I have gotten an Immunization Notice That i'm prepared to fight.? |
I am absolutely FED up with these "Mandatory Booster" Children and teens need to go through for nothing. I found a Legal Document that Can cause me not to get the Diphtheria- Tetanus I work in the state of California at an Immunization clinic. Instead of looking of it as getting another needle poked in you, look at it as a vaccine helping to protect you from a harmful disease. Please reconsider getting the vaccine. It is for your own bennifit Report It Go to the school and ASK them for the paper work, by law they have to tell you what form to use. I think its better to get a shot and be safe than regret later of not getting it when you get the disease... Okay--I know that this is not what you want to hear, but unless you have been a member of a known religion ,like Jehovah's witness or Amish, that forbids immunizations for several years, this documentation would not help you--after all it is on record that you have had immuniztations in the past. Another thing--tetanus is very common in the US, and without the one little shot from the vaccine, then you will get a series of two shots a day with very large needles for 2 weeks, plus IVs every day if you get tetanus. I personally would chose the one booster shot rather than risk it. You can get tetanus from any wound that heals over quickly, leaving bacteria trapped inside. If tetnus is not found quickly enough, even with modern medicine, it is deadly. Having diabetes can weaken your immune system so you are at a higher risk for infections than the general population. Although needles suck, its just a shot, you will get over it. a tiny pick is way better than getting a life threatening disease. |
