Tips for Parents Vaccinating their Children Today
By Barbara Coppo, author of The Boy in the Window

For parents feeling skeptical about their child’s routine vaccinations, here are some precautionary measures to follow based on data from the National Vaccine Information Center. Although there were no predetermining factors in Kenny Coppo’s history, this list can be helpful in preventing a negative outcome for your child. There are victims of vaccine damage from bad batches, mercury levels and babies whose blood brain barriers were not mature enough to deal with the toxins in the shots. It is important to discuss all of these items with your child’s doctor.

1. Make sure your baby has not been sick with numerous colds or ear infections in the months prior to receiving vaccinations.
2. Don't vaccinate if there is a history of seizures on either side of family.
3. Wait until baby is older before vaccines and give smaller dosages.
4. Don't agree to extra combinations of vaccines to save time and money.
5. Ask for the Japanese version of 'pertussis'.
6. Wait until premature babies have caught up with their weight and health.
7. Make sure there is no mercury in vaccines.
8. Don't be quick to get routine shots just because they say they are required. Ask questions.
9. Don't vaccinate if there are extreme milk allergies in the family.
10. Ask for the lot number of the vaccine in case there is a problem later.
