This 6-pillar curriculum teaches the basic literacy we need to be personally and financially successful and to do so in a manner in which together we evolve a culture that supports the emergence of an advanced human civilization.
The 1st Quarter Equity Overview looks at what has happened so far this year in the global markets and reviews variables with the potential to affect the markets in the coming months.
Good point about the plague pipeline. It’s even in their name. Moderna is a portmanteau for MODifiEd RNA.
I found a way to push back!!!!!
Frontline Health Advocates https://frontlinehealthadvocates.com/ offers Federal Waivers through the ADA for those who believe that they may have a disabling condition which would be worsened by vaccines and related injections. This waiver is granted at the federal level for children and adults. NY, CT and CA tend to make state level medical exemptions very difficult, so a federal waiver through the ADA can be especially helpful there.
Ingrid,
Although this sounds great, I am concerned about these types of organization’s promises to parents with school age kids in the California area. I have heard about parents who paid a lot of money for this exemption only to be turned down by the school. I am not sure about the other states and their success, but from my experience fighting for medical rights/vaccine exemptions since my son was injured in 2008 in California, the ADA exemptions don’t work here for K-12 education. They might be helpful for adults who work or are in universities, but there are other exemption choices for them that might be easier. I will elaborate and include links to look into below.
To explain further about the K-12 exemptions I will quote from A Voice for Choice Advocacy, an organization I have trusted since 2015.
“Are Federal Disability (ADA) Medical Exemptions valid?
In recent months, another organization has been promoting getting a federal vaccine exemption signed off by an out of state doctor stating that the student is disabled and under ADA cannot be discriminated against. The premise is that a child who cannot be vaccinated because they are allergic or have a genetic disposition against vaccination have a disability. But to be defined as disabled under federal law, your child would have to have a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities, at which point they would likely have an IEP. These promoted exemptions are expensive and AVFCA has yet to hear of one of them being accepted by a school in CA. Even if a school were to accept it, it is likely that the school vaccine records get audited and it would be rejected by CDPH. Many parents have turned to us after paying a large sum for such an exemption and the school rejecting it, asking what options they have. The key reason for a school denying it is that it is written as a Vaccine Medical Exemption which per CA law must be provided by a CA licensed MD or DO and must be submitted to the CAIR-ME system. ”
AND:
“What qualifies as a Vaccine Medical Exemption and how should it be submitted?
All Vaccine Medical Exemptions for K-12 school must be submitted into the California Immunization Registry – Medical Exemption (CAIR-ME) website (https://cair.cdph.ca.gov/exemptions/home), by an MD or DO licensed in California. They must meet Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), and American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) criteria for precautions or contraindications to vaccines (https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/acip-recs/general-recs/contraindications.html).
To file a vaccine medical exemption in CAIR-ME:
– Parents create a CAIR-ME account to request an exemption.
– The child’s physician, who must not be on probation for vaccine issues, completes and submits the exemption in CAIR-ME and provides a printed copy for the parents.
– Parents give the ME to the school and will verify them in the CAIR-ME upon submission.
It is nearly impossible to find a doctor willing to submit a vaccine medical exemption into CAIR-ME due to intense scrutiny. Even if a doctor submits one, most exemptions are revoked by the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) within weeks. Currently, CDPH reviews all exemptions submitted to CAIR-ME. If a medical exemption is revoked, it can be appealed within 30 days by submitting the child’s full medical records to CDPH, but appeals are often rejected because very few children meet the CDC guidelines for permanent contraindications to all vaccines.”
There are a couple of choices if you live in California and have children of school age:
1- Homeschool
2- Move to another state that has Religious, Philosophical or Medical Exemptions (like
California used to until 2015)”
End of quote.
As far as exemptions for adults for work or university….you can find out from A Voice for Choice Advocacy as well. I have known several people who took a course from them on how to write a religious exemption and it was accepted, even during covid. The course is $25.
I don’t recommend choosing medical when you can choose religious. Your beliefs do not have to be part of a church, it’s what you believe in that counts. The workshop will show you.
Remember, this isn’t for k-12 education, only for adults:
how to write a religious exemption: https://avoiceforchoiceadvocacy.org/product/religious-exemption-workshop/
There is also a famous attorney that took on vaccine exemptions decades ago and was treated terribly by the legal system. His information is still top notch and he consults on various cases if needed: https://vaccinerights.com/index.html
I hope this helps clarify this difficult subject. Maybe these federal exemptions work for some but in K-12 education in California, they do not. Like I mentioned before, I would write a religious exemption before I would write a medical. The privacy issues alone if the medical one is challenged can be awful. Keep it simple.
I have two boys here in California. We had philosophical exemptions for both until that exemption was removed by the State in 2015. A Voice for Choice Advocacy is fighting to get that back in a lawsuit here: https://avoiceforchoiceadvocacy.org/avfca-litigation/
There are so many organizations doing good work. I only mention this AVFCA because I have witnessed their good work and successful exemptions for a lot of friends and family during the covid nightmare and before. I am sure this other organization means well I just want to give the Solari family the 411 on what I have seen work in the past. Do your due diligence, ask to talk to people who the exemptions have worked for in the past, that has always helped me.
We homeschool and love it. It isn’t easy but it’s the best thing we have ever done for our family.
Have a wonderful week,
Jennifer
Hi Jennifer,
While I appreciate your lived experience as a CA mom, you leave out a number of options.
1.Using a federal waiver to help secure an IEP.
2. Enrolling high school age students who are home-schooled in community college.
3. Get a waiver for preschool and then if children do get injections it will be at an older age where they can better handle it and the catch-up schedule usually requires fewer doses.
4.Federal waivers preempt state medical exemptions. People do fight for the law. Todd Callender, Esq specializes in vaccine exemptions even with filing with the Supreme Court, and could be a resource.
Frontline Health Advocates put themselves out there as does any health professional speaking out. I want to emphasize they are not in it for the money.
Godspeed,
Ingrid
