Guest guest Posted May 31, 2008 Report Share Posted May 31, 2008 Act now to stop the worst vaccine law ever proposed in New York since the invention of the mandatory schedule. Assembly Bill 10942 would make all vaccines recommended by the CDC mandatory for all children to attend school and, and for the first time vaccines would become mandatory for infants and toddlers. The bill was introduced in Rules Committee at the request of Daines, the Commissioner of the New York State Department of Health. The Rules Committee in the personal committee of the Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver (D-Manhattan). A-CHAMP is calling for rejection of this bill and is demanding the passage of A5468/S3031, a bill that would give individuals a right to a philosophical exemption from vaccine mandates. This is no time to transfer vaccine decisions away from individuals and elected officials answerable to the voters and give it to obscure bureaucrats with financial ties to the vaccine industry. Here are a few features of the proposed bill: Our elected New York representatives would no longer determine the mandatory schedule of vaccines to attend school; decisions made by the federal Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices would automatically become mandatory. All children, infants and toddlers included, in New York would be required to get all vaccines recommended by the ACIP according to the ACIP schedule All junior high school children and college students would be required to get meningococcal shots. Doctors would be required to issue certificates for every shot given and parents would be required to maintain the records and provide them to school and other authorities. The rules committee claims that the new laws would have no fiscal impact on the state despite the necessity of the state to spend tens of millions on purchasing new vaccines, a vast increase in mandatory record keeping and enforcement for schools, and a huge increase that could be expected in the number of cases of neurological damage, Guillian Barré syndrome and other vaccine-caused injuries. We only have a few weeks to defeat this bill. Let your Assemblymember and State Senator know immediately that a vote for this bill guarantees that you will do everything you can to get them un-elected. In addition to emailing and calling your local representatives, please call Speaker Sheldon Silver and let his staff know, politely, that this is a disastrous idea. While you are at it please call Governor Paterson and let his staff know, politely, that this is a horrible law.

Guest guest Posted May 31, 2008 Report Share Posted May 31, 2008 What's going on with Daines, who proposed this abominable law? It is totally ridiculous to make any of these vaccines "mandatory", because NONE of them have been evaluated for the potential to cause carcinogenicity, mutagenicity, and genotoxicity. I for one, will not have my kids be "guinea pigs" in these stupid experiments, even if the vaccines are "government-mandated". Any of us who have studied the adverse reactions to vaccines, know that adverse reactions/events are more commonplace than the powers that be would be willing to acknowledge. http://www.health.state.ny.us/professionals/patients/medicines/prescription/comments_submitted_to_the_fda.htm Gilmore wrote: Act now to stop the worst vaccine law ever proposed in New York since the invention of the mandatory schedule.
