[quote=Anonymous]I got pertussis from a "delayed vaccination" child while I was pregnant. I'm thrilled with the parent's choice to inflict her do-what's-best-for-ME policies on me and my unborn child. And just so you don't think I'm insensitive to the issue: I had severe reactions to vaccines which landed me in the hospital on several occasions as a child. I had great trepidation about vaccines as a result. In the end I just did my homework. Not having my child or my friends' children die from measles, contract polio, or end up in the emergency room with pertussis stopped my mental wrangling. Given my recent experience with pertussis I'm very firmly on the side of the health codes in DC. If you were at my school I would register a formal complaint, and potentially even leave the school. As PP said, all of this is centrally registered. First it is screened by the school nurse and then it is sent to the Dept of Health. DC is not big on waivers, either.[/quote]
