Illinois adds 2 Booster shots without parental or medical input

[Guest guest]

<http://www.ageofautism.com/2012/07/freedom-illinois-takes-public-out-of-public-health-with-two-new-booster-vaccines.html>"IDPH has "required' and the Illinois State Superintendent of Education has "endorsed" a new booster shot for entry into 6th and 9th grades starting Fall, 2012.

There has been NO public input and NO local or state government meetings with public commenting. It appears that we are at the mercy of

the public schools, who have no medical degrees, and who will not allow

your child to enter the building. Is this coming to other states soon?

No voting or public comments but instead a decision by state public health?"SURELY they would accept titers, right - even though this is also an intrusion into your medical life from up on high. Not to mention that antibodies do not equal immunity, this is all a ridiculous power game. It was documented in the world wars soldiers getting tetanus after being wounded, even though had like 20,000 times the "protective level" of antibodies after a vaccine. It has been shown many times in the medical literature (most recently with a neat paper on mice missing the ability to make antibodies, exposed to viruses) the TRUTH that antibodies do not equal immunity. Anyway, the new law sounds to me like a very good reason to protest, home school or...move state.
