  • UPDATED: Parent’s Guide to Childhood Immunizations

    Do you know anyone, or are you, deciding whether to vaccinate your children, when to start, and how to space doses?

    It is one of the hardest calls parents face.

    The IMA thinks it deserves more than a rushed waiting-room conversation. It deserves time, information, and room to think things through.

    That’s what Dr. Elizabeth Mumper, Dr. Liz to the families she’s cared for over four decades, offers in ‘A Parent’s Guide to Childhood Vaccination Decisions.

    This feels like one of the guides you should print out and drop off at your local library and/ or doctors surgery 😊

    From my personal experience (damage…) with my own children I can only urgently advise, if you go for the measles vaccine, then take it alone! Rubella, Mumps are painful, but harmless illness and help a child to grow up. Just skip these until puberty arrives.

    Of course all (mRNA) immune therapy vaccines (Covid) are just poison and in average will shorten your life span.

    To understand some risks/benefits you can check out https://academic.oup.com/jid/article/227/11/1227/6948438.

    Pregnant woman should not take the RSV vaccine. The chance for various damage is about 30%. Most famous high blood pressure for mother besides pre term birth.

    Throughout Switzerland about 1/3 to 1/2 of the US vaccines are given to children and none are required for school.
