A FEW WORDS ON MANDATORY VACCINES~THE RIGHT TO INFORMED CONSENT~THE RIGHT TO REFUSE VACCINES

A FEW WORDS ON MANDATORY VACCINES
 Mandatory vaccination is an assault on individual liberty. Until we recognize it as such, there will be no solution to this problem. The solution lies in protecting individual liberty against the state. What we need to do is to establish a limitation on the power of the state to vaccinate only in extraordinary circumstances. The government should have to prove that less intrusive alternative such as, for example, requiring the wearing of a mask or requiring people to wash their hands or avoid contact with others when they are ill is not a sufficiently adequate measure in a particular case to protect against the spread of the disease.
 In this video, the Chiropractic Malpractice Insurance leader, ChiroSecure and President Dr. Stu Hoffman are joined by Barbara Loe Fisher to talk about the right to choose whether to vaccinate or not. This show is one of the most compelling shows you will hear on this polarizing issue. Watch it from beginning to end and you will be touched.
 Barbara Loe Fisher: Vaccinations 
and Health Care Freedom
 Published on Jul 20, 2017
One of the world’s greatest advocates for health care freedom is Barbara Loe Fisher, though many are not aware of her accomplishments. As she reveals in this podcast interview, the National Vaccine Information Center, of which she is the president, would have folded a long time, ago if not for the support of chiropractors. Barbara began her advocacy for vaccine safety after her own son experienced challenges due to a vaccine reaction.

She was introduced to chiropractic by Larry Webster, often referred to as the father of chiropractic pediatrics, and is a very strong advocate and supporter of chiropractic. Barbara and her family have received chiropractic care themselves, every week for many, many years.

In this episode, you’ll hear some hot topics relative to health care freedom of which it is vitally important for you to be aware. This hard-hitting interview will give you vital information about advocacy, safety and sources where you can get even more information, to make you a well-informed consumer.

It’s so incredibly wonderful that he National Vaccine Information Center is supporting Mile-High 2017. They have our undying gratitude, and it’s going to be awesome being with them as the event.

Vaccines are pharmaceutical products that come with risks that can be greater for some people. 1 2 No vaccine is safe for everyone. 3 4
If you choose to vaccinate, ask 8 questions before you do: 5
  1. Number One: Am I sick right now? Getting vaccinated while sick could increase risks for a vaccine reaction or lower vaccine effectiveness. 6
  2. Number Two: Have I had a bad reaction to a vaccination before? Getting re-vaccinated after a previous vaccine reaction could cause a more serious reaction, injury or death. 7 8
  3. Number Three: Do I have a personal or family history of vaccine reactions, neurological disorders, severe allergies or immune system problems? Always review your personal and family medical history when evaluating vaccine benefits and risks. 9 10 11 12
  4. Number Four: Do I know the disease and vaccine risks? Learn about disease and vaccine risks that could be greater for you or your child. 13 14 15 16 17 18 19
  5. Number Five: Do I have full information about the vaccine’s side effects? Before you take a risk, find out what it is for each vaccine you or your child will receive. 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27
  6. Number Six: Do I know how to identify and report a vaccine reaction? Learn how to recognize vaccine reaction symptoms and where and how to report them. 28 29 30
  7. Number Seven: Do I know I need to keep a written record, including the vaccine manufacturer’s name and lot number, for vaccinations? The National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986 requires all vaccine providers to record information about vaccines given to you or your child. 31
  8. Number Eight: Do I know I have the right to make an informed choice? Informed consent to medical risk taking, including vaccine risk taking, is a human right. 32 33  34  35
