autism and vaccination

I know a family with a child who has autism. The school the child goes to have told the parents that their child must have the flu vaccine by 31 December. The parents are considering vaccinating the child as they don't know what they can do to avoid this. They live in New Jersey. As I don't live in the States, I'm not sure how to get around the system, can anyone help?

Thanks,

Michelle

the parents need to arm themselves with information. many vaccines safety data sheets indicate that the drug is contraindicated
under certain conditions, usually including a compromised immune system. autism should be looked at that way. they have almost
2 months to get their argument together--or make another decision as to what school their child should attend.
they need to inform themselves of the exemption policies of that state and National Vaccine Information Center is a good resource for
information. but the policies will be online.
but at the moment the cdc has not made the flu vaccine mandatory but is only encouraging its dissemination. so they parents should
have legal ground to resist. they may need a lawyer at some point and should find a doctor who will support their refusal--that can be
a bit difficult, but more and more doctors are questioning the fly vaccine.
the situation here has gotten pretty rabid around enforcing/pushing vaccines. in my area of ny the schools are totally blind to any other choice
even when you find school nurses who question the safety of these drugs. they are very conservative and won't stick their neck out
to even question this.

Are they using chelation?

Maybe this will be of use--an article from some e-newsletter--sorry the formatting is funky, but the information looks good!

per Dr. Russell Blaylock:
Treatment for Toxic Vaccine Exposure
1. Place a cold compress on the site of the injection immediately after the injection and continue this as often as possible for at least two days. If symptoms of fever, irritability, fatigue or flu-like symptoms reoccur -- continue the cold compresses until they abate. A cold shower or bath will also help.
2. Take fish oils -- I recommend the Norwegian fish oil made by Carlson Labs -- it has the correct balance of EPA and DHA to reduce the cytokine storm. The dose is one tablespoon a day -- if severe symptoms develop -- two tablespoons a day until well and then switch to one tablespoon a day. Children -- one teaspoon a day.
3. Curcumin, quercetin, ferulic acid and ellagic acid as a mixture -- the first two must be mixed with extravirgin olive in one teaspoon. Take the mix three times a day (500 mg of each)
4. Vitamin E (natural form) 400 IU a day (high in gamma-E)
5. Vitamin C 1000 mg four times a day
6. Astaxanthin 4 mg a day
7. Zinc 20 mg a day for one week then 5 mg a day
8. Avoid all immune stimulating supplements (mushroom extracts, whey protein) except beta-glucan -- it has been shown to reduce inflammation, microglial activation and has a reduced risk of aggravating autoimmunity, while increasing antiviral cellular immunity.
9.
Take a multivitamin/mineral daily (one without iron -- Extend Core)
10.
Magnesium citrate/malate 500 mg of elemental magnesium two capsules three times a day
11.
Vitamin D3:
1.
All Children -- 5000 IU a day for two weeks after vaccine then 2000 IU a day thereafter
2.
Adults -- 20,000 IU a day after vaccine for two weeks then 10,000 IU a day thereafter
3.
Take 500 mg to 1000 mg of calcium citrate a day for adults and 250 mg a day for children under age 12 years.
12.
Avoid all mercury-containing seafood
13.
Avoid omega-6 oils (corn, safflower, sunflower, soybean, canola and peanut oils)
14.
Blenderize parsley and celery and drink 8 ounces twice a day
15.
Take Jatoba tea extract (add 20 drops in on cup of tea) one day before the vaccine and the twice a day thereafter. (you can get it at http://www.iherb.com/Amazon-Therapeutic ... 14429?at=0) It is inexpensive.

Here is some information and a form letter you can use to file an exemption. I am in PA and have done this for both of my children and my school and doctor have accepted it without a fuss.

There are exemptions they should use for school in New Jersey

If you never used the exemption before, doesn't mean you can't start now - you didn't know and/or you had a change of reglious belief (do not need to say that)

Here is the link to the exemption in NJ
http://www.nvic.org/Vaccine-Laws/state- ... ersey.aspx
and here
http://www.njaicv.org/law.htm
Religious Exemptions:
N.J.S.A. 26:1A - 1 provides an exemption for pupils from mandatory immunization "if the parent or guardian of the pupil objects thereto in a written statement signed by the parent or guardian upon the ground that the proposed immunization interferes with the free exercise of the pupil's religious rights." All schools, child care centers, and local health officers may be advised that the religious exemption extends to private, parochial, and public institutions. When a parent or guardian submits their written religious exemption to immunization, which contains some religious reference, those persons charged with implementing administrative rules at N.J.A.C. 8:57 - 4.4, should not question whether the parent's professed religious statement or stated belief is reasonable, acceptable, sincere and bona fide. In practice, if the written statement contains the word "religion" or "religious" or some reference thereto, then the statement should be accepted and the religious exemption of mandatory immunization(s) granted. The language requiring how the administration of immunizing agents conflicts with the student's religious beliefs does not mandate specificity as to membership in a recognized church or religious denomination. NJDHSS will seek to amend the rules at N.J.A.C. 8:57 - 4.4 through the Administrative Rules process to be consistent with N.J.S.A. 26:1A - 1.

2. Are vaccines required for children to attend school and daycare in New Jersey?
New Jersey has mandatory vaccination regulations, however, a child can attend public or most private schools with select or no vaccines if the parent/guardian provides a valid medical or religious exemption letter to the school administrator. Private and religiously affiliated schools may or may not accept religious vaccine exemptions, however. NJ does not currently allow parents to use a conscientious/philosophical vaccine exemption, which would change if bill A260/S1071passes into law.

5. Does my child qualify for a religious exemption and how do I claim this?
In order to qualify for a religious exemption, you must have sincere religious beliefs that prohibit vaccination. A valid religious exemption letter is also required to legally exempt a child from mandated vaccines. A parent/guardian must write the letter and should include the NJ state law that defines the right to a religious exemption and include an explanation as to why the practice of vaccination conflicts with your religious beliefs/ tenets. You are not obligated to disclose your religion to obtain a religious exemption. In the recent past, school officials have erroneously requested letters from clergy or they have questioned a parents religion, as well as other discriminatory practices. According to a Dec. 1, 2008 memo by the NJ Department of Health and Senior Services, school administrators were specifically instructed to avoidsuch practices. The memo itself can be accessed here .

http://www.state.nj.us/health/cd/docume ... ine_qa.pdf
Q: What should be included in an acceptable religious exemption?
A: A religious exemption is not the same as a philosophical, moral or conscientious exemption. A religious exemption does not have to include the name of the religion, nor does it need to be notarized nor does it need to be signed by a religious leader. It can be filed by a parent or guardian of a minor or by an adult individual.
All schools, child care centers, and local health officers may be advised that the
religious exemption extends to private, parochial, and public institutions. When a
parent or guardian submits their written religious exemption to immunization,
which contains some religious reference, those persons charged with
implementing administrative rules at N.J.A.C. 8:57 4.4, should not question
whether the parent's professed religious statement or stated belief is reasonable,
acceptable, sincere and bona fide. In practice, if the written statement contains the word "religion" or "religious" or some reference thereto, then the statement should be accepted and the religious exemption of mandatory immunization(s) granted.

shoulds, woulds, and coulds. the parents need to be ready for a fight.
in ny i know people who have used religious exemptions but the school would not
take it. i know of one woman with 4 kids. the school district accepted her religious exemption
for 3 of them. when her 4th was in 1st grade they made an issue. she was a rostifarian. this is
where you also get complications of race and class along with the vaccine issue. she did not
stay in touch with me so i don't know how her case got resolved. and this was about 3-4 yrs ago
priot to this latest flu fiasco.
home schooling has been the opt out for many reasons. in the 1970's it was for political and
philosophical reasons and the schools were heavily attacked by the state. then it was for
religous reasons and we had a burgeoning growth of homeschooling by right wing fundamentalists.
the state supported them. they also did not vaccinate. now we are getting people who begin their
own private schools or home school to specifically avoid vaccination while promoting an elitism
for their children. we will see what happens when all these kids want to go to college and are
faced with demands for vaccinations!
