Dr. Ruben on the FDA panel: "We're never gonna learn about how safe the vaccine is until we start giving it. That's just the way it goes."

If you haven’t yet, I would suggest finding out the vaccine requirements for your child’s school. Most states have vaccine exemptions, however the process may differ if your state is under emergency orders.

Here are some great resources to find your State’s exemption forms/process. Be sure to click on the red button “Tap to Select a State” to find yours.

Find out now the consent process for your school district. Some states have “implied consent” which means if you send your child to school during a vaccination clinic, it is implied you consent to them receiving the vaccine. Here is the World Health Organization’s definition of implied consent (page 3):

Parents, get ahead of this now. Your child’s education should not be contingent upon if they accept a medical product with this much known (and unknown) risk.

Also, flu shot clinics will most likely be pushed at your child’s school as well. Understand there is zero data on the safety or effectiveness of both shots being administered at the same time or in short intervals. Learn about various flu shots here:

Benefits will always outweigh risks when they are unknown.
