The American Medical Association (AMA), one of the largest and most influential associations of medical doctors in the country, today endorsed putting an end to religious exemptions to immunization requirements.
“Under new policy, the AMA will seek more stringent state immunization requirements to allow exemptions only for medical reasons,” the organization said in a press release.
The AMA issued recommendations to state health departments and physicians designed to banish non-medical exemptions from the landscape of American medicine.
VLA CommentUpdate on California bill: Merck won. SB277: 12 to 6; it passed “Health Committee”. There was mention of an amendment so it should have to go back to the senate floor for a vote, I believe. However, if that amendment (which I believe was from us) fails to get attached (which seems likely), that apparently is the end of the game. (basecamp)
War’s on folks. Remember http://www.soilandhealth.org health library for your debate needs. Shelton, Tilden, etc. Print those off as well before the internet goes down or back up to thumb drives and blank cdr’s galore!
This is simply horrific. I quit my job as a nurse (38 years) because of the number of vaccines I was required to give. It was heartbreaking and such BAD medicine. After my husband received a flu shot and a pneumonia vac on the same day, cancer began to grow like it was fertilized. Of course, no one blames the attack on his immune system by these vaccines but I KNOW they contributed to his illness.
I hear you!
