Thank you for sharing! I love this quote from 2018 from RFK Jr

"My opposition to new meningitis mandates for every New York State seventh and twelfth grader has nothing to do with autism and everything to do with arithmetic ("Meningitis shot to be rule for schools," Oct. 28). Meningitis is a rare disease that affects only 390 people nationally last year.

FDA and industry testing show the meningitis vaccine to be unusually low efficacy and high risk.

The manufacturers" inserts predict that 1% to 1.3% of inoculated children will suffer "serious adverse effects." CDC's Pink Book forecasts that 0.3% of these will die from the vaccine. Of the 400,000 New York school children inoculated annually, some 4,000 will become ill and nine will die in order to prevent around four people from contracting the disease. At between $84 and $117 per shot, and with the requirement for a two-shot series, the law is an $80 million annual windfall for vaccine manufacturers at taxpayer expense.

This math makes sense only to the pharmaceutical companies and the Albany politicians who have taken their money." - Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Wow! Each day you just make my brain go to work. I remember odd things and illnesses that happen to friends over the years. Including my neighbor that nearly died from meningitis. (She was a smoker-BTW)

Now that I’m awake I just can’t stop from seeing all the coincidences happening with family, friends and my neighbors health over the years. Especially, the last 5 years!

Have you heard of the book by Darrell Huff, How to lie w/statistics?

Interestingly, I know who must have read it, because back in 2020 they seemed to interview him all the time on TV in the background on his bookshelf was this book. ( B. gates)

Can you direct me as to how best to secure a religious exemption for the freshman college requirement? I live in Alabama and my son is starting college this fall.

Hi Susanna. NVIC.org has a page for each state. You can get to that page for Alabama here: https://www.nvic.org/law-policy-state/vaccine-laws-alabama

I would strongly recommend registering with nvicadvocacy.org and joining the Alabama team. They will be able to advise you best on how to protect your son.
