And stop helping the BigPharm cartel push their dangerous vaccine wares for profit business. If you want to give vaccine awareness, that is fine, but make it Truthful information, not bias... complete with All the warnings that come with Vaccines and their label insert info. Vaccine injury is just about the only thing under the sun that is not Insurable. WHY??? Because they ALL know the dangers of vaccines. Vaccines should have never been mandated in the first place, and forcing vaccines is Criminal. Nobody has the right to force anything on anyone, esp. beyond their skin, including this herd mentality of forcing iffy vaccinations. Stop this rediculous bill, and your contribution of maiming and killing unsuspecting children, with these dangerous vaccines, that can cause short and long term, life altering consequences.... 34812@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Wed, 14 May 2008 00:00:00 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_SN_2911.html#34832 Educate the parents and let them decide. If the vacccines really do work them no one should be concerned about what anyone else does or doesn't do since they will be protected.
