Last April’s newsletter covered an outbreak of measles in Calgary. Parents of high school kids were caught off guard and were faced with choices of quarantine and/or vaccination boosters. For those high school kids who were vaccine-free, it was a challenging decision. Be sure to read it again for all the details on how to research the vaccine information and adverse reactions preparation…be informed!
There will be more outbreaks…in the vaccinated population and in the vaccine free group:
“Abstract
An outbreak of measles occurred in a high school with a documented vaccination level of 98 per cent. Nineteen (70 per cent) of the cases were students who had histories of measles vaccination at 12 months of age or older and are therefore considered vaccine failures. Persons who were unimmunized or immunized at less than 12 months of age had substantially higher attack rates compared to those immunized on or after 12 months of age. Vaccine failures among apparently adequately vaccinated individuals were sources of infection for at least 48 per cent of the cases in the outbreak. There was no evidence to suggest that waning immunity was a contributing factor among the vaccine failures.”
So whether vaccinated or not, the reality is that many kids will get measles.
Homeopathy can be used to help support healing and prevent complications, but before the outbreak happens (they will happen), be prepared. Do your research now so that you can be confident of your decision for your child when the outbreak happens. There will be pressure to vaccinate, quarantine, or both, and you will want to be well informed about why you are choosing what you are choosing for your family.
Today’s newsletter is more for ‘what to do with homeopathy’ if your child gets measles, whether they are vaccinated or not. The handout lists a few homeopathic remedies with their respective symptom picture and there is some information on the homeopathic nosode Morbillinum…made from measles.
Your other tool to have on hand?
Vaccine Free: Now What?, the 12-week teleseminar course, was created with this current situation in mind. Be confident in your choice to be vaccine free. Know the diseases. Know the possible complications of each infectious illness (whatever an illness can cause, a vaccine can cause – plus a vaccine can also cause other chronic inflammatory reactions). Know the symptoms. Know how you can use homeopathy to help support healing if your child gets an infectious illness. Know when you need medical support.
The next class starts in March and registration will open next week. Watch for more details starting next Tuesday.
Whooping cough outbreaks are happening now, measles and mumps too. And the flu vaccine this year ‘missed.’ Learn what you can do to be prepared for these ever increasing outbreaks!
Yours in health and healing,
Donna
