[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Its not about being anti or pro vaccine - its doing what is best for you child.[/b]  There have been incidents of severe complications or even death and its clearly hard for those who have not dealt with it to understand.  When you spend days in a hospital with your child due to a reaction, you will understand but by then it may be too late.  No one here is saying they do not vaccinate, but they are spreading them out which can be safer for some kids.  Use some common sense.  The safety risk is far greater if we did them all at once or exposed our chid to the shingles woman who had no common sense to get herself vaccinated and is far more worried about what others do than the choices she makes.[/quote]

Look, I have no problem with people who choose not to vaccinate or to delay vaccination.  I agree they are responsible for what's best for their children.  And I think that what is best for the school population (you know, everyone else's children) is that any unvaccinated or delayed vaccination child should not be enrolled in a public school.  If they are on a delayed schedule red-shirt them and they start school the next school year when they are caught up.  Those who opt to decline vaccination for religious reasons should either be homeschooled or be enrolled in parochial schools that support the religious exemption.  But I don't believe that any unvaccinated children should be admitted into a public school.  There are many children in public schools that have health issues or who have family members (including infant siblings) with health issues that a carrier child could infect that make unvaccinated children a significant public health issue.
