The school vaccinated my daughter with Hep-B without my knowledge or consent.
I only found out about it when she complained about pain in her arm the next day. The site had gotten infected.
Had they told me, I would’ve informed them that she has an immunodeficiency and any break in the skin needs attention.
Of course that *was* in her records at the school. The same records that they did NOT consult before giving her a jab.
A year later, Perry pulled the HPV BS and I was one of the parents losing my freaking mind.
People who weren’t there don’t know what a horrible uproar this caused.

Good enough reason not to vote for Perry. He doesn’t even realized he’s a socialist, mandating that the state knows better than the parent.
And when he was finally indicted, it was 7 years late and politically motivated.
The Hep-B jab is kinda nasty anyway. I had the first 2 shots when I was in EMT school because of the possibility of accidental occupational exposure, but reacted so badly each time I didn’t get the final one. They didn’t give me any serious guff when I declined, other than offering it each time I returned to the doc after that.
It wasn’t absolutely mandatory, but was highly recommended which made sense...no matter how careful you are, accidents can happen in that line of work.
That said...I was a consenting, informed adult who both chose to begin the series, and chose not to finish it. Pressuring a kid into it is wrong on so many levels it’s not even funny, and requiring it even more so!
