How to refuse vaccines?

This is not for me. How would you refuse vaccines if you are required to have them for school?

Answer #1

Say you don’t believe in taking them. I don’t get vaccines and there is nothing that the school can do about it.

Answer #2

You can’t refuse ANY vaccines unless you stay home forever. They are REQUIRED for a reason. Don’t like it stay at home and don’t move on in life. Eventually you WILL have to get them so might as well suck it up now.

Answer #3

By the way the school and deny access to ANY student if they do NOT have their REQUIRED vaccines.

Answer #4

It depends on the laws in your country. Where I live, you are free to chose what medicine you take and what you refuse. Only if you work in health professions, your employer can require you to be vaccinated. Some countries have laws that enable a school to reject a student who does not have certain vaccines. Some countries have laws that require every citizen to have certain vaccines. The GDR and the USSR did that, for example.

Answer #5

IN THE USA YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO CHOICE WHETHER OR NOT YOU GET VACCINES. NO PUBLIC SCHOOL CAN TURN A STUDENT AWAY BECAUSE THEY DIDN’T GET VACCINES.

Private schools yes they can but no public school can. It’s part of the bill of rights we as American’s have the right to choice.

Answer #6

Some people are allergic to some medication, so they can’t have vaccines. Some people with chronic illnesses who take other meds regularly would have severe side effects from combining them. You don’t die if you’re not vaccinated. The problem is that vaccinations of a vast majority of people are necessary to make some diseases extinct. There has not been a single case of Polio in all Europe since 20 years for example. This is due to complete vaccination of all population. Now, theoretically, Polio is no longer a danger. If there is no Polio, then you can’t contract Polio. The problem is you can never be sure that the disease is really completely extinct. It might still exist in some village in central Mongolia or something. And then if you stop vaccinating people and someone goes to that village and comes back, carrying that disease home where folks are no longer resistant, you have it back and can start over in the beginning.

Some vaccs however are completely useless. Vaccinating agains chicken pox for example will usually have the result that you get them when you are 20 and then you’ll have them much worse than you’d have them as a 4-yr old child. If you get them as a kid, the disease is completely harmless. Still that vacc exists.

Answer #7

Hon, there is nothing about public education in the Bill of Rights and vaccinations did not exist when they were written. Public schools can require immunizations to attend but families who oppose vaccination on religious grounds are exempt from the requirement. I assume you use the religious exemption because I know of kids who have been turned away because they lacked the requires immunizations.

Answer #8

The right to choose is in the bill of rights…. And that is exactly what we are talking about here. If a public school turned away a students because they didnt have the correct shots there is a huge law suit that can be taken place. Sports and privite schools are a whole nother stories because they dont have to follow state laws (they have their own set of guidelines though). No public school can turn away a student for that reason.

Answer #9

In the United States, you can say that you want to refuse them on the basis of your religion. Other places vary, however. Even so, I would strongly recommend them….

Answer #10

Just say u don’t want them

Answer #11

If you are a Jehovah’s Witness, it is against your religious practices to accept medical attention. You are not going to be punished for not having vaccines, that would be unconstitutional.

Answer #12

I hate to be condescending but you don’t know what you are talking about. Which amendment in the bill of rights are you referring to? In any case, these are state laws and the constitution mainly deals with the federal government. The equal protection clause of the 14 amendment extends some of the bill of rights protections to states but not all. Vaccination laws vary by state. The Center for Disease Control CDC has a site to look up your state’s requirements and exceptions: http://funadvice.com/r/15r7askeeoa

Answer #13

i think you have to prove to the school that is is a religous beliefe for the reason of nto taking them… you cant be like ew no i dont wanna.. or i cant afford them..in the last to situations you still have TO get them

Answer #14

If you are in public school you could be kicked out. Try to fake an immunization record. Get a copy of someone elses record and try to duplicate it. Turn it to whomever and just hope they dont look too close and just drop it into your file.

Answer #15

Tori, Jehovah’s Witnesses do not oppose all medical treatment. JW’s generally refuse blood transfusions and certain blood products. Historically they have opposed vaccinations but changed their rules in 1952 to allow them. They also historically considered receiving organ transplants to be tantamount to cannibalism and refused them but the rules were changed allowing them since 1980. There are other faiths such as Christian Scientists that still oppose vaccination though.
