H1N1 Vaccine - Forced Vaccination

[DawnC]

Does anyone plan on getting this vaccine? Do you plan on forcing the public to get it if orders come down? If so, I wanted to share an article I wrote. Forced vaccination is totally unconstitutional. I do hope that law enforcement officials will remember their oath and disobey their orders if need be.

Thanks for all that you do to protect and serve. The public greatly appreciates it.

Dawn, please allow me to reassure you that NO order has come down which will make vacination mandatory. I'm also not holding my breath waiting for such an order to come down. Various Government officials,at both the Federal and State levels have strongly recommended people be vacinated. In doing so, they would seem to be doing what we're paying them for. Recommendations are a far cry from forced vacination. Really think that you're worrying needlessly.

That's fine, but how about if schools refuse to let children attend unless they have been vaccinated? There is the problem that children who have the flu put other, healthy children at risk.

if you've handled a penny stamped by the US mint anytime in the last 9 months you've already been scanned and logged as someone that will be vaccinated.

resistance is futile.

LOL. However, your tinfoil hat will protect you.

Doesn't that apply only to pennies minted at the Denver Mint?

CDC's Recommendations

Who will be recommended to receive the 2009 H1N1 vaccine?

CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) has recommended that certain groups of the population receive the 2009 H1N1 vaccine when it first becomes available. These target groups include pregnant women, people who live with or care for children younger than 6 months of age, healthcare and emergency medical services personnel, persons between the ages of 6 months and 24 years old, and people ages of 25 through 64 years of age who are at higher risk for 2009 H1N1 because of chronic health disorders or compromised immune systems.

We do not expect that there will be a shortage of 2009 H1N1 vaccine, but availability and demand can be unpredictable. There is some possibility that initially the vaccine will be available in limited quantities. In this setting, the committee recommended that the following groups receive the vaccine before others: pregnant women, people who live with or care for children younger than 6 months of age, health care and emergency medical services personnel with direct patient contact, children 6 months through 4 years of age, and children 5 through 18 years of age who have chronic medical conditions.

The committee recognized the need to assess supply and demand issues at the local level. The committee further recommended that once the demand for vaccine for these target groups has been met at the local level, programs and providers should begin vaccinating everyone from ages 25 through 64 years. Current studies indicate the risk for infection among persons age 65 or older is less than the risk for younger age groups. Therefore, as vaccine supply and demand for vaccine among younger age groups is being met, programs and providers should offer vaccination to people over the age of 65.

Heck, my city is not giving it to anyone over 49. What's with that???

It's probably due to the limited supply at this time. Also, older people are at lesser risk statistically.

Because the only vaccine out for H1N1 is the Flu Mist and it can only be given to people between 2 and 49...Don't know why though.

You can avoid getting the mandatory vaccination if you wear the proper protection

That's not true. You can get a waiver for the vaccines.

Why would anyone care if you take the shot or not? Now why in the heck would anyone force you to. If you can't force and addict or mentally ill person to get help I think a flu shot isn't going to be pursued.
