TALKING POINTS [Please personalize your messages to your legislators by including your vaccine reaction, death or harassment experiences and how your child’s health and safety would be endangered with passage of this bill by the state intercepting and rejecting legitimate medical exemptions based on your child’s and family health history as determined by your child’s doctor, not standard of care.]

OPPOSE SB 276!

Senate Bill 276 is designed to greatly reduce the number of families who can take a lifesaving medical vaccine exemption.

Do not be fooled by recent amendments! They do not address the fundamental problems with this bill.

SB 276 still betrays the promise made by legislators to the people in 2015 to protect the medical vaccine exemption. The removal of the personal belief vaccine exemption in 2015 (SB 277) was met with strong public opposition. The bill only passed after legislators assured parents that doctors would be allowed to exercise professional judgment and conscience when granting a medical vaccine exemption to children. The requirements that the exemption be certified under penalty of perjury and medical board scrutiny and review will deter doctors from writing medical exemptions.

The doctor-patient relationship is built on trust by the patient that the doctor will, first, do no harm. SB 276 still interferes in the private doctor-patient relationship and prevents a doctor from being free to exercise professional judgment and conscience in protecting the patient from harm when granting a medical vaccine exemption without bureaucratic arbitrary restrictions and limits.

State public health officials should not have power to override the judgment of private physicians. SB 276 inappropriately places the granting or withholding of medical vaccine exemptions for patients in the hands of state employees, rather than in the hands of private physicians who personally care for patients.

There is individual susceptibility to vaccine reactions and vaccine providers cannot reliably predict who will be harmed. SB 276 forces doctors and other vaccine providers to adhere to narrow vaccine contraindications and withhold medical vaccine exemptions from potentially susceptible children, who could die or be severely injured by vaccines mandated for daycare and school.

SB 276 is bad public health law. This bill compromises the doctor-patient relationship, creates fear and distrust of public health officials and legislators, violates parental and informed consent rights, violates privacy rights by forcing the recording of medical exemptions into the state vaccine tracking system, and endangers the lives of children more susceptible to vaccine reactions for genetic, biological and environmental reasons that have not been fully identified by the federal government. These vulnerable children should not be punished by the state and denied a school education.

Vote NO on SB 276!

Leaving a lucrative career as a nephrologist (kidney doctor), Dr. Suzanne Humphries is now free to actually help cure people.

In this autobiography she explains why good doctors are constrained within the current corrupt medical system from practicing real, ethical medicine.

One of the sane voices when it comes to examining the science behind modern-day vaccines, no pro-vaccine extremist doctors have ever dared to debate her in public.
