Vaccinations

I know this is a topic under fire, however Cameron has all of his and got them regularly. Including the Flu shot and H1N1. I work with a bunch of dirty, gross, sick children. Of which, 8 have had H1N1! 8 STUDENTS IN MY CLASS! I am not going down with that yucky sickness, and I am not letting my family go down with it either.

Here is a post my friend BECKY wrote about the topic. I couldn't agree more. In fact, I wrote an open letter to the person that she is referring to in this blog post. Here is a copy of it, (with names changed for protection) for your enjoyment:

Open letter to Amy:
Well, I hope your kid doesn't get measles and die someday. Or pass it on to a bunch of kids and then it mutates and kills even more people including all of the children

Also Amy, remember when you stabbed your leg because Kevin Arnold dumped you? I do. I bet you were glad you got that tetanus shot because you used a dirty knife to stab your leg.

Regards, Jennifer

I am totally with you on this one! I don't have kids to vaccinate, but I am around enough sickly ones (that keep passing on their darn cold bugs to me) that I don't understand why you wouldn't prevent even worse sicknesses.
Also after working at a humane society (I know they aren't kids) I have seen how insanely fast a disease can spread with a group that isn't regularly vaccinated. Funny, my well vaccinated animals never caught anything I might have brought home, hmmmm....
