Danger at the hospital intake counter

The devastating impact of ignoring vaccine-safety principles and insisting upon "No vaccinations - no medical care" policies.

Danger at the hospital intake counter

The principle that one should not vaccinate someone who is sick goes back quite far, though the exact time when this knowledge became widespread in medical practice is not easy to pinpoint. It has its roots in early understandings of the immune system and infectious diseases, dating back at least to the development of the first vaccines in the late 18th century.

Edward Jenner, who pioneered the smallpox vaccine in the 1790s, and later practitioners recognized that vaccines were more effective when administered to healthy individuals. As vaccines became more widely used in the 19th and early 20th centuries, this principle was further refined as medical professionals observed that vaccinating a sick person could overstress the immune system or worsen existing conditions.

Every time I've taken one of my kids to the ER my answer has always been a nonchalant "yep" – even though it was never true.

Here's a recent, tragic example of what can happen when medical professionals ignore the basic principles of vaccine safety and insist on vaccination before providing medical treatment:

Here are some important, positive updates on Alexis:

Her full story, official fund-raising page, X as a free speech platform, and the heroes helping her, are beautifully, powerfully important because normally the vaccine-injured get quietly tossed away. In fact, that's part of the purpose of censorship.

When hospitals focus only on numbers and compliance instead of the individual, they ignore the most important principles of vaccine safety: never vaccinate a sick or injured person, nor somebody with a serious underlying condition.

This applies to children with serious food allergies. Artificially ramping up the immune system of a child whose system is already dangerously over-reactive will only make the problem worse.

Parents! You must make vaccine safety knowledge an important part of your job because the medical system cares only about compliance and fully vaccinating your children.
