Health Impact News Editor Comments

As we have reported here at Health Impact News in many of our stories, U.S. States have tremendous financial incentives to take children away from families and place them into foster care. (See: The Medical Kidnapping Business: Bilking Medicaid.)

A child who is the ward of the State will automatically be eligible to have all of their medical needs reimbursed by Medicaid with little or no oversight. This is a huge financial windfall for medical professionals and pharmaceutical companies who can prescribe drugs and treatments by bypassing parental and insurance approval. Therefore, we are seeing foster children today being drugged at a rate many times higher than non-foster children. (See: Foster Care Abuse: Drugging Children Against Their Will.)

In Washington State, officials have apparently now mandated that all foster parent families must get their entire households, including young children, vaccinated with the influenza vaccine as a requirement for keeping any foster children. This is in spite of the fact that the flu vaccine is both dangerous and largely ineffective.

As KOMO News is reporting in Tacoma, at least one foster parent is fighting back, and refusing to comply, even if it means losing her 2-week old baby.

Foster mom says she’s willing to lose infant over flu shot mandate

Excerpts:

TACOMA, Wash. — Foster families are under a new mandate that everyone in their house needs a flu shot if they have foster kids under two years of age.

If they don’t comply, the children will be taken from them. At least one foster mom is going to fight that.

Foster parent Jamie Smith of Tacoma has a new addition to her foster home.

“He was born on Christmas. He’s our little Christmas baby,” Smith said.

Seven other babies have come through her home, including Bonnie, who is now 4-years old and adopted by the Smith family.

But the little 2-week-old may get taken away by the state unless Smith and all the members of her house get a flu shot. That includes the older foster kids in her care. She’s not going to comply.

“I’ve done a lot of research on it and I don’t like some of the side effects that it has,” she said.

Smith says she’s worried about mercury in the vaccine and its effects on the brain. She doesn’t want her or her five children exposed to that even if it means losing the little one.

“I’ve thought about that a lot,” said Smith. “Unfortunately, I have to think about our kids who are in the house first and to me they’re more important, their safety, than trying to fight to keep this little guy.”

She isn’t getting the shot, but her electrician husband did. He works for MultiCare and they require all employees to get a shot. Nurses at Multicare’s Tacoma General and Good Samaritan Hospitals are suing the company over its insistence they get flu shots or face termination.

“It is serious,” said Heather Stephens-Selby of the Washington State Nurses Association.

Now the foster families who handle young foster children are under the same gun. They hope by speaking out the state will ease up and keep the foster families together.

Flu shot nearly killed my cousins baby. Landed him in the hospital for 4 months, nearly kept him from walking, and has had 18 surgeries because of this. My mother too cant get the flu shot because it nearly killed her as well. Forcing people to get life saving measures that work for most but not all people is not what we are about in America. What ever happened to freedom of choice for onesself?

statistically 8 out of 10 people that posted here did not vote so quit blaming the government for not looking after your interests when you refuse to look after your own by votingplus we don’t have a government anymore we are ran as a business not as a community of people.

And for those if you who say it’s not her decision to act in behalf of her own biological and adopted children, who are they going to hold responsible for a vaccine injury? HER! She will be charged and the whole family will be put in foster care and jack them all up on meds and shots… For what? All because she denied a PROVEN fail of the flu shot? Get over the propaganda and scare tactics and see the big G for what it is! Evil!

Exactly. I am sure the ever growing group of Nurses Against Mandatory Vaccination thinks so too. Seriously out of control.

This foster mom has the interest of all concerned at heart.  She appears to have done her homework,  and is making the best choice, given impossible choices.  Very courageous and heart wrenching. A foster parent, who is providing much more then room and board. This is who I would want to decide what is in my best interest,  if I were a foster child, rather then a biological parent who is unable to take care of them selves,  and/or a child. And I would choose this foster parent anytime over a system,  that is riddled with conflicts of interest between corporate US affiliations and government. Look how many have died from flu after vaccination. Look at the CDC’s own notion that this year’s flu vaccine contains only strains of flu that are not the ones going around. In other words: useless. Not to mention known neurotoxins,  we have no business injecting into any children,  especially not infants! Take that  into account,  Washington State,  please! 

Rooting for this baby, this foster family,  and many others in the same predicament.

Obviously the birth mother is not fit to have the child -and if she did not get it together in 9 mos. in order to care for her own child, who would say she is level headed enough to make informed decision against vaccinations that are detrimental to children’s health as well as adults. Somebody has got to stand up against forced vaccinations (google the lawsuit against Bill Gates by India) If not the state or foster parent or the unfit parent -who IS supposed to protect them- God? They aren’t claiming them as their own = you’re presenting a point that gravitates one away from the real issue here – LIKE -omg!!! THEY ARE FORCING VACCINES ON US and YOU’RE NEXT ……

DCFS takes children from fit parents every day. It’s big business in the State of WA. Since we know nothing about the birth parents maybe your “obvious” is not so. Please read this story and the subsequent follow up articles.

These are not her children to make a decision not to vaccinate !

She’s not refusing to vaccinate the baby… She’s refusing to vaccinate her own children.

I appreciate that she is trying to protect these children but I find it hypocrisy that it isn’t being pointed out that these children are NOT hers! And this shows even more how the system and those involved in it are all claiming possession of and the right to make medical decisions for someone else’s children! If my children were taken from my care and placed in a foster home, it is immoral for the adults in that home to then claim those children as their own, yet that is exactly what they do-they have no intention of returning the children either! The entire system is wrong.

Seriously?  She’s not refusing to vaccinate the baby.  She does not want to vaccinate her own children.  And it says that she had fostered numerous children, one of which she adopted and is now part of her family.
