Thanks for sharing. I think you highlight the key issue for many. "Of course this wasn't immunisation but the common issue was state assumption of control over your child's body and its usurpation of your role as a parent and final arbiter of their welfare." That must have been very aggravating. "The big matter in truth was lack of information" Exactly, that should have been provided. With suitable explanation, I think very few parents would refuse injection of a vitamin. I'd say this info should be provided in advance of any need arising so that people can look into it. That's normal for informed consent, which I thought was a legal requirement. Was it a long while ago? The common fears arise because of a lack of trust. There is also misinformation by the medical establishment on vaccine issues. If they would let go of the idea that we can move towards a situation where everyone can be forced or bullied to vaccinate their children, an honest process of exchanging views, evidence and information could take place. The outcome would be a little uncertain, but I think it would be better than what we have. |
