Here is my site link for exemptions by state http://www.access1.net/via/STATES/allstates.htm Your school should have a waiver/exemption form you can fill out.

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2001 Report Share Posted September 27, 2001 We're in CT and have used a religious exemption letter for vaccines for the last two years with no challenge from school officials. We got a rather official looking letter from Natural Hygiene, Inc in Mass and their phone # is . They type your child's name, school and town on it and it is signed by their president along with listing their board members. I think it costs a year's subscription ($20) to their journel which is rather informative and $10 for the letter. I think they even faxed us the letter one time. The school has more of a tough time challenging religion but be careful if you choose a medical reason that might be harder to defend. Example: Egg allergies, what about all the vaccines that aren't egg based. Our ex ped wouldn't even dream backing us on any medical reason in fact she's the one who lead my son (us) down this road diverting us from coming to a conclusion sooner that something was wrong. Titers are good too. We found out that after the MMR (which was the trigger) that he has antibodies for measles and mumps....so medically he can be exempted from measles and mumps but that still leaves rubella....so I would still stick with religion. Good luck, Mike > I know you can get a religious exemption, but I'm wondering how I go > about doing that? Do I need to prove it with something official? Any > advice anyone?
