad reaction.

I went to Brazil a few weeks ago.
They suggested several types of shots.
I spoke with my LLMD.

He said tetanus is not good for us with LD.

I opted to NOT get any shots. I just watched what I ate and ONLY drank and washed teeth with bottled water.

I decided no shots.

Worked out ok.

I watched the food and only bottle water.
Brush teeth with bottled water.

I don't have the references handy..but if you Google you will find..

They are God-awful for anyone's immune system and there has never been any proof that they work! ...there are ways to get your kids out of them for schools or other travel, ect. requirements.

Noone tells you there are ways to exempt, they just tell you you MUST have them.
Check the web and I'll pst if I find my documents.

Don't get any more and I hope you feel better soon and enjoy your trip.

You should have a Malaria treatment on hand, such as Riamet, which I believe should be available to travelors to self administer should you come down with Malaria. I also am pretty sure you can get it over the counter in Africa but you should check that.

best,

My LLMD said tetanus said is OK to have, however, my gut feeling is I should not have it, or any other more shots.

He only has 2 bands of lyme--may wait and see what Dr. J says about his brother...

In any state you can get a philosophical exemption, or a religious one.

The religious one simply required stating you are of the belief pf a certain religion that does not allow vaccination ..
you do not have to be practicing that religion.
You'll get flack but if you know your rights you can very calmly become exempt. They cannot force you or keep kids out of school (as they say) if you follow the basic steps and submit letters as per the law.

Check your laws first. I believe this site also has an option to buy a leaflet for a few bucks with your state regs and a form.

Great Book, 'Vaccines, are they really safe and effective?' -- full of citations for supportive documentation, is also I think available through this site.

You can also find a page on Mercola website, lots of other google refs..
and look at the statement before congress by Dr. William Howard Hay on the small pox vaccine.

This has never been scientifically proven to work!! Any form of vaccination! And we have not been informed of the dangers.

Docs are just going by what they have been taught, schools threaten because that's what they have been programmed to do.

I must say even the wonderful Doc J (who's word on TBD's I will never doubt)..
is of an old school mindset on vaccinations.
He doesn't think they are horrible, but at the same time I bet he may agree if you are concerned about immune health (noone with depresed immunity should ever take vaccine and that is universally acknowledged)
but a note from a Doc along this line would only be temporary.
IMO, if you get educated and know you want out, go for the exemption as per state law rather than a Docs note.

This is really a subject that is specialized and you have to research for yourself. IMO, with all the risks and documentation, and even as a layperson just looking over the science..
this is another medical debacle.

*sigh*

Vaccines are dangerous and can harm the immune system, cause autism in children, and do not protect you from disease.
Mercury and the infectious agents unnaturally injected directly into the blood stream (bi-passing many immune system check points) are just two of the concerns.
