At this website, while searching for mycoplasma info, I found that the Professor refers to studies which showed about 6% of vaccines were contaminated with mycoplasmas. He says in a healthy individual this is not a real threat, but that in those already sick the integration of mycoplasma can cause more problems. The info is at www.immed.org/FAQ.HTM.
If you're sitting on the fence regarding any vaccinations, this should give you more food for thought.

Did I see aspartame in one of these vaccines?? Thanks for posting the list of ingredients. How is it that California can prohibit thimerosal in vaccines and the rest of the country must take chances with the known adverse effects? ALL PEOPLE SHOULD BE ABLE TO DEMAND MERCURY/THIMEROSAL FREE VACCINES!
Surely the mfg's aren't going to broadcast mycoplasma contamination. I can't get the link to work from here, but got in right away when I was off the lymenet. The link posted is correct for the Q & A I was looking at this morning. Maybe the http://www.immed.org/FAQ.HTM is needed?

Universities can be pretty strict but I'm surprised that yours is requiring the Hep B vaccine to ALL students. You probably could get an exemption.
In my case, I did a HIV/AIDS related study abroad in Kenya and Tanzania in 2001... If I wanted to go I had to submit. So I did.
Was vaccinated for Hep A and B and Typhoid and updated Tetanus-diptheria and MMR.
Don't recall FEELING any adverse health effects and I didn't get anything in Africa. There was an incident at an AIDS orphanage where I feared I may have contracted HIV but was tested when I came home and was okay. Phew.
Good luck!

From what I can gather, different states have different rules, but in some states you can be exempt for "medical" reasons, but in all (?) states you can be exempt for religious reasons.
Hope it helps.

Depending on what state you live in, you can get either a religous or philosophical exemption..
philosiphical is easiest.. but religious, if you read and know the particular law.. can usually be interpreted to apply to almost any religion. Much of the Bible I see as a health book, actually.. talks allot about 'impurities' and 'natural health'.
You can also get a medical expemption from your Doc, but that is finite, and I would think it would be more difficult to change that later when the next year or 'requirement' comes up.
Mercola has some info, and there are also sites on the web that help you get your laws and know how to word your letter exactly..
some schools accept what the State requires and that is that, some give a really hard time, but in that case are usually over-stepping their bounds and not within the law and/or ignorant about vaccine health concerns (ie: think it is dangerous NOT to get vaccines)..
in that case, if you are taking religious excemption, just be sure not to talk about health concerns..
Once you read up a bit on how others have handled it and also gotten your particulars, you should be fine.
Most people do not realize it is said to be 'mandated'..but you can absolutely get an exemption for these vaccines.
I wouldn't risk getting it when you are in perfect right not to. Especially with Lyme.. (this is one thing I disagree with the great and wonderful Doc J on, maybe the only thing )
Here's an article on the dangers:
Health Freedom Resources - Public Awareness Announcement #14
It's the flu season... think twice before getting your vaccination. If you are a care giver for children, please consider this material and its related references carefully before allowing a child to be vaccinated. This article is passed along to you from our friends at SunToads.
---------------------------------------------
FLU VACCINES EXTREMELY DANGEROUS
Influenza is a specific syndrome, provoked by a specific viral agent, the influenza virus. The symptoms may be severe, or even lead to exitus in people with a weakened general condition.
Two main families have been detected, influenza A and B. But there are many strains of influenza viruses, and, moreover, existing strains mutate all the time. It is, therefore, an extremely difficult task to 'foresee' the causative agent of a new influenza epidemic, and even more difficult to produce a corresponding vaccine in time. The constant mutation of the viruses, and the unpredictability of which virus will show up where and when, makes the whole influenza vaccination business into a giant poker game.
The most intriguing deception of the public, however, is the suggestion that the patient who gets an influenza-vaccination will not get the flu. What is generally known to the public as 'a flu' is an influenza-like syndrome, with symptoms like fever, chills, muskel- or joint pains, a headache, a runny nose, and general malaise. This disease, however, has got nothing to do with the real influenza, neither can it in any way be prevented by an influenza vaccination. Thus, if doctors guarantee their patients that they will not get the flu after they came in to get their jab, this is an unethical manipulation, the basis for which most probably is simply profit for both those who produce the vaccine and those who administer it.
Apart from this manipulation, questions have to be answered as to the efficacy and the safety of the vaccine.
----------------------------------
Efficacy
The lack of efficacy of the vaccine is well illustrated in a Dutch article (1) about a home for elderly people, where in spite of vaccination of two thirds of the population, a severe flu struck 49% of them, with strong morbidity (bacterial infections, pneumonia) and high mortality (10%). An important observation was that in the vaccinated population, 50% got the disease, compared to 48% of non-vaccinated. Also, complement binding antibodies for influenza A were positive in 41% of vaccinated compared to 36% in non-vaccinated. This clearly shows that the vaccination status did not have a protective influence at all. Further laboratory investigation confirmed that antibody building against the vaccine was normal, but the causative influenza A virus had not reacted to the vaccine the patients had been given.
Comparison with a similar situation in 1988 in a home for elderly people shows that in that second case both morbidity and mortality were significantly lower, namely 37 and 3%, respectively. The main difference, however, was ... that in this second home patients had not been vaccinated!
Induction of antibodies in elderly people never is higher than 52-67% (2). Morris even declares the efficiency is not more than about 20% (3). Mistakes in production, transport, conservation and administration can be responsible for a further decrease of efficacy (4).
-----------------------------
Safety
Questions about the safety of influenza vaccines are not new. As early as 1973, Rabin wrote that between 1966 and 1970 almost all USA-made influenza vaccines were toxic (5).
I. Neurological complications
For many years, neurological complications of influenza vaccination were simply denied. In 1966, Stuart-Harris wrote that "There is little direct evidence that any of these neurological illnesses during or after influenza are specifically caused by the influenza virus" (6). And in 1971, Wells still believed that "There is at present no way of proving or of disproving the aethiological relationship" (7).
Later on, USA studies proved that there was indeed a relationship between both. Observations during and after the A/New Jersey mass vaccination campaign in 1976 lead to convincing statistics (see GBS). German authors calculated the frequency of neurological complications at 1/0.7 million doses for influenza B vaccines and at 1/1.3 million vaccinations for influenza A vaccines (4). It is clear that for these figures, only documented cases have been taken into account, whereas as a rule not all cases have been properly diagnosed and reported. The real figures, thus, are likely to be higher. The first syndrome to be clearly correlated with the influenza-vaccination was the Guillain-Barre paralysis (1977). But only one year later, researchers discovered that neurological complications were not at all restricted to this one syndrome; on the contrary, they found a good number of neurological affections (8). Hennessen et.al. call the spectrum of syndromes "remarkably wide" and notice that in the course of a postvaccination disease process it is not rare for them to mingle into many different mixtures.
Although the first syndromes were detected after the A/New Jersey mass vaccination, complications after influenza vaccination can in no way be attributed or limited to this one vaccine. All 28 cases described by Hennessen et. al. e.g. were vaccinated with vaccines that did not contain this A/New Jersey strain.
More epidemiological data were gathered by Hennessen et al. The incidence of affections was significantly higher in autumn (September-November), four times more common in males than in females, in all age groups (16-73 years old) with an average age of 38,9 years. The interval between vaccination and first symptoms varied between 24 hours and 4 weeks, with an average of 11.3 days (8).
A. Paralysis
1) Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS)
The relationship between influenza-vaccination and GBS was proven after the 1976 A/New Jersey mass vaccination in the USA. In eleven states, comparable samples of vaccinated and non-vaccinated proved that in those vaccinated GBS occured in 1,55/million, compared to 0,17 in non-vaccinated (9,11 times more frequent in those vaccinated). (Hennessen quotes different figures: 8,0/million in vaccinated compared to 1,8/million in non-vaccinated 8). 31% of cases were over 60 years old. Only 12% occured within 7 days after vaccination, 74% between 8 and 28 days, and 14% even after one month 9. Most cases were diagnosed between 2 and 4 weeks after vaccination. Single cases occured up to 9 weeks after vaccination. Ehrengut & Allerdist mention that, within 3 weeks after vaccination, the frequency already is up to 3,12 cases per million vaccines 4, which would raise the risk factor for vaccines to 18,35.
Ehrengut and Allerdist describe a case which progressed from paralysis of the extremities to affection of the intercostal muscles and facial paralysis (4). This complication may occur in normal, healthy individuals without any preliminary disease.
More cases were described during an IABS Symposium in Geneva, 1977 (10).
2) Facialis paralysis
This symptom generally occurs as part of a Guillain-Barre Syndrome (4,
8). 3) Paralysis of the extremities
Paralysis of both upper limbs occured in a 40 year old man, with severe pain, atrophy of deltoideus muskles and hypoesthesia of the right arm after inoculation in the left upper arm (4).
Paresis of both lower limbs in a 58 year old man (4).
Wells describes two cases of myelitis transversa (7).
4) Landry syndrome (8)
5) Hypoglossus nerve paralysis (11)
B. Polyneuritis
Polyneuritis may occur in hands and feet, eventually accompanied of paralytic symptoms (4). Cases of polyradiculitis, polyradiculomyelitis and polyganglioradiculitis are documented.
1) Hypoesthesia
2) Paresthesia (formication and numbness) have been noticed (4, 8).
3) Neuralgia
a) Trigeminus neuralgia (8) b) Ischialgia (right sided) (8) c) Intercostal neuralgia (chestpain) (8) d) Sensory brachial plexus neuropathy (Parsonage-Turner Syndrome) (8, 12, 13).
C. Meningitis
Meningeal infection and a stiff neck with positive lumbar punction can exist separately, or as part of a GBS syndrome (4).
D. Encephalitis
Encephalomyelitis and encephalopathy after influenza vaccination have been documented. A case was described by Ehrengut & Allerdist with loss of sight, then complete loss of consciousness and paralysis (4). Case 10 described by Hennessen had encephalitis with central disturbance of the N. Vestibularis (8). Also case 13 in the same study had encephalitis. Case 20 & 21 were diagnosed as meningoencephalomyelitis. Woods describes a case of encephalitis in a healthy seven year old girl in 1963 (14), Warren in 1956 (15), and another two cases were documented in 1962 (16).
E. Multiple Sclerosis
Some authors described a "recurrent encephalomyelitic syndrome" after vaccination (17, 18). Hennessen et al saw a similar case, where they were able to make the certain diagnosis of MS (8).
An exacerbation of symptoms was noticed in 1 out of 93 MS-patients vaccinated against influenza 19, 20.
F. Ataxia
Difficulties in walking in a 34 year old man were noticed, nine months after his influenza vaccination. The sensitive polyneuritis which also started shortly after vaccination had not subsided by that time. Right sided ataxia of lower limbs (8).
G. Headache
A strong headache (8) occuring within hours after vaccination is suggestive for meningeal or brain irritation and deserves immediate further investigation.
H. Disorientation about places (8)
I. Unconsciousness
Multiple drop attacks occured in a case described by Stor & Mayer (21).
J. Trembling of upper limbs (21)
K. Automatic motions of fingers and toes (21)
L. Aphasia (loss of speech) (8)
II. Respiratory Infections
A. Bronchitis
A strong bronchitis with fever was noticed in a 29-year old man who also developed GBS later on (4).
B. Bronchopneumonia
This occured in a 41 year old man, where symptoms started with paresthesia of fingertips, and ended up with death, 4 weeks after vaccination. Pneumonia 14 days after vaccination (8).
III. Gastro-intestinal problems
A. Vomiting
This happened to a man 13 days after vaccination; paralytic symptoms were noticed later on (4).
B. Nausea (8)
C. Rectal incontinence (8)
IV. Urinary symptoms
Dysuria or paralysis of the bladder
Difficulties with urination bothered a man 13 days after vaccination; a distention of the bladder was diagnosed. Complete paralysis of the bladder with necessity of catheterisation followed. Paralytic symptoms of the extremities were noticed later on (4).
V. Sexual problems
Impotence
Lessening of sexual potency lasted for over 3 months in a patient who suffered GBS (4). Sexual impotence (4).
VI. ORL
A. Vertigo
Vertigo with tendency to fall to the right side, 5 days after vaccination, accompanied an encephalitis in an eighteen year old male 4. Vertigo with nystagmus, within minutes after vaccination, so strong that the 13 year old, healthy boy could not even stand up or sit anymore (4). Affection of the N. Vestibularis in combination with encephalitis (8).
B. Noises in the ears (8)
C. Impeded hearing (8)
VII. Eyes
A. Prooptosis (8)
B. Oedema of the retina (8)
C. Diminished vision; blurred vision (8)
D. Diplopia (8)
E. Nystagmus (8)
F. Paralysis of eye muscles (cranial nerves VII & IX) (8)
VIII. Circulatory problems
A. Collapse (8)
B. Transient livid discoloration of the hands (8).
C. Allergic thrombocytopenia in a 58 years old man 7 days after vaccination.
D. Disturbed blood pressure (both increased of decreased) (8).
E. Angor pectoris (8).
F. Collapse (8)
Hennessen et al describe some cases, both in elderly men with either hyper- or hypotonic crises, but also in a young man with ophistotonus, and tonic-clonic fits within minutes after vaccination.
IX. General symptoms
A. Fever
Fever occurs together with other syndromes, e.g. meningitis or GBS.
B. Somnolence
This may also be part of a larger neurological syndrome, such as GBS (4), (8).
C. Fatigue
Fatigue can be part of a general decrease of functional capacities (21).
Chronic fatigue is known to last for years after the infection subsided (4).
D. Anaphylactic reactions
Typical for anaphylactic reactions is the short incubation time.
Ehrengut & Allerdist describe such a reaction in an allergic person 1/2 hour after vaccination (4). Warren describes a case where the reaction followed 4 to 5 hours after vaccination with fever, coryza and bronchospasms (15).
X. Mental problems
A. Difficulty in thinking (21)
B. Loss of initiative (21)
C. Confusion (14)
D. Hallucinations (14)
XI. Emotional problems
Sadness (21)
XII. Death
A 41 year old man died 4 weeks after vaccination, after progressive polyneuropathy and bronchopneumonia had developed (4). Death within 4 days (7).
----------------------------------------
Age Distribution
The many case descriptions available in medical literature prove that all age groups are susceptible to side effects.
Particularly important is the frequency of patients with serious side effects after the vaccine had been given for several years without any problem. This means that a lack of side effects after a vaccination is not a guarantee of safety of administration of the same vaccine in that patient later on.
From those who suffered GBS after vaccination, 11% were under 30 years of age, 58% were between 30 and 59, and 31% were 60 and more.
--------------------------------------
Etiology
Different mechanisms can play a role in the development of a post-vaccination neuropathy.
a) Hypersensitivity reactions of the nervous system (serogenetic) are responsible in a good number of cases. Poser and Fowler describe similarities between GBS and serum disease.
b) Toxic reactions may occur soon after inoculation of the patient in the absence of specific allergies.
c) Viral infection of the brain by vaccinal viruses (4) or by reactivation of latent germs (21).
d) Activation of latent auto-immune diseases (21).
The fact that different vaccines from different manufacturers lead to similar complications, suggests that these are not the consequence of the impurity of a certain vaccine, but a risk inherent in any influenza vaccine.
----------------------------------
Contra-Indications
Any impairment of the immune system should be considered a contra-indication.
1. Allergies, especially to any substance of the vaccines; allergy to proteins, cows milk etc.; hay fever... Allergic constitutions often lead to hypersensitive reactions (8).
2. Akute infections with or without fever must be a reason to postpone or abandon vaccination.
3. Chronic impairment of the immune system (auto-immune diseases) imply an increased risk in case of vaccination.

If I would ever be in a situation where I was forced by a organization to get myself vaccinated, I would simply deny it. If they would threaten me, I would then quit, then sue them.
I don't know about the law in this case, but unless you are in the Military, or you are being employed by someone, a school should not force you to take medication.
I think there are loopholes in the law, I know a mother who (despite constant fighting), has legally beat off the school systems attempts to force vaccinations on her kids. (And her kids are in picture perfect health despite no shots.)
For the life of me, I can't figure out why they force vaccinations on something like Hep B. Considering Hep B is self limiting and does not cause long term effect. This is a case of the cure being worse than the disease.
On the flip side, the vaccine does cause effects on the body, some short and some long. Some serious, some annoying. But there is a very strong link between Hep B shot and neurological issues. There was even a famous Nascar race driver's little girl that is permanently crippled from the Hep B shot.
That's why France has banned it:
"In 1998, France became the first country to terminate a hepB vaccine program. The French Ministry of Health acted when complaints of multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis and other illnesses in patients who received the hepB vaccine were reported. Up to 900 cases of MS may have been linked to the vaccine. (90) Immunization with the recombinant hepatitis B vaccine trebles the risk of developing multiple sclerosis according to new U.S. research based on UK statistics. Published in Neurology, a study by the Harvard School of Public Health estimated that HBV immunization was associated with a 3-fold increase in incidence of MS within 3 years. (91) The 2002 the 'Madsen study' of 537,304 children in Denmark concluded that there was no link between the MMR vaccine and autism. This study is cited by public health agencies around the world as definitive proof that MMR is safe. However in Autumn 2004, an article was published which contradicted these findings.The Madsen study monitored the progress of vaccinated children in Denmark for only four years. Dr Fouad Yazbak and Dr G S Goldman looked at the same data but over a longer period of time and found that prevalence of autism among children aged from 5 to 9 stood at 8.38 cases per 100,000 in the pre-vaccine years 1980 to 1986, and then rose to 71.43 cases by the year 2000. (92)(93)."
Pretty scary stuff.
I would rather drop out of school or quit my job than to have my body violated with something that has mercury, fetal cells and infectious organisms laced in it.
It's one thing to be infected with something when you eat it, or when you breathe it, your body is made to fight off something like that. But the second those things are injected into you, your body's natural defences are bypassed.
quote:Originally posted by henson2: Thank you to all who wrote in to help me figure out how to avoid the Hep. B vaccine required by my university.
It consists of 3 separate shots, so I'd be getting the Thimersol (spelling?) with each one of them.

Exactly!
..and the real kick in the pants is..
vaccines have never been medically proven to work. They engage your immune system against these injected bacterium.. tieing it up with them long term (diseases with very low incidence rates, and many with high cure rates)..perhaps even confusing the immune fighters.. and then you get hit with an immune challanging condition (like Lyme) ..and you have impaired resources.
