Guest guest Posted November 28, 2008 Report Share Posted November 28, 2008 Sheri B. If you can send my message to that lady , please do, \ \ It takes a lot of guts to stand up and face these jerks when they put the pressure on. I know I have been there. If I wore a hat I would take it off to you. I love your remark about the outbreak of hysteria and stupidity. A good well placed kick would have been ok too. These people need to understand some of us aren't mealy mouths, we are mad as hell and we aren't going to take their stupidity any longer. By the way I had hooping cough when I was seven or eight. My Mother sent me to bed. I stayed in bed and coughed myself well. What they did to you is part of their game plan to gang up on us, no-vaxers. They are now and always have been bullys and cowards. I know how tough it is, but stand your ground. The truth will win in the end. If there is anyone on this list in your state, maybe they would be willing to write a letter in support of you. Jim ________________________________ From: Sheri B. <tallchick1966@...> Group Group <vaccinations > Sent: Friday, November 28, 2008 8:06:38 PM Subject: Persecution of Innocent, Non-Vaxed Boy This was on my sister's chelation web group. Not sure if it took place in NC or not (we are in NC) but there is a County here and I've heard there is an " outbreak " of whooping cough, so it might be in our state. I have been mad about this all day long!! Sheri B. " Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I thought I would share my experience this week with 's school. Monday, around lunchtime, I ran in to a store to grab some votive candles. I was in the store for less than 5 minutes. I come back out and my cell phone is buzzing. I have three messages. The first one is from a woman at the Health Department. She says her name, she needs to talk to me immediately about my son, Black. The next message is from County Schools, the person needs to speak with me immediately about my son. The school nurse is the third call needing me immediately. I get in my car and start driving to the school. My heart is pounding. I'm dialing these people back, NO one is at their desk, yet they had just called me minutes before. I call the school and ask the secretary if is okay or if something has horribly gone wrong. She said was sitting in the office and to hold on. The school nurse gets on the phone. She tells me that some child in 's class has whooping cough. is " undervaccinated " and he has to be out of school for 21 days. He has to leave the premisis immediately. I said I would be right there. By the time I get there, the head person for County Schools is also at the school. is sitting in the office. We go into another room. They start questioning me about 's vaccinations, why didn't he get his boosters at kindergarten. I told them we had a religious exemption and if she had any further questions, she could ask my attorney. She goes on to say that we are putting other children at risk by not vaccinating . I asked if the child that had whooping cough had been vaccinated and she said " yes " . She says that there has been an " outbreak " of whooping cough in County (I think right now it is less than 10). I asked if all the children that have come down with whooping cough are vaccinated, and again, she said " yes " . So, I asked if all the other children in 's class would have to go home for 21 days, since the vaccinated children seemed to be at risk as well. You know the answer...no, because they got their shots. The woman with County Schools says they were seeing the " outbreak " happening with mostly 5th graders, so that must have been a bad batch that year. They put me on the phone with the woman at the Health Department. She explains to me when there is an outbreak or epidemic, they have jurisdiction over County Schools. would have to be out of school for 21 days. She wanted to know what pharmacy we used, because she was calling in an antibiotic for that he was to start immediately. I said she would not be calling in an antibiotic, she was not his doctor, he is highly allergic to two antibiotics and I would take him to his pediatrian. She informs me that his ped needed to follow the guidelines set forth by the CDC and the AAP. In addition, if started the antibiotic, he still would not be allowed to return to school for 21 days. At this point, I want to scream. The County School person says to me that she understands my " theory " of not wanting to vaccinate . I saw colors in my head. I leaned across the desk and my hands were clenched. I kept thinking... " don't hit her. " I said, " Theory? I watched start screaming, breaking out in a 105 fever, rash all over his body two days after his 18 month DTaP shot. We took him to the hospital. No one knew what was wrong. He then lost all his words, quit looking at us and the lights went out in his eyes. Theory? I watched it happen. Don't talk to me about theory. I've spent every day since then fighting, scratching and clawing to get my son back from that hell hole that he slipped in to. " The woman was stunned. I wanted to scream, throw myself on the floor and kick anything that got in the way. There's something to be said about throwing a tempertantrum for cleansing purposes. So, here's the kicker.. The child that has whooping cough actually had been diagnosed a week ago Wednesday. (His mother sent him right back to school. You can't fix stupid) His doctor had put him on an antibiotic for 5 days, after which you aren't contagious anymore. He was at school every day last week, plus Monday and Tuesday of this week. HE NEVER MISSED A DAY OF SCHOOL and won't. My son, doesn't have it at all, and isn't allowed to come back for 21 days. What I am most pissed about is that the school nurse went down to the lunchroom, pulled out in front of all the kids, took him down to the music room and told him because he didn't have all his shots, he would have to miss 21 days of school. She marched him down to his room, got his bookbag from the sidewalk, and then marched him back down to the office where he stayed until we left. He was treated like he WAS the virus. He isn't sick. He had sat in a room with the child for weeks while he was contagious. Would two more hours have made a difference? Couldn't he have finished the day and not be drug out of the lunchroom.. was so upset...he wanted to stay and take his spelling test. He will also miss his Christmas program. Just in case any of this happens to you all, you might want to be aware of what our friends at the CDC and Health Department are doing. Our pediatrician felt like he was being made an example of because he didn't have his kindergarten boosters. The incubation period is 5-10 days for whooping cough. In some rare instances, it has been as much as 21 days. AND, taking an antibiotic won't keep you from getting whooping cough, it will only make you non contagious after you come down with the symptoms. I have the prescription, and should he come down with symptoms, then I will give him the antibiotic. The reason no one was at their desk was because they were setting up crisis phone banks. PHONE BANKS. For one child at our school. I told the woman that the only thing I saw there was an outbreak of was hysteria and stupidity. I don't think she'll be sending me a Christmas card. I hope you all have a very happy holiday. I am thankful does not have whooping cough and that he is undervaccinated, he's talking and arguing with me like a 5th grader, he looks at me in the eye when he's arguing with me and he is just the love of our lives.

Guest guest Posted November 29, 2008 Report Share Posted November 29, 2008 This is terrible. You should be able to sue the school for abuse. They should send a tutor home because every child is entitled to an education. It seems that the sick children are allowed to stay in school and the health ones have to go home. > > Sheri B.

Guest guest Posted November 29, 2008 Report Share Posted November 29, 2008 Right, everything is opposite to what makes sense here. Aside from that, I would ask how they expect education to continue as well, since the state allows you to take an exemption & therefore should have contingencies. Liz > > > > Sheri B.

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 Hi Sheri, I was screaming at my laptop after I read your message. What an awful thing to do to !! It just makes absolutely no sense to send a healthy child home. Do they believe he infected those children? Why can't they not see what's plain: the vaccine didn't work !!!! All the best to you and your boy, Magda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 While I agree it is non-nonsensical, the religious exemption I had when I was still in FL was a blue card which specifically stated the period of removal from school in the instance of a " vaccine-preventable " disease, a condition I had to agree to to get the exemption. -Lana " There is nothing more useful than sun and salt.

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 This same thing happened to my daughter when she was in pre-school. One of the vaccinated kids in her class had an outbreak of chicken pox. My daughter was sent home to wait out the incubation period. It just baffled me at the time,and no one could logically explain to me why she had to stay home. It was just the 'rules' set forth by the health dept. Obviously, someone needs to challenge these crazy rules. An even stranger story is when I had my daughter's titers checked to see if she had been vaccinated before I adopted her. (she's from a foreign country). When the test results came in, my doctor's office called and said she had pertussis and had to be taken out of school immediately! They said the health dept. would be calling. I tried to explain that we had done the bloodwork to check the antigen levels and that she wasn't sick...but I couldn't convince her. (In defense of my doctor, she was out of the office for a month and I was dealing with her partner). Anyhow, 10 minutes later, as I was about to rush out the door to pick up my daughter, the office called back and said that the health dept. had confirmed that based on her bloodwork, she didn't have pertussis. No kidding! The laws are crazy and I wish some lawyer with an unvaccinated child would take the health dept. to task. It's discrimination when schools allow a vaccinated child to stay in school with a known virus, and then turn around and demand the unvaccinated healthy child to go home for weeks to protect the rest of the school. How is my child presenting any more of a risk than the diagnosed child? Something's not right and we need to change it. On a final note, my daughter is now in elementary school. Even though her bloodwork shows that she has antigens for pertussis, they will not accept it as PROOF that she has been vaccinated because we don't have the actual dates. It's all pretty disheartening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 I'm just reading this post now and shaking my head. You know, if these administrators, health officials, teachers, etc can't see the illogic of their actions, well then. I don't think. I take that back - I know I don't want to send my children to public school to be taught by them. Good grief. I am smarter than that and can give my kids a better education. An education that will allow them to use common sense! How dumb can people be. > > This was on my sister's chelation web group.

Guest guest Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 And they are happy to make this boy an example to other families who are thinking they might not want to vaccinate with the full schedule. Other parents see what happened to this boy, and they get even more scared to make a choice. Fear, intimidation, blackmail, propaganda. Americas Public Health servants at their best.

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 What a great way to put it, that this healthy person was blamed when someone else was responsible--and they get off scotfree. That is exactly how it should be presented. Let's remember that wording--thanks, Arlynn!
