About the Hep B vaccine, all babies normally get the first Hep B vaccine in the first hours of life. This is for a disease that you can only get as follows (courtesy of HealthyChildren.org):

- During birth (if the mother has HBV)

- Sharing personal items, such as razors or toothbrushes, with a person who is infected

- Having unprotected sex with a ­person who is infected

- Injecting or shooting drugs using a needle with infected blood -- Infection through direct contact with infected blood may occur.

- Some children may also become infected with HBV while living in the same household as a person with a lifelong form of the infection.

If the baby will be in an environment in which he or she will have unprotected sex (but only a problem with an infected person), do drugs with someone (but only a problem with an infected person), or live with a family member that might share some infectable bodily fluids, your baby will not be able to contract Hep B, so there should be no fear around NOT getting the Hep B vaccine at birth.

I personally got the Hep B vaccine in my 30s, and it was just on a whim. One out of every 279 people in the US has this disease, with a much higher amount among illegals.

I encourage an alternate vaccine schedule (Dr. Sears) and consideration of not doing Hep B until rather older.

I realize what I say above is a bit audacious, but the Medical Establishment pushes the Hep B vaccine as the very first vaccine for all humankind, yet, it is only a remote concern, at best. As long as medical staff and family members do not both have Hep B AND do the disgusting, illegal behavior with your baby, your baby is not at risk.

But, you never know, apparently, and that’s why your baby gets that vaccine, before their first day of breathing air is over.

The “Take Charge Of Your Health” Ping List

This potentially high volume ping list is for health articles and studies which describe something you or your doctor, when informed, may be able to implement for your benefit.

Now keeping a new list (“Common/Top Issues”) for conditions expected to only concern at least 1% of the population. Ask to be on either the “Common/Top Issues” or “Everything” list.

Please email or private message me if you want on or off of a list and of which list you desire.

The number of vaccines, and drugs in general, that are advertised is mind numbing.

If my doctor suggests a vaccine, we can talk about it. I’m not going to him and suggesting prescriptions or vaccines. I prefer to avoid both.
