Nope, money didn’t come up at all.
It took some nagging to get the family ped to admit that their ‘concern’ for kids may have had more to do with monetary remuneration.
It was confirmed by a ped specialist who is a family friend. His kids after the second, who seized on the table literally 1m after his first DTaP shot (which the nurse tried to tell him was the baby ‘stretching’ and they sometimes ‘did that after getting a shot) are all unvaccinated. The kid that seized after his vaccine is autistic. I’m sure that’s a coincidence. Said MD had to homeschool his brood of 8 kids to avoid the mandatory schedule in this state. A surprising number of the homeschoolers in this state are MD’s kids for that reason.
Until the very enlightening conversation with the ped specialist I had no idea that ANY MD’s didn’t totally vax their kids. Having discussed this with a few more I’ve come to the conclusion that the ped practices use the 5% ‘waiver’ for their kids and families.
