Hep B Vaccine in
Newborns
I remember
the nasty looks I received the day I refused to give my newborn infant the Hep
B vaccine. The staff insisted I read the
“literature” so I cold make an informed decision – I guess as a woman on Medicaid
they assumed I had not done my homework – it is a wonder they even accepted I
could read.
To me it is
a wonder why anyone would vaccinate a newborn with a substance made up of neurotoxin
metals, harsh chemicals, gelatin (which is anathema to Muslims, Jews, Hebrews,
vegans, etc) and genetic engineered pathogens.
I mean, duh? Can anyone say ick?
Besides the
ingredients, there is actually no substantiated proof that 1) Heb B is a major/minor
disease (in fact it was discovered by a man named Baruch Blumberg who was
studying something completely different.
And the steps he took that actually isolated what was before then, in
1991, a relatively unknown disease, are hazy at best). 2) the vaccine actually prevents the disease. “Hepatitis
B is not common in childhood in the U.S. and is not highly contagious in the
same way that common childhood diseases like pertussis and chicken pox are
contagious. In the U.S., hepatitis B is primarily an adult disease (ages 20-50).”

I don’t
know anyone with Hep B. But we are all
told it is a STD. First of all, where is
the proof that this is the only method on transmission. Second of all, why are we vaccinating
newborns against STD’s? Is my newborn
really engaging in the kind of behavior that could expose her to an STD? Really?
“In the U.S., individuals
at highest risk for hepatitis B infection are those, who engage in risky
behaviors such as illegal IV drug abuse, prostitution, men who have sex with
men, heterosexuals with multiple sexual partners and people who have received
blood transfusions using infected blood.” (NVIC)
But pharmaceutical
companies make trillions of dollars each year on the vaccine. Hmmm.
Ever heard
of the ACIP (Advisory Committee on Immunization Practice)? This is a committee of 15 people, some with
ties to pharmaceutical companies $$$$ who decide for ALL Americans which
vaccines should be mandatory, when/where/how much. And then the pharmaceutical companies – who have
a monetary interest – lobby hard to make these vaccines so mandatory that they
an be administered even without parental consent.
Heeeeelllllo. Since when does a for profit company get to
dictate to me the health and well being of my child?

Hello Shahrazad,
ReplyDeleteI have not done any research on Hepatitis B but from the looks of things I need to follow up on some research because you make some very valid points about vaccinating newborns. When I plan on having children, I need to make sure every thing is great health wise and Hepatitis B is nothing I want my child dealing with at all. Thanks for this insight Shahrazad.
You make very valid points. I don't think that I am very up on my information on Hepatitis B because I didn't know many of the facts that you mentioned. I guess I should pay closer attention to the medications I let my children get.
ReplyDeleteThis is a very interesting post and I have never looked or read about something like this from another person point of view that is against vaccinations. Long as you have a valid reason and stick to what you believe in I see no problem with it at all. But the Hep B information is very informal to me and I am glad you shared it.
ReplyDeleteI remember getting the nasty look when I said I did not want to breastfeed my daughter. Plus the lactation department had the nerve to wake me up at 3am to discuss why I am not breastfeeding. I was so mad I called security on the nurse and my mother report her to the hospital administration department. I asked for WIC and the nurse replied "You don't qualify for that". I said you don't know what I qualify for and b/c of her judgement the WIC rep did not even see me, I had to go to the local health department. I enjoyed your blog. I am so sick of people in our society judging each other. We just might learn something from one another.
